Support for proper homocysteine metabolism
Anti-inflammatory and antioxidants
Support for proper

Improvement of psychophysical condition
Enhancement of methylation processes
Optimal detoxification
Apollo Hegemony TMG powder is a dietary supplement that contains pure trimethylglycine powder. The purpose of the preparation is to help in the correct methylation processes and to support cardiovascular health, to ensure the correct metabolism of homocysteine and to support the liver in detoxification processes.
Trimethylglycine (TMG), also known as betaine, is a naturally occurring compound first isolated from beetroot (Beta vulgaris). In terms of chemical structure, it is glycine with three additional methyl groups.
Help with methylation disorders
The chemical structure of TMG makes it an excellent donor of methyl groups needed in methylation processes. Methylation is a type of biochemical reaction that plays an important role, e.g. in epigenetic modifications, detoxification processes, neurotransmitter synthesis and maintaining homocysteine homeostasis.
TMG is one of the key elements in supplementing methylation disorders, which can manifest e.g. increased susceptibility to stress, chronic fatigue, nervous system disorders and thyroid problems.
Decreased homocysteine levels
Homocysteine is a non-protein amino acid that is formed naturally as a result of the demethylation of methionine. An increased concentration of homocysteine has a negative effect on the body, especially on the cardiovascular system. Hyperhomocysteinemia can also cause neurological disorders and an increased risk of birth defects.
As a methyl donor, TMG supports the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine, thus counteracting excessively high homocysteine levels. Another product of this reaction is S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), which participates in the synthesis of neurotransmitters - dopamine and serotonin - ensuring good mental well-being.
Supporting physical performance
Betaine has anabolic and anti-catabolic potential. It is often used by athletes and physically active people because it affects creatine synthesis. There are also reports of a role for TMG in increasing insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels.
In conclusion, Apollo Hegemony TMG powder is a preparation recommended for athletes and physically active people for methylation disorders and to support cardiovascular health and detoxification processes.

IFit recommendations
To improve methylation processes and support optimal homocysteine metabolism, it is recommended to ensure a proper supply of B vitamins, especially vitamins B6, B12 and folates.
Elevated homocysteine concentration is usually determined genetically due to a mutation in the MTHFR gene, but it can also be increased by environmental factors such as e.g. alcohol abuse, smoking, improper diet, some medications, and liver disease.
