MethionineIt is a principle supplier of sulfur which prevents disorders of the hair, skin and nails. Methionine also influences hair follicles and promotes hair growth. It helps lower cholesterol levels by increasing the liver's production of lecithin. Furthermore, it belongs to a group of compounds called lipotropics, or chemicals that help the liver process fats (lipids) and protects the kidneys. It is a natural chelating agent for heavy metals and regulates the formation of ammonia and creates ammonia-free urine which reduces bladder irritation.
