CBS / BHMT Assist by Professional Health Products ( PHP ) 60 Capsules
CBS/BHMT Assist (HomCyst) is a formulation that contains nutrients that help support the enzymes Cystathionine-ß-synthase and Betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase. CBS catalyzes the first step of the transsulfuration pathway, converting homocysteine into cystathionine. Elevated homocysteine levels are associated with a myriad of chronic health conditions including cardiovascular disease. The BHMT enzyme catalyzes a methyl transfer from betaine to homocysteine to form dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. Methionine is needed to produce our body’s primary methyl donor, SAMe. Genetic polymorphisms and epigenetic factors can cause these enzymes to function improperly, leading to high homocysteine and low SAMe. The nutrients contained in this product such as N-Acetyl L-Carnitine, Yucca, Lecithin and Trimethylglycine can help support these very important biological reactions.
