Product information "Betaine HCL 2600mg daily intake - 180 capsules, vegan"
Betaine hydrochloride: interesting vitaminoid containing hydrochloric acid
The name betaine is derived from the Latin name of the sugar beet: Beta vulgaris, in which betaine can be found. The substance is on oxidation product of choline. Good sources are quinoa, sugar beets, beetroot, rye, spinach, wheat, potatoes and beef.
The vitamin-like substance is closely related to the amino acid glycine, from which it is a derivative. The conventional synonym for betaine makes it clear: trimethylglycine. This name also tells us that betaine contains three methyl groups.
The most important property of betaine is its ability to break down homocysteine. Homocysteine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid (component of proteins). Homocysteine occurs in the metabolism by demethylation of the essential amino acid methionine. By means of methylation and betaine it can be converted to methionine.
S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) is created as a by-product during this process. All that's left of betaine is dimethylglycine, which becomes pangamic acid.
