Product Applications

Betaine is an important human nutrient, distributed widely in animals, plants, and microorganisms. It is rapidly absorbed and utilized as an osmolyte and source of methyl groups and thereby helps to maintain liver, heart, and kidney health. The growing body of evidence shows that betaine is an important nutrient for the prevention of chronic disease.

Betaine nitrate is a citrate salt and is a new product of chemical technology. It is used specifically to provide Betaine to improve liver function and as a Hepatoprotectant. Some studies show that Betaine nitrate may be effective for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. It is also used as a food redispersing agent, preservatives and antioxidants. Betaine nitrate, can be fully assimilated by the body and has no or little side effects, although further research is needed to prove its safety.
