Yes, you can eat your methylation nutrients! This delicious burger is rich in methylation amino acids (methionine, cysteine, taurine), as well as B vitamins, betaine, choline and zinc, cofactors for homocysteine metabolism and necessary for forming methionine and the all-important methyl donor, SAMe. It is also made more methylation-friendly than a regular burger by using rosemary, and a marinade that reduces the formation of oxidative compounds that otherwise deplete methyl donor reserves and impair DNA methylation. Serve with arugula or other dark leafy greens for a punch of all-important folate.
