It's from a Dr. Richard Podell, "Fortunately, there is a simple, inexpensive way to stimulate the body to make SAMe on its own: a combination of three old fashioned vitamins (folic acid, vitamin B12 and B6) together with Betaine TMG, another nutritional supplement."
> Betaine TMG or just plain TMG (Trimethyglycine) can be bought at health food stores, it's very cheap.
> Note, I've read that bipolars shouldn't take SAMe, it can bring on a manic phase.
