SAM-E do you have to take this with B Vitamins?

I am looking into Sam-e since I heard good things about it for overall mood and liver function.

I was wondering if you have to take B vitamins with this? Someone told me you need to tkae it with B vitamin.

Also can you take this and NAC?


not at the same time but say take Sam-e first thing in the morning and NAC at night?

Another question is I take this in the morning and then take my Propecia an hour later with my meal will it ruin the absorbtion of the finasteride?

Well, no matter what you should usually be getting B-Vitamins during they day with your Multi-Vitamin or a separate B-Vitamin supplement. So as long as you are getting adequate levels that way, you should be good to go.

Taking SAMe and NAC shouldn't interfere with one another; as far as I know they should be complimentary.

So far I didnt feel any difference taking this stuff so I just stopped taking them. I still take NAC like 600mg before bed though.

Ive been taking SAM-e for many months now. A couple weeks ago I ran out and went without for 4 or 5 days and started to feel some joint discomfort. Started back up with the SAM-e and it went away. 400mgs daily works well for me. How much were you taking ED?

I took the 400mg in the morning...I cannot say if the stuff works or not because most of it is internal health. I do know that it kept me up more and I wasn't yawning like I used to through the day I also had focus.

As far as joints go I noticed that when I went off them for the first few weeks I could hear my knees popping when I bent down...that went away a couple weeks later.

I just take fish oils. I still take NAC though for liver health

I split it into 200mg @ 9:30 and 200mg @ 2:30.

It is some what expensive, which can be a draw back for some.

I originally took it for the mood support, but then felt an improvement in in my joints so I stuck with it.

To each thier own..

I heard you need to take B 12 and folic acid cause it helps absorb the SamE or something like that.
