Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), a natural substance available as a nutritional supplement, can influence blood levels of homocysteine (Hcy). More specifically, we will determine if chronic oral SAMe administration affects homocysteine metabolism in patients with vascular disease who have mild to moderate hyperhomocysteinemia.
