Betaine is the amino acid glycine’s trimethyl derivative. Based on its chemical structure, which makes it a dipolar zwitterion, betaine exhibits osmoprotective properties. Beneficial effects on the digestive tract following betaine treatment in pigs and poultry have been reported, including protection against osmotic stress induced by diarrhoea or coccidiosis. Dietary betaine may also aid in the digestion of specific nutrients. Betaine is a choline oxidation byproduct that plays a role in the organism’s transmethylation activities. Betaine acts as a methyl donor, providing labile methyl groups for the creation of metabolically active substances like carnitine and creatine.
