Vitamin U is not actually a vitamin, but is instead a term used to refer to a substance called S-Methylmethionine. It's found in several different types of food and is used as a naturopathic supplement to treat a variety of health problems. Though several studies have shown its effectiveness, the results are not conclusive. As of 2012, there was no established Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for this substance.
Vitamin U has also been said to increase the body's production of mucin, a substance secreted by the epithelial cells in tissue that forms a protective layer over the lining of the digestive tract and stomach. Acid reflux disease can cause stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus, causing pain and discomfort. When administered as a spray that coats the lining of the throat, it can help protect the esophagus from being damaged.
This substance is naturally found in many food sources, including cabbage, wheat, asparagus, broccoli, and spinach. It is found in other leafy vegetables and in the leaves of radishes and turnips. The vitamin can be consumed as a capsule or powder supplement, and there is also a liquid spray containing a vitamin U formula. Cheney and other researchers have found that the healing qualities of vitamin U disappear if the food source is heated, so only raw food sources should be used during treatment. There is no recommended daily dosage of vitamin U currently established, and people should consult a physician before beginning a daily regime of S-methylmethionine.
