DMG supports methylation, methionine metabolism, folate chemistry and is an immune system modulator.  DMG is a non-protein amino acid present in plant and animal cells.  The chemical structure of DMG is a glycine molecule holding onto two methyl groups.  DMG is considered a “methyl donor” or “methyl bank.”  In the body, with the help of a coenzyme of riboflavin, DMG supplies methyl groups that attach to folic acid to form methylene tetrahydrofolate, an important component of many biochemical processes in the body, including cellular perception and response.  It is also involved in maintaining healthy homocysteine levels.
