DL-methionine is a combination of the biologically active L-methionine and its optical isomer, D-methionine. D-methionine is not proteogenic, unlike L-methionine, however DL-methionine is less expensive to manufacture than isomerically pure L-methionine.
L-methionine is an essential amino acid and is a main component in structural proteins, and serves as a methyl donor in biochemical reactions. Methionine is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of L-cysteine, L-carnitine, taurine, lecithin, phosphatidylcholine, and other phospholipids, as well as the enzymatic cosubstrate, S-adenosyl methionine (SAM). Because L-methionine is an essential amino acid, it is not synthesized in the human body and must be supplied by dietary intake or supplementation.

L-methionine supplements, such as DL-methionine, are necessary for protein synthesis and provide support for healthy metabolic, central nervous and immune system function.
L-Methionine is classified as an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured by the body. It must be obtained through the diet or by supplementation. L-Methionine supports the production of the cellular antioxidant, glutathione, and thereby assists in natural detoxification processes

Your body uses methionine to make the substance called creatine, another type of amino acid. Methionine also contains sulfur, which your body uses to promote healthy growth and metabolism. Another compound that your body makes from methionine is called s-adenosylmethionine or “SAMe,” which has several important functions in your body. SAMe helps to support the normal function of your immune system, neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin and melatonin, and your body’s cell membranes.

Although methionine itself doesn’t necessarily help to promote weight loss, the substance creatine that’s made in your body from methionine might in fact help you to lose weight. In the supplement form of creatine, monohydrate, the methionine product could potentially help improve athletic performance and your body’s ratio of muscle to fat. Although creatine supplements are widely marketed as sports-performance enhancers and weight-loss pills, no conclusive medical evidence supports the use of creatine for these purposes.
