Mood enhancement – CELLFOOD SAM-e functions by donating its methyl group to CNS receptors which increases the activity and production of the mood-boosting neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, and nerepinephrine (serotonin is the neurotransmitter that drugs like Prozac elevate).

Joint health – CELLFOOD SAM-e supports sulfate groups’ absorption into glycoproteins, which help maintain cartilage and protect joints. Cysteine and glutathione are by-products of this absorption process and have potent inflammation and pain reducing properties. Nearly 14 million Americans that suffer from chronic pain and inflammation use drugs like aspirin, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen (Tylenol). In arthritis strength dosages, these nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID's) have devastating side effects. Over 100,000 Americans are hospitalized annually from NSAID induced ulcers and more than 16,000 die. In a dozen clinical trails with more than 22,000 patients, researchers found SAM-e as effective as pharmaceutical treatments for pain and inflammation, without any signs of digestive tract damage, sexual dysfunction, dry mouth, or nausea.

Liver health - In the liver, CELLFOOD SAM-e supports GSH production and uptake, which is mainly responsible for removing dangerous toxins from the body. Because of the liver's continuous battle against toxins, adequate concentrations of glutathione are crucial to survival. Damage occurs when the liver is so overwhelmed by toxins that it cannot produce enough glutathione. Part of that concentration burden falls to SAM-e, which is a necessary component of glutathione’s creation.
