SAM-e Homocysteine Plasma Test

Collection type: Blood

The SAM-e Homocysteine Plasma Test measures the six primary indicators of methionine metabolism. Methionine is an essential amino acid that is critical for the methylation of DNA, proteins and neurotransmitters. Abnormal breakdown of methionine can occur in both genders at any age and can be associated with a variety of health concerns, including cardiovascular disease and cancer. Consider taking with the Urine Amino Acid Test and Metabolic Analysis Profile Test to gain a more complete understanding of the overall function of methylation in your body.

Also known as Methylation Profile Plasma Test
