About Pharma-Nord Bio-Methionine
The methionine supplement produced by Pharma-Nord, Bio-Methionine 500mg is manufactured under Danish pharmaceutical control, and contains 500mg of methionine in the most bio-active form (l-methionine). The recommended intake is 1-2 tablets (500-1000mg) daily. As amino acid supplements are most effectively absorbed when they do not have to compete with amino acids from the digestion of high protein foods, this supplement is best taken at least one and a half hours before meals (first thing in the morning or at bedtime may be best). This product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and is sugar, yeast and gluten free.
