That skipped beat is called extrasystole & is very common & normal in *almost* all cases. If it does concern you, you could get it checked next time you see your doctor.

Various things can cause it to occur oftener - caffeine, overtired, anxiety, overactive thyroid, smoking, alcohol. Some people are more likely to notice it while at rest & even if it happens during activity, it's not as likely to be noticed.

The only thing I've ever read of SAMe doing is causing mild stomach upset in some people. SafetyCheck doesn't mention any heart interactions.
