SAMe And Cognitive Health
The decreased methylation and the low availability of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) that occurs in brain aging are closely linked with alteration of brain and cognitive functions and may involve nerve cell deterioration. Age-associated neurological impairment can have a variety of forms including memory loss, senility, and dementia.
Supplementation of SAMe may improve mood and cognitive measures, support brain and neuronal health and boost the levels of antioxidants produced like glutathione (GSH).
Deep Dive Into SAMe
Research studies over the past five decades have unequivocally established the importance of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe). An endogenously produced compound that plays a critical role in cellular metabolism and function, SAMe is second only to ATP as the most important molecule in cell biology.
