It might be possible for a component of beets to reduce the effects of PCP and methamphetamine use, along with schizophrenia.

Pretty amazing.

This would be wonderful. I had a friend who was fully normal and started exhibiting symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia, which got worse and worse and she is extremely far gone now.

A voice in my head likes this idea but the other 3 don’t.

(Suspiciously) What did you really mean by writing this and who told you to write it?

...sorry, I thought I was Jim Acosta talking to Donald Trump for a moment.

TMG is available as a supplement.

It has two methyl groups to donate for methylation. Many persons are undermethylators.

Beta-ine is named after Beets: Beta vulgaris. Beets are exceptionally rich in TMG.

Don’t use “science” and “schizophrenia” together. One has nothing to do with the other.

Interesting, thanks for posting. I remember reading a story years ago about a farmer in Canada who helped his manic depressive daughter with vitamins and minerals, lots of the B vitamins.

betaine might help in autism too

Inadequate intake of choline and betaine may contribute to the metabolic abnormalities observed in many children with autism and warrants attention in nutritional counseling.
