Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a nonprotein amino acid found naturally in animal and plant tissue. It is also known as pangamic acid, calcium pangamate, and B15.
Research has shown that DMG can have a dramatic effect on the immune system. This ability is called immune modulation, which means that this substance can help restore or increase the response of the immune system. If the immune system has been compromised by a serious illness, DMG could prove to be helpful since it improves the utilization of oxygen at the cellular level.
DMG has been shown to be very safe for use in supplement form to improve health. (Please, consult a health professional if you are interested in using DMG for a serious illness.)
