H 2 S is primarily generated from L-cysteine, obtained through dietary intake, extraction from endogenous proteins, or endogenous synthesis via the transsulfuration of serine by L-methionine, a process occurring within the transsulfuration pathway

Further characterization of the human commensals capable of both reactions (l-carnitineBB and BBTMA), and discovery of the enzyme(s) responsible for TMA production, are of interest particularly since this latter microbial step in the overall pathway appears to be the major one induced during chronic dietary red meat exposure (or directly with l-carnitine supplementation) in an omnivorous diet (Figure 10)
The drugs can reduce body weight, lower blood pressure, and improve blood sugar control, all of which are closely linked to cardiovascular risk
