Present in all living cells, SAM-e is a metabolite of methionine (an essential amino acid). SAM-e is a chiral molecule and consists of two forms: (S,S)SAM-e and (R,S)SAM-e. The biologically active form is the (S,S) structure, while the (R,S) structure is biologically inactive. Jarrow Formulas SAM-e is naturally manufactured by microbiological fermentation and then specially processed without chemical solvents to preserve 68-80% (S,S)SAM-e, the highest active level available.
SAM-e has been clinically proven to have the following benefits:
Joint strength
SAM-e supports the production of healthy connective tissue through transulfuration. In this process, critical components of connective tissue, known as glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), including glucosamine and chondroitin, are sulfated by SAM-E metabolites to yield sulfated GAGs, such as glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate.
