Arthritis & Mood Supplement
USAGE: Take 1 to 2 tablets per day on an empty stomach, or as directed
by your qualified health consultant.
WARNING: Individuals using prescribed medications such as antidepressants,
including Serotonin Re-Uptake Inhibitors and MAO Inhibitors, should consult a
physician before using. Individualswith bi-polar disorder or manic depression should
not use SAM-e.
Jarrow Formulas' SAM-e 200 is foil blister-packed to maximize stability and safety.
Do not use if outer seal of blister pack is broken. Full Potency 200mg elemental
SAM-e is derived from 400mg of tosylate disulfate SAM-e.
Store in a cool, dry place.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Jarrow Formulas' SAM-e 200 pharmaceutical grade, stabilized SAM-e is a full 200mg
elemental SAM-e from 400mg of SAM-e tosylate disulfate. SAM-e 200 is manufactured
under low temperature and low humidity and is enteric-coated to ensure a biologically
active product.
SAM-e is a chiral molecule and therefore consists of two forms: (S,S) SAM-e and (R,S)
SAM-e. The biologically active form is the (S,S) structure, while the (R,S) structure
is biologically inactive. Jarrow Formulas' SAM-e is made naturally by microbiological
fermentation and then specially processed to preserve 68-80% (S,S) SAM-e, the highest
active level available.
SAM-e (S-Adenosylmethionine) is an amino acid derivative that has been clinically
proven to benefit brain and joint function. Found in all living cells, SAM-e is also
called activated methionine (an essential amino acid) since it is formed by the
combining of ATP with methionine. SAM-e has undergone dozens of trials involving
thousands of patients. Researchers studying the beneficial effects of SAM-e have
identified the following benefits of SAM-e:
Joint Strength
SAM-e supports the production of healthy connective tissue through transulfuration.
In this process, critical components of connective tissue, including glucosamine and
the chondroitin sulfates, are sulfated by SAM-e metabolites.
Brain Metabolism
SAM-e methylation reactions are involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such
as L-dopa, dopamine and related hormones, epinephrine and phosphatidylcholine
(a component of lecithin).
Liver
SAM-e metabolism supports the synthesis of glutathione (GSH) and glutathione-dependent
enzymes (glutathione peroxidase and glutathione-S-transferase), which are substances
important for liver function.
Longevity
Methylation of DNA appears to be important in the suppression of errors in DNA
replication. Demethylation of DNA is considered a contributor to the aging process.
Proper methylation through substances such as SAM-e positively influences longevity.
