Methionine is one of the most critical essential amino acids, involved in detoxification, DNA protection, and neurotransmitter production. But here’s where it gets interesting—too much methionine has been linked to aging and disease, while too little can impair recovery, methylation, and cognitive function.

In this fifth episode of our Essential Amino Acids Series, we explore:
How methionine supports liver detoxification and antioxidant production
The role of methionine in DNA protection, gene regulation, and cognitive function
Why methionine restriction is being studied for lifespan extension
Best food sources of methionine per 100g serving
The surprising connection between methionine and mental health

💥 Plus: Stay until the end for a fascinating study on how methionine influences mood regulation and depression risk.

🎙 In this episode, we analyze peer-reviewed studies, discuss the benefits and risks of methionine, and explain how to optimize your intake for health, longevity, and performance.

🎧 Listen now and discover how methionine can shape your overall well-being.
