Dimethylglycine (DMG) - Feed Ingredient
Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a derivative of the amino acid glycine and functions as an intermediary metabolite in cellular processes. It is classified as a methyl donor, meaning it participates in biochemical pathways involving methylation, which are important for energy metabolism, neurotransmitter function, and immune response.
In equine nutrition, DMG is included in some feed supplements, particularly those formulated for performance horses. It is marketed for its potential role in oxygen utilization and metabolic support, though scientific evidence regarding its specific benefits in horses remains limited.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Dimethylglycine (DMG) as an ingredient.
