I'm thinking of trying including betaine in my feed.

I wanted to do a quick poll of whether Betaine (trimethylglycine) is your feed.

If so, do you feel differently because of it.
Are there any sideys that you have noticed.
Did it make much change to your growth rate.
Finally what dose range are you / were you doing (your mass & BF would be handy to interpreting this smile.gif )

Thanks alot!

I have used TMG on and off for about 7-8 years now. Betaine, I used to think was identical to TMG, but I found out later on that this was not the case...

Currently am using TMG @ 2 grams - thrice/day as part of my overall protocol - (especially based on my recent thread where I discuss my extremely high plasma/serum Homocysteine level results)...

No side-effects that I could attribute to the TMG over the years. Have not expected or noticed any LBM or body comp. changes that I could attribute to my extensive TMG use.

When I have used high-dose DMG, and straight Glycine however, I almost always experienced increased cardio-respiratory and muscular endurance within 2-3 hours of ingestion. Also, I unexpectedly noted a consistent libido boost from acute use of all 3 of these supplements...

By my "feed", do you mean my daily diet?

Ergoman,

Based on this:

"This comes from www.naturaldatabase.com:

BETAINE ANHYDROUS

AKA Betaine, Cystadane, Trimethyl Glycine, Trimethylglycine, TMG.
CAUTION: See separate listing for Betaine Hydrochloride."

it does sound like TMG=betaine, just not betaine HCL. Or am I missing something?
