Hi Ray,
As far as I know DMG refers to Dimethylglycine which is not B15 but a derivative of glycine. Just about all of the studies done on this substance showed very little or no performance enhancing properties.
Pangamic acid described by its inventor as B15, even though it is not a true vitamin, also has very little beneficial properties, and in fact compounds found in various products labelled as pangamic acid are know cancer causing agents.
The only product that I have found that is generally know as B15 in Australia, even though it is not a vitamin, that has any beneficial properties is DADA 250 which contains Dichloroacetic acid 250 mg per ml.
This product appears to dilate the blood vessels, and thereby improve the delivery of oxygen to the muscle tissue, and aids in removal of waste products.
Early trials have suggested that Dichloroacetic acid has some benefit in aiding the cell mitochondrial to kill cancer cells.
Cheers, Tom

Bit confusing because I read this on the Internet, "Calcium Pangamate is the most common form of Pangamic acid - named Vitamin B15 which is a popular but erroneous name. The name has now changed to DMG Dimethylglycine. DMG is a naturally occurring amino acid found in plant and animal cells. It is the active component of Pangamic Acid. "Vitamin B15" and Calcium Pangamate preparations. Natural sources of Pangamic acid include apricot kernels, whole grains such as brown rice, pumpkin, sunflower seeds and brewer's yeast. Pangamic acid is a derivative of the amino acid Glycine."

Vitamin B15 - pangamic acid Until further research is available, be careful of supplements containing pangamic acid, calcium pangamate, DMG or B15.
In the therapeutic use of this nutrient, the dosage is usually increased considerably, but the toxicity level must be kept in mind.
Although pangamic acid is not toxic when taken in as part of normal food, the ingredient, thought to be the active ingredient in pangamic acid, called dimethylglycine (DMG), is thought to be cancer causing.
Toxicity and symptoms of high intake Until further research is available, be careful of supplements containing pangamic acid, calcium pangamate, DMG or B15.
Food sources of vitamin B15 - pangamic acid It is present in brown rice, brewer's yeast, grains, as well as sunflower and pumpkin seeds.Hi Ray, The above is a quote from THIS site. If something is listed as cancer causing, and has no proven benefits I'm inclined to steer clear of it. Cheers, Tom

Hi Ray, If you are going to give greyhounds something that MAY be beneficial DICHLOROACETIC ACID is a far better choice than DMG. Cheers, Tom

Tom,thanks for the info,the reason I asked about DMG was that I have a new dog in and he is on DMG every day on the recommendation of a vet to boost his immune system,I have heard of DMG but am rather skeptical on it benefits,I am inclined to stop using it TBH but the dog is running well to be fair.

How Much Amoxicillin For Respiratory Infection <a href=http://ciali10mg.com>cialis prices</a> Precios Del Kamagra Dosage Of Amoxicillin For Uti I’m sorry mate but providing antibiotic dosages for specific infections is is way beyond the purposes of this website. You need to have your dog examined by your veterinarian to firstly ensure that diagnosis is correct and secondly how best to treat it as antibiotics other than Amoxicillin may be best. However if you are not able to access a veterinarian the highest listed pediatric dosage for pneumonia on this site may provide some guidelines in an emergency situation. www.drugs.com/dosage/amoxicillin.html#Usual_Pediatric_Dose_for_PneumoniaCheers, Tom
