Methionine is abundant in animal proteins like meat, fish, and poultry. Eggs and dairy products also provide significant amounts. For plant-based sources, methionine can be found in nuts, seeds, and soy products, though in lower amounts compared to animal-based foods.
Methionine supplementation can support liver health and detoxification processes. It’s also beneficial for skin and hair health due to its role in collagen production. Methionine aids in tissue repair and can be helpful for people with dietary restrictions or increased nutritional needs. However, it’s important to use methionine supplements under supervision, as excessive intake can lead to health complications.
