DMG supplement to improve oxygen utilisation and reduce lactic acid formation in horses.
Composition
Contains: Dimethyl glycine 100 mg/mL
Features and Benefits
Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a naturally occurring nutrient which is described
as an ergogenic food factor, or antistress nutrient.
DMG enhances the metabolism to improve endurance in performance
horses by reducing lactic acid accumulation in muscles.
DMG increases glycogen, creatine phosphate, phospholipid and total
lipid content in cardiac and skeletal muscle.
DMG increases the body?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s tolerance to hypoxia, increases oxygen
uptake by tissues, improves circulation, and reduces lactic acid
production during exercise.
Stamina and endurance are improved by an increase in oxygen utilisation
and reduction in lactate accumulation in muscles, resulting in increased
endurance via a glycogen sparing effect.
Indications
DMG acts as a key element in the biological pathway which maximises
the amount of energy produced per molecule of oxygen consumed.
DMG also acts as an anti-oxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by free
radicals (the waste products of energy production), and helps to enhance the
immune response (so acts as an antistress nutrient). DMG transports oxygen
for ATP production in muscle tissue. Supplementing with DMG has a number of
benefits for athletic animals: enhanced energy supply, increased oxygen utilisation,
and decreased accumulation of lactic acid in muscle tissue. Studies in both horses and
greyhounds have demonstrated the ability of DMG to improve stamina and endurance, as well as improve recovery
after hard physical exercise.
DMG is also indicated for cardio-pulmonary insufficiency and poor circulation.
DMG supplementation is commonly used in human athletes to improve overall performance and endurance, to enhance
oxygen utilisation, and to improve recovery.
