Methionine-200 provides a supplemental source of the sulphur-bearing amino acids methionine, lysine, and cysteine. L-methionine is essential for human health, and in addition to being a sulfur-containing amino acid, it also functions as a methyl donor, giving off a methyl group as needed for a variety of chemical and metabolic reactions in the body. In the liver, methionine is converted into SAMe (S-adenosyl methionine). Strict vegetarians or persons on a low-protein diet may benefit from additional methionine in their diet. Additionally, advanced age is associated with a loss of methionine sulfoxide reductase activities in several tissues, thus a supplemental source of methionine may be advantageous for this population. Methionine and cysteine protein residues are particularly sensitive to oxidation by ROS, which is also impacted by age.
