Methionine serves as the primary supplier of methyl radicals in the body, delivered in the form of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), which is subsequently transformed into S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH)
Standard oral supplements often result in very low bioavailability the amount of a substance that actually enters circulation and becomes active in the body
