This is the title of a slide from a methylation video (link below) by Dr. Benjamin Lynch (thanks @Caledonia for posting about this great video). At the 16:50 minute mark, he begins to expound on how important SAMe is for so many critical bodily and cellular functions.
After 2-3 minutes, he begins to expound on how creatine synthesis requires so much SAMe, and how being deficient in creatine crowds out other critical SAMe needs in the body. Watching for 5 minutes from 16:50 to ~22:00 was very helpful for me.
I've always done well with creatine, but have not always taken it regularly. I now anticipate supplementing even more, especially since it's a relatively inexpensive supplement (MUCH cheaper than SAMe).

“Creatine synthesis is estimated to consume between 40 and 70% of available methyl groups provided by SAMe”
