SAMe is formed naturally in the body from the amino acid methionine and the energy molecule ATP. It is one of the most widely studied compounds of its kind and has been researched by many scientists. Taking it as an enteric-coated tablet is the standard approach, as SAMe is sensitive to moisture and stomach acid. Two pack sizes make it easy to choose between trying it out and stocking up.
