I'll give them credit for one thing, they are the first site I've ever seen refer to singlet oxygen, but they did so quite incorrectly. If their product actually produces singlet oxygen, you're in BIG trouble. Singlet oxygen is a highly activated state, based on the orbital configuration of the electrons. It will react with anything, including atoms which are said to not react with other atoms. It's not a charge state, it's an activation state.
Save your money.

P.S. About the SAMe, I think it's a very expensive way to try and solve a problem that can be dealt with by taking TMG and methionine (though methionine isn't necessary for the TMG to work). Moreover, if you're deficient in SAMe, taking some as a supplement will only make more homocysteine, which is probably already elevated due to SAMe depletion.
