Trimethylglycine is the chemical description: a glycine molecule carrying three methyl groups. Betaine is the name it was given when it was first isolated from beetroot. Supplement labels use the two names interchangeably, and EU law uses \"betaine\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-amount\"\u003eHow much is in each tablet?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003e1,000 mg of trimethylglycine per tablet. A full bottle of 100 tablets contains 100 g in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-claim\"\u003eWhat is the authorised EU health claim for betaine?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eBetaine contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism. The claim is listed in Commission Regulation (EU) No 432\/2012 and may be used on a food containing at least 500 mg of betaine per portion, which one tablet exceeds. The register requires two further statements: that the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 1.5 g of betaine, and that a daily intake in excess of 4 g may significantly increase blood cholesterol levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-dose\"\u003eHow many tablets should I take?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eThe intake named in the EU register for the authorised effect is 1.5 g of betaine daily, which is 1 to 2 tablets. The manufacturer's label allows a higher ceiling of up to 6 tablets, but 6 tablets supply 6 g, which sits above the 4 g figure in the register. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you are unsure what is appropriate for you, ask your doctor or pharmacist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-days\"\u003eHow long does one bottle last?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eThat depends on your intake. At 1 tablet daily a bottle lasts 100 days, and at 2 tablets daily it lasts 50 days. The label counts a serving as 3 tablets, which is why it states 33 servings per container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-veg\"\u003eIs it suitable for vegetarians and vegans?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eThe tablet contains no gelatine. It uses a vegetarian coating, and both the stearic acid and the magnesium stearate are stated on the label as vegetable source. NOW Foods labels the product as suitable for vegans and vegetarians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-allergens\"\u003eWhat about allergens?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eThe label states the product is not manufactured with wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nut or sesame ingredients, and that it is produced in a facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens. That is a \"not manufactured with\" statement rather than a certified free-from status, so if you have a diagnosed allergy, take the shared-facility wording into account.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-legal\"\u003eIs TMG sold as a food supplement in Ireland?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eYes. Betaine is sold in food supplements across the EU, and it is one of the substances carrying an authorised health claim in the EU register. Food supplements placed on the Irish market are regulated by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-q\" id=\"tmg-faq-care\"\u003eAre there any precautions?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tmg-faq-a\"\u003eFor adults aged 18 and over. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. A daily intake of betaine in excess of 4 g may significantly increase blood cholesterol levels. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking any medication or under medical supervision, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before use.
