Homocyst capsules
Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is produced in the body as a breakdown product during methionine metabolism. As with many other breakdown products, an increased level leads to an imbalance in the body. Our body has various ways of maintaining a balanced homocysteine level in the body and thus compensating for the negative aspects of an imbalance.
With the help of vitamin B6, the body converts homocysteine into cysteine, which can then be excreted via the kidneys. Our body is also able to convert homocysteine back into methionine with the help of folic acid and vitamin B12 and thus reuse it. The enzyme methionine synthase, which requires vitamin B12 as a coenzyme, is also involved in this. Another degradation pathway takes place in the liver and kidneys, where homocysteine is converted to methionine with the help of betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase.
These degradation pathways and conversion processes, which help us to keep the homocysteine level in the body at a balanced level, are therefore dependent on the presence of sufficient enzymes and a sufficient amount of folic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and betaine. The B vitamins in particular are particularly popular when taken as a complex because they reinforce each other's effects.
Choline, folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 therefore contribute to normal homocysteine metabolism.
