For those individuals who prefer a flavored powder which can be mixed with food or drink, Kirkman offers TMG with Folic Acid and Vitamin B-12. The product has a pleasant sweet taste. Basically, Trimethylglycine (TMG) is Dimethylglycine (DMG) with one more methyl group. The chemical structure of TMG is therefore is actually a glycine molecule holding onto three methyl groups, so like DMG, TMG is considered a "methyl donor" or methyl "bank". The additional methyl group actually makes TMG a more active methyl donor than DMG which is a benefit in some individuals. TMG can support the formation of methionine by methylating homocysteine. Some of this methionine eventually is converted into SAMe (S-adenosylmthionine), which can help maintain healthy serotonin levels in the body and support mood and well-being. As with DMG, TMG in the body, with the help of a coenzyme of riboflavin, supplies methyl groups which attach to folic acid to form methylene tetrahydrofolate, an important component of many biochemical processes in the body including cellular perception and response.
