I started taking TMG for my high blood pressure. Homocysteine may cause hypertension in some people. My blood pressure was always around 155/90. Getting it check 2 times a week for about 2 months. 2 days after taking it was at 149/84. This is week 2 im at 138/81.
Looks like you're seeing improvements. Glad it's making a difference! Thanks for sharing your own personal experience.
What dosage did you take for your blood pressure? Thanks
What dosage?
Thanks I needed to hear this. I have idiopathic high blood pressure. I’m gonna see if this helps
@@JTJaredTaylorhow much dose tmg to take with niacinamide
I started taking NAD for my thyroid fatigue, and it made me EXTREMELY sleepy. Come to find out, I needed TMG to help out with my methylation.
U will develop cancer
And B12 / B6 and foliate
Did NAD + help you? I'm starting it today.
@@jaytrue1137 add mnm
For optimal effectiveness, TMG should be taken alongside its co-factor vitamins: B12, B6, and folic acid.
I read that males who take B6 and B12 suppliments increase their chances of getting prostate cancer.
Correction :Folate not folic acid. And p5p
I was taking the whole pill I was getting a bad headache and I started cutting in half after that I stop getting headaches.
Just imagine if we started taking every supplement on the market that supposedly improves health outcomes. #1 I would be broke
#2 I don’t have enough space to store all those supplements
#3 I wouldn’t have enough time to do other necessary activities throughout the day, because I would be too busy taking supplements.
Exactly….its crazy these days
Sometimes, its just noise. I take GlyNAC, Taurine, Creatine, TMG, Magnesium and Zinc. Fish oil. And thats very little compared to most people
Just imagine if anyone cared what you think.
@@sicmic Its called humour. Imagine if you had it?
@@deansusec8745I take exactly what you take, except I also take collagen. Time for you to add another supplement. Lol
I take a lot of supplements. At what point is "enough is enough"? 200 capsules, pills and powder per day? And what of adverse interactions between the supplement cocktail I'm ingesting each day? I also see a lot of "can", "may", "should", "might", etc. describing the supplements. That's not scientific, it borders on guess work. And the cost for all of these supplements gets prohibitive.
people are different. they have different genetic polymorphisms. so the mechanism is there for it to reduce homocysteine, which is correlated with several diseases .but he cant make blanket statements for the entire population. people with liver problems should mot take alot of iburporfen, also if their a stroke risk.but ppl use it everyday. maybe hire a functional medicine practitioner & u can be screened & see whats right for u.
@DOCB-op1qc's advice (above) to get a (thorough baseline) screen (DNA even) by a *reputable* functional medicine specialist is a good one.
It really helps you decide where to focus your energy and budget.
It's best to be educated and in the know about your own body, than taking everything recommended off of UA-cam.
It will cost dollars - but look at it like an investment in YOU - not a cost.
It’s an EXCELLENT question and I appreciate you making us think about it. Much appreciated!
I'd have a mild headache onset within minutes of taking 1000mg TMG. Four days after starting it I woke up in the middle of the night with a monsterous headache so I quit taking it.
Quiters are evil 😈 doers! 😶
Thanks for sharing your own personal experience. Sorry to hear it wasn't a positive experience for you.
If the onset is within minutes it must be a nocebo effect. Pills just don't enter your blood stream and brain fast enough to have an effect so quickly.
Me too!!!!! Just left a separate comment on this
Here's an idea....stop taking a full gram of the stuff. Lower the freaking dose and then gradually increase. If you're having issues then obviously it's too much
Im on the beta blocker propranolol 40mg twice a day for my anxiety/palpitations. Im going to give this a go as i dont want to be on beta blockers my whole life.
I hope it helps John. Good luck to you.
Any updates?
Any updates?
Just a quick update, I'm now down to 1 propranolol a day instead of 2. For some reason, my palpitations come back, but it has definitely made a difference. I'm going to keep taking tmg and hopefully will be able to come of the beta blockers. I will update in 2 weeks again.
@John21690 I get palpations from gut issues which is linked to the meds. I know this because there's been times I stopped taking meds for weeks and my digestion was good and no palpations
No idea why but TMG supplement gives me a headache !!!
In beef too ….
I started taking TMG and methyl folate after understanding I have the MHTFR gene. What time of the day do you recommend taking TMG? I took 500mg it this morning around 8am and it feels like it has some sluggish feeling effects so much so that I took a 45min nap at 3pm. Anyone else experience that?
Hey Greg, I haven't experienced what you've described personally. I generally take TMG later in the day. If it's making you fell sluggish it may be best to take it in the evening. Glycine can have a calming effect and many people like to take it at night before bed because it helps them sleep. Hope that helps.
Guys, just take all the supplements. They all work...
Dose and name of supplement
Is it okay to take magnesium along with TMG?
Should be just fine. I do.
Great video. Very interesting
Thank you very much.
I have been taking 3000 mg of TMG every morning for a few weeks. I now have bad insomnia. I often lay awake until it’s time to go to work. Could TMG be causing this?
Most probably, Start from a low dose like 500mg then gradually increase. Also don't take any TMG after late afternoon.
@@bindasamol007that’s odd because the instruction book I got with the pure tmg pills says to take 30 mins before bed
Есть ли у него неприятный тухлый запах ?
No
Thanks! What us the difference between dmg and tmg?
I have two copies of MTHFR, take 400 mg of folate,1,000 mcg of Adeno/Hydroxo B12 sublingual,100 mcg B6,Thiamine,vitamin d. I have high triglycerides,high A1C/glucose (insulin resistance),high CRP level(inflammation coming from the liver),high AST (liver test),I have hypothyroidism and I need to lose about 200 pounds. I ordered TMG 500 mg today. Is 500 mg a low dose of TMG? I want to start at a very low dose. 😊
Recommendations for TMG dosage seem to range from 500mg to 3grams per day. So, yes you are on the lower end of the range with 500mg. If you want to start with an even lower dose you could consider splitting that in half and start with that. Hope that helps.
Ômega 3 downs triglycerides
TMG even at low doses ups triglycerides even more I.e. thick blood. it does more harm than good
I’ve started taking it and have started to have a lot of gut issues.
You were probably taking Betaine HCL and not betaine TMG. They are quite different despite the name
I have High LDL and B/P should I take TMG? Thanks
Great question. My understanding is that some studies have shown that TMG supplements could increase levels of total and LDL. If you plan to take TMG it would be a good idea to monitor your LDL levels and see if it is effected. Just to be sure. Hope that helps.
what is nmn?
It is a natural molecule that our body can use to produce NAD+ Here's a video that will hopefully help explain that for you: ua-cam.com/video/CI17vHAXOh8/v-deo.html
TMG at 3 grams a day wiped out my libido.
Sorry to hear it. Thanks for sharing. I wonder if others have experienced that as well.
Same here. Caused a flaccid reaction.
Would you also add urolithin A. Nit sure which to use?
I would and have. I'm not taking urolithin A currently but am considering it again.
TMG can cause insomnia racing heart and elevated cholesterol and water retention
Thank you for adding this.
At what levels would you need to take for these symptoms to show please?
I get chest pain from it.
Can you please cite your sources? I was reading that cholesterol levels are increased by 3-6% with dosages between 4-6g per day
It gave me anxiety
Ahhh I love the Psych reference haha
Haha! I was hoping someone would appreciate that. 😁
if my body makes it, and i supplement it, wouldnt that stop my body from making it?
Negative, this is not always the case.
Please tell me. For muscle growth, to increase protein synthesis. How should I take betaine? Every day or only on training days? Take before and after workout or throughout the day?
I think you're over thinking it bud. But generally that's a pretty work out sup. Eat with a good macro count and work out both consistently
Hi, I agree with not over thinking it. My understanding is that most people who are taking TMG (betaine) for athletic performance are taking around 1 to 1.5 grams per day often split up in 2 doses. Some people take more depending on height and weight etc. I've been taking 1 gram per day every day usually in the afternoon. I've taking 2 grams before but most often I just do 1 gram. I would recommend doing a little research especially as it pertains to your specific goals but I hope that helps.
@@JTJaredTaylor Thanks for the advice.
Do you take TMG at the same time as NMN if they work together?
I don't personally. I like to take NMN in the morning and TMG later in the afternoon or in the evening. You CAN take them together and many people do. My understanding is that it's slightly better to take them separately but I don't believe it matters significantly. I hope that helps.
I’m going to try it. I’m on 100mg Losartan as it works best without flaring my gout. I’ll do my research on this with gout as well. However, I just started taking adderral for my adult adhd and that increases my BP.
Hey Doctor. How long you take TMG for my hight blood presure? and - is it okay to take it with Magnesium, B-complex and V-D3?
Hi Diego, first it's important to know that I am not a doctor. It's okay to take in addition to magnesium, B complex and Vitamin D3. As for how much and how long to take it specifically for helping with high blood pressure, I would highly recommend speaking to your personal doctor about it. Sorry I can't give you a specific answer but I hope that helps.
@@JTJaredTaylor of course. Thank you for your feedback 👍
@@diegobalbuena2781 you're very welcome.
Do you have to take anything with TMG for it to work? Also can you take it if you are taking berberine?
Hi Amanda, Thanks for watching and commenting. You do not need to take TMG along with something else for the benefits. Yes, you can take it if you're also taking berberine. Hope that helps.
@@JTJaredTaylor Thank you 😊
@@Amanda_Blair You're very welcome.
Just bought some, Can’t wait to poop myself it is
When do you take tmg ? Split dose or right after nmn, with food?
I've been taking NMN in the morning and TMG later in the day usually on an empty stomach.
Please don't take this it caused fluid to accumulate on my brain, cause my vison to swirl and spin, disrupted my equilibrium and my vision has been blurry for the past month, and yes I have already stopped taking TMG a month ago.
How would this supplement cause fluid to go into your brain?
your not supposed to snort it
How much were you taking?
I take them together in the Am 5 to 600mg tmg and 400mg Nad+ 200mg Quercetin and 100mg betaine ❤
TMG and betaine is the same thing
@@Victorlepa my bad I'm sorry I meant to say I take DMG it's the muscle benefit variant of Glycine 🤌❣️
Looking AT the cost of NMN. Basically $100.00 dollars a month. Could a elderly person get any benefit from taking NMN at a half dose of one pill each day?
No one would benefit. 12 studies say its not better than placebo.
Get NR or just flush Niacin
@@larryc1616 Could you expand: What is NR and what is flush Niacin? I am 71 and not familiar with these. Please
@TheEmosesnepho NR and flush niacin can do the same as NMN for much cheaper and possibly better. Do a youtube search for legit Dr and scientists to go over this with you.
Tmg sol ed my constipation
Tmg solved my constipation problems
That's awesome. I'm glad it's helped you.
@@JTJaredTaylor thank you I'm so happy about it
You don't even know
So, if I buy BETAINE, I won't have to buy TMG...Or are they different? Thank you. Great video.
Yes. You are correct. Betaine and TMG are the same. Sorry it took so long to respond. Been on vacation. Thanks.
Does this mean that regular Vitamin B 12, B6, B1 + Betaine = "methylated" versions, i.e. methylcobalamine and the others (not sure of the name, but the "methylated version that is much more expensice...)?
Hey doc, I have high blood pressure I want to start taking Tmg but I wanted to ask if obligatory to take it with b6 b12 vitamins to see results please help me
He was lots of help, I'll answer your question, 'yes b6 / b12 and foliate, hope this helps
TMG gave me a massive migraine. Be warned.
R u takin it 2 build muscle?
TMG has a fishy smell. Theres norhing wrong with it.
Hands down the most ridiculous and annoying intro to a y video I've seen
I get chest pain when I take donotage’s TMG. Do you know why that may be?
Hi Mike, I haven't heard that one. I believe you but I'm not sure why it would cause that. I could guess but it's probably a good idea to get checked out by a doctor. Just to make sure there isn't any preexisting issues to be concerned about. True chest pain isn't something anyone should ignore. If you get checked out and they find everything is fine then the peace of mind is probably worth it.
I'm with you. Was wondering why I felt so strange. It's definitely the TMG supplement.
@@RichSchlam i switched to beet juice powder I guess beet have tmg in it or betane. Not as good as pure beet juice though
The tmg I got smells like a dead fish
Hmm. I wonder if you got a bad batch. If TMG degrades it can smell like fish.
Yeh I sent it back
God damn homie
