DMAE-I like it in my creams and a supplement
What is DMAE (Dimethylaminoethenol)?
Dimethylaminoethenol
(DMAE) is a metabolite, a product produced by the body's metabolic
process of procaine. It is a central nervous system stimulant that has a
mild impact. It's effect is similar to an amphetamine, but it is not
such a drug. The term DMAE is actually an abbreviation for
dimethylaminoethanol, a naturally occurring chemical produced by the
human brain. It is a choline molecule that has one methyl group missing
from the nitrogen, and it may be for this reason that it can cross the
blood-brain barrier more easily than choline. While choline is known to
be the precursor of acetylcholine, a recognized neurotransmitter, DMAE
may prove to offer a more direct approach to this function by moving
into the brain, being acted on by an enzyme (methylation), and thereby
undergoing conversion into choline directly where it is needed.
DMAE Benefits
* Increase
life span. Some animal studies show a lengthier than usual life span,
however, results are inconclusive at this time since not all animals and
birds show the same results.
* Reduce and/or prevent DNA damage.
* Enhance brain activity. Because of more readily
moving through the brain-blood barrier before conversion into choline,
it is believed that DMAE is more effective in aiding brain function such
as making neurotransmitters.
* Enhance ability to fight environmental stressors.
As an antioxidant, DMAE can deactivate free-radicals (oxidative stress)
created by such environmental polluters as automobile exhaust, cigarette
smoke, radiation, stress, physical exercise, and other chemicals.
* Improve the body's ability to deal with dietary
stressors. Rancid fats, hydrogenated fats, and fats that have been
heated to high temperatures as in cooking are known to create dietary
stress due to the oxidative stress they place on the human system. DMAE
eliminates the free-radicals resulting from these fats.
* Prevent and/or treat cardiovascular problems.
Scientific studies have documented DMAE's ability to deal with
degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular problems.
* Increase ability of the immune system.
* Alleviate behavioral problems. Hyperactivity
associated with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), improved attention
span, decreased aggression, improved learning ability, and sometimes
increased intelligence.
* Increase attention span. After 6 weeks of DMAE
supplementation, students showed improved concentration at lectures and
during examinations.
* Improve learning, memory, creativity, and verbal fluency.
* Decrease incidences and severity of hangovers in
those individuals who consume excessive amounts of alcohol. After 6
weeks of DMAE ingestion, subjects reported that depression and headaches
of hangovers were eliminated.
* Increase energy. Subjective reports improved energy,
sometimes assumed to be a result of the reduction in depression and/or
the stimulation of the central nervous system.
* Reduce apathy. Some studies have shown increased
motivation as well as energy that lessened apathetic attitudes and
anxiety of subjects.
* Improve the behavior and mental function of children with Down's Syndrome.
* Offer favorable effects on chronic dyskinesias occurring as a result of lengthy use of major tranquilizers.
* Reduce sleep needed. A reduction of one hour was
noted after 6 weeks of DMAE use and sleep was reported to be more sound
and refreshing.
* Increase lucid dreaming.
* Reduce and/or remove lipofuscin - age spots.
