This is used as a detox agent because it contains sulfur. Sulfur is one of the best ways to neutralize heavy metals. It also converts to a compound called SAM-e (s-Adenosyl-L-Methionine). SAM-e helps counter the effects of heavy metals by easing joint pain and by boosting your mood so you can think more clearly.
Suggested Dosage: 50 mg daily of DL-Methionine
