Like so many mothers of ASD kids, I was desperate and tried DMG back about 10 years ago. I caused my son to get EXTREMELY hyperactive. I stopped it within days. It took about a month for him to get back to himself. We also tried Secretin infusion. Same result. 'Biomedical' treatment, for us, was VERY effective. In making things WORSE.
Dimethylglycine is known as one of the most effective anti-aging nutrient in the world. DMG helps you to feel young, vital, healthy and strong well into old age. It boosts strength, endurance and stamina by dramatically improving the nutritional environment of the cells. After TMG converts toxic homocysteine into methionine and SAMe, it becomes DMG (dimethylglycine), the first nutrient performance enhancer sold in the United States in health food stores. TMG is extracted from sugar beets. It has a distinctive taste that is mildly sweet with a mild aftertaste. TMG is also known as glycine betaine.
TMG consists of three methyl groups (CH3) joined to one molecule of the amino acid glycine. This is a very important type of structure because, when eaten in food or taken orally as a supplement, TMG easily lets go of two or even three of its methyl groups. Letting go of one methyl group leaves a substance called dimethylglycine or DMG. I found a post by Rich about TMG and Betaine HCL which functions the same as TMG. He also mentions DMG which I don't know too much about, but have considered starting. I suppose there are other threads about DMG and I don't want to take it off topic, but if someone could make a quick comment about DMG I would like to know more. DMG: An All-Natural Wellness Builder by Roger V. Kendall, Ph.D. Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a relatively small molecule with an amazing power to change and improve health, well-being, and vitality in a person's life.
For us, DMG didn't show any reactions one way or another. The diet and other treatrments have allowed her amazing improvement, however. You can find lots of parents who have seen the same changes here:
Has anyone had any success using this? Or a dairy or gluten free diet?
Thanks
DMG made my son very irritable same with B6. I have been using Pro EFA for about 3 months and my son is having the best summer he has has in about 3 years. He is actually going to complete ESY this year and is having a ball. Last year I had to pull him out because he could not take the change.Hi Vivsha,
I also posted our experience with DMG on the thread in the section about supplements and other treatments. My son has been taking one 125 mg tablet for the past 3 days and he has been doing quite a bit more talking. Yay! We've had no hyperactivity so far.
They say if you see hyperactivity with DMG try TMG instead.Thanks so much everyone for your replies.What is thie supposed to do for a child? I notice most of you say speech is that what it is intended to do.Here is an article about it that may be helpful

I first read up on DMG two years ago. Our son was 2 1/2 at the time and had a very limited vocabulary, very little eye contact, and NEVER showed any emotions. After a 45 minute telephone consult with the Autism Research Institute, I decided to try it even though everyone in my family, including my husband said I had lost my mind.
With in 24 hours his comprehension had sky rocketed, 48 hours his vocabulary improved and he was speaking 2 word sentences, within a week he had more eye contact and showed true emotions for the first time. His Stims even decressed. Three years later he still takes it everyday, 250 mg. I have noticed no hyper activity with it. We did take him off of it for two weeks to see how well he would do. His teacher called and beg me to put him back on it because he wasn't staying focused in class.
It doesn't work for every child but it's working for mine
And yes, it is true that DMG doesn't work for a lot of kids. I have a friend who tried pretty much the same things we did and saw no improvement. But when it *does* work, it can be pretty astounding, and given the low risk of these types of treatments it's generally worth a try.
If the DMG is causing hyperactiveness, then you need to add folic acid with it, Kirkman's sells a DMG with folic acid and MB12 added. The folic acid helps with the hyperness.
If B6 makes them hyper, it should be taken with magnesium.
Where do I get the dmg or tmg at I want to try it with Daniel. I here food science sells great stuff. Our health food store sells there stuff as well. what should i expect to pay for it?It's not cheap and you go through alot of it quickly. You can google Divinci labs of Vermont to order. It's about 36.00 a bottle. Our son is on 3 teaspoons a day, but you have to build up to that. We started at 1/2 a teaspoon and worked up 1/2 teaspoon every 4 days until we reached 3. Our DAN DR. perscribed this. Check with your Dr. , dose depends on weight. Good LuckI think the first box I ordered was .49 for 60 of the 125 mg tablets. I got mine at www.ihealthtree.com. DMG is one of the easiest things to give our dd..she never protested it because she didnt taste it. I would be lying if I stated really any one thing we did made a major improvement with her because we were doing everything..Gfcf diet/DMG/fish oil/nystatin/supernuthera/enzymes..glutithione cream and 30 hours of VB/ABA a week~2 hours of speech/wk and other things all at the same exact time. I would put my money on VB/ABA therapy though if I could only choose just one therapy. I never had side effects of anything but her eye contact, language and just being more aware of us was noted right away..within 2 weeks and we were told it might take months to see this..so we were motivated to give doing it for a solid year before weaning her off it.. NO regrets:) Mt son has been on DMG for 6 weeks. It does help increase his speech. Most of his daily talking is repeating books and tv shows but I found the DMG helpful in more spontaneous speech. It's not a miracle but helpful.Thanks marillyna!Hi,
When I was thinking about trying DMG someone on a forum said the only brand that worked for them was Food Science of Vermont. So that's what we bought. It's a little chewable tablet that tastes kind of sweet. My son wouldn't chew it, so I crush it and put it in orange juice. I order it online from Ihealthtree.com.
What brand of DMG have you tried. I wanted to try DD on it while she was on winter break. I gave it to her 1 day and she took it without a problem but since then she has refused. I thought trying a different brand. When I went to the health food store to purchase they were out of a lot of things (including her probiotics!) so ...

SAMe Costs Too Much!
SAMe has been shown in clinical studies to be the fastest acting safest and possibly, most effective antidepressant ever found. One study found that 66% of patients treated with SAMe showed significant clinical improvement in depressive symptoms compared only 22% of patients given the antidepressant drug imipramine. Unlike conventional antidepressant drugs that produce adverse side effects, SAMe produces multiple health benefits and may slow the aging process.
The March 1997 issue of Life Extension Magazine provides strong scientific evidence that SAMe is effective in the treatment of depression, schizophrenia, demyelination diseases, liver disease, dementia, arthritis, and other conditions. Recently, the Journal of Neurochemistry reported the brain levels of SAMe in Alzheimer's patients are severely decreased.
SAMe Costs Too Much!
SAMe is a natural metabolite of the amino acid methionine. It is sold in Europe as a drug for the treatment of depression and liver disease. The European version of SAMe is cost prohibitive for most people. The cost of an effective dose (1200-1600 mg) for treating most forms of depression and acute liver disease is $9 to $12 a day.
Unlike many drugs that have inflated prices, SAMe is genuinely very expensive to synthesize. It takes many kilos of methionine to produce 1 kilo of SAMe. Stability in manufacturing and packaging are further problems that add to the cost of SAMe.
The Foundation is working with American laboratories to produce SAMe at a more affordable price. One of these laboratories has already developed a more cost effective synthesizing technique, but it will take time to bring SAMe into full production and, even then, SAMe may still cost more than most people can afford.
A Cost Effective Way of Boosting SAMe Levels
Here's how SAMe can be boosted naturally within the body: When homocysteine is converted into methionine within the body, a by-product of this conversion is S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe). Homocysteine is amino acid, which has been linked to the development of atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease and stroke. A study in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) showed that those with high homocysteine levels had a 3.4 times greater risk of a heart attack than those with low homocysteine levels.
Conventional medical journals such as JAMA have recommended vitamin supplements such as folic acid as safe methods of lowering homocysteine. A more effective nutrient to lower homocysteine is trimethylglycine (TMG). TMG converts homocysteine into methionine and, in the process, produces S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe). Unlike the synthetic SAMe drug available from Europe, TMG is inexpensive and is readily available as a dietary supplement. In order to further describe how TMG works, we will introduce a new concept called 'methylation enhancement' and describe how this may relate to aging.

A Cell Rejuvenating Event
Methylation can be defined as the process of putting a methyl group onto a DNA molecule. Published research shows three specific benefits of enhancing methylation:
- Methylation lowers dangerous homocysteine levels, thus lowering the risk of heart disease and stroke. Methylation is the primary process by which homocysteine is transformed into nontoxic compounds such as SAMe.
- Methylation produces SAMe, which may have potent anti-aging effects, and has been shown to alleviate depression, remylenate nerve cells, improve Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease patients, and protect against alcohol-induced liver injury.
- Methylation protects DNA. Methyl groups appear to prevent genes that cause diseases from being expressed. Protecting DNA may reduce the risk of genetically induced cancers in addition to slowing cellular aging.
Factors that decrease methylation include smoking, alcohol consumption, high fat diets, birth control pills and aging. As animals age, their methylation activity declines progressively. This decline in methylation is directly related to the physical decline associated with aging. Published research shows that 'methylation' is related to a variety of disease states including cardiovascular disease, cancer, liver disease, and neurological disorders.
TMG and SAMe both facilitate youthful methylation metabolism. Enhancing methylation not only protects against many diseases, but may make people feel younger. Optimal methylation occurs in young women of child bearing age, but even some of these women suffer from a methylation deficiency that can produce a wide range of disease states. These women can be helped by following a methylation enhancing program.
Methylation - Enhancing Protocol
Trimethylglycine (TMG) is the most effective methylation enhancing agent known. After TMG converts toxic homocysteine into methionine and SAMe, it becomes DMG (dimethylglycine), the first nutrient performance enhancer sold in the United States in health food stores.
TMG is extracted from sugar beets. It has a distinctive taste that is mildly sweet with a mild aftertaste. TMG is also known as glycine betaine. Some vitamin companies confuse 'betaine hydrochloride' with glycine betaine (TMG). Betaine HCL does not provide the methylation enhancement of TMG and could elevate stomach acidity in some people. There are no reports of side effects with TMG other than brief muscle tension headaches if it is taken in large quantities without food.
Tmg Vs Dmg Stamina And Strength
Fortunately, the cost of 99% pure trimethylglycine is low, thus enabling Foundation members to take high enough doses of TMG to significantly enhance methylation and SAMe levels.
Tmg Vs Dmg Stamina Software
Foundation members have been obtaining potent doses of methylation enhancing nutrients in LIFE EXTENSION MIX,LIFE EXTENSION BOOSTER and CHLOROPHYLLIN. These formulas include the maximum amount of folic acid permitted by the FDA (for pregnant women). Other methylation enhancing nutrients are vitamin B12 and choline. (Vitamin B6 lowers homocysteine levels via a different mechanism than methylation enhancement.)
Studies show that while folic acid can lower homocysteine levels in most people, TMG can cause homocysteine to disappear from plasma after one to three months of administration. TMG stimulates methylation more effectively than folic acid and other vitamins.
Tmg Vs Dmg Stamina And Speed
A minimum effective dose of TMG for homocysteine reduction is 500- 1,000 mg a day. Optimal doses for methylation enhancement and SAMe elevation are about 3,000 mg a day. In some studies, 6,000 mg a day of TMG were used.Important note:
