What is SAM-e?
S-Adenosyl Methionine (SAM-e) is produced by the body from ATP and the amino acid methionine and is one of the most important methyl donors in the central nervous system. Methylation (donation of methyl groups) is an essential process in ensuring the proper function of a number of organ systems. SAM-e is involved in numerous biochemical reactions in tissue including the liver, joints and brain. SAM-e is also required for the synthesis of critical neurotransmitters and hormones. Doctor's Best SAM-e has been shown to support mood, brain health and mental focus. It is essential for the healthy metabolism of the major brain transmitters' dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine. In addition, SAM-e supports joint comfort and mobility as well as supporting liver health and detoxification. SAM-e effectiveness has been published in 18 controlled human studies published over 40 years. Doctor's Best SAM-e uses pharmaceutical grade materials. SAM-e is optimized for potency, stability, and to survive the stomach acid and reach the intestine (where it is absorbed).Ingredients

Frequently asked questions
SAM-e (S-Adenosyl Methionine) is a compound your body produces naturally from the amino acid methionine, acting as a helper molecule for an unusually wide range of enzymes involved in mood-related brain chemistry, cellular methylation, and liver function. This formula supplies SAM-e as the tosylate disulfate salt - the form most widely used in the available research - at 400mg per enteric-coated tablet.
SAM-e is broken down by stomach acid before it can be absorbed, so the tablets are coated to survive the stomach and release further down in the intestine, where uptake happens. This is also why the tablets shouldn't be chewed or crushed - doing so defeats the coating.
Follow the label's suggested use - typically one tablet, between meals, adjusted only with guidance from a nutritionally-informed physician. It's supplied in blister packs to protect the tablets' stability and freshness.
It’s formulated to support a positive, balanced mood; normal cognitive function; joint comfort and mobility; healthy liver function; and the body's natural methylation processes, which touch everything from cell renewal to hormone production.
If you're on antidepressant medication, speak with your prescribing doctor before starting. Not recommended if you have bipolar disorder, as it may worsen manic symptoms. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. A small number of people notice mild digestive upset when starting out. Store in a cool, dry place.
