Extra
Jarrow Formulaspharmaceutical grade, stabilized SAM-e Joint offers a full 200 mgelemental SAM-e and 525 mg of Glucosamine hydrochloride in everyenteric-coated tablet. SAM-e Joint is manufactured under lowtemperature and low humidity and is enteric-coated to ensure abiologically active product. SAM-e and Glucosamine are known to benefitjoint function and recuperation.

SAM-e
Found in all living cells, SAM-e is a metabolite ofmethionine (an essential amino acid). SAM-e is a chiral molecule andtherefore consists of two forms: (S,S) SAM-e and (R,S) SAM-e. Thebiologically active form is the (S,S) structure, while the (R,S)structure is biologically inactive. jarrow Formula's SAM-e is madenaturally by microbiological fermentation and then specially processedwithout solvents to preserve 68-80% (S,S) SAM-e, the highest activelevel available.

Glucosamine
Glucosamine is an aminosaccharide synthesizes bytransamidase enzymes from glucose and an amine group from glutamine.HCl (hydrochloric acid) stabilizes the Glucosamine in thisproduct. Glucosamine is a component of joint and intestinal tissue andis involved in the production of synovial fluid which lubricates thejoints.

SAM-e has undergone dozens of trials involving thousands of patients.Researchers studying the beneficial effects of SAM-e have identifiedthe following benefits of SAM-e:

Joint Strength
SAM-e supports the production of healthy connectivetissue through transulfuration. In this process, critical components ofconnective tissue, including glucosamine and the chondroitin sulfates,are sulfated by SAM-e metabolites.

Brain Metabolism
SAM-e methylation reactions are involved in the synthesis ofneurotransmitters such as L-dopa, dopamine and related hormones,epinephrine and phosphatidylcholine (a component of lecithin).

Longevity
Methylation of DNA appears to be important in thesupression of errors in DNA replication. Demethylation of DNA isconsidered a contributor to the aging process. Proper methylationthrough substances such as SAM-e positively influences longevity.

Liver
SAM-e metabolism supports the synthesis of glutathione(GSH) and glutathione-dependent enzymes (glutathione peroxidase andglutathione-S-transferase), which are substances important for liverfunction.

Full potency 200 mg elemental SAM-e is derived from 400 mg of tosylatedisulfate SAM-e.
