PRODUCT OVERVIEW
DESCRIPTION
In industry, betaine is used to reduce the accumulation of homocysteine, an amino acid that can cause cardiovascular problems. It is particularly useful in managing homocystinuria, a genetic condition that leads to high levels of homocysteine; while it doesn't cure the disease, it helps control its effects. Additionally, betaine is used in the cosmetic industry as a powerful humectant in skin and hair care products, known for its ability to absorb and release water. Primarily extracted from beets, it is also utilized in agro-food, medicine, and molecular biology. The growing interest in personal care products and healthy lifestyles has driven its demand in the cosmetics and sports nutrition sectors, where it enhances endurance, strength, and muscle performance.
