Description

DL-Methionine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is essential for healthy protein synthesis. Methionine can be synthesized by the human body, but it must be consumed through diet. DL-Methionine has been shown to have anti-obesity properties in vitro and in vivo models. It also helps maintain normal levels of calcium and pantothenate in the blood and supports the function of the immune system. DL-Methionine may also have effects on locomotor activity, body mass index, and peptide hormones.
