SAMe in the body works with a methyl donor from food. Things like Beets. If you don't like them, you can buy supplements with glycine in them. TMG (trimethylglycine) is one and glycine is another.

The 3 B's, folate, B12, pyridoxal work to make SAMe but the methyl donor has to be there to attach to the homocysteine molecule. So a lack of glycine would slow that down.

I am glad this is working for you... that is a pretty fast response. You might have been very low.
I hope beets is not part of the cruciferous group.

I will check on this tomorrow.

Thank you.

P.S. Definitely, I will continue taking SAM-e!!!!!
