L-Methionine is an essential sulfur-containing amino acid. Amino acids play central roles both as building blocks of proteins and as intermediates in metabolism. It is involved in the formation of many substances containing protein as well as providing sulphur; a substance that is required for the production of the body's most abundant natural anti-oxidant, glutathione.
L-methionine influence many functions within the body as one of the building blocks for several critical proteins and hormones, for example, L-Carnitine, adrenaline, choline and melatonine.
L-methionine is also responsible for the reduction of the level of histamine in the blood, which is why it can positively affect the symptoms of allergies. In addition, it is important for the regulation of the acid-base balance and provides sulphur atoms for various chemical processes such as detoxification of heavy metals through the formation of complexes.
