DMAE, or dimethylaminoethanol, is naturally produced in the human brain and is also found in high levels in anchovies and sardines. It is used for improving memory and mood; supports thinking skills and intelligence; increases physical energy, oxygen efficiency and athletic performance; and improves muscle reflexes. The possible memory-boosting effects of DMAE may help with ordinary memory lapses that occur with normal aging. Memory loss is due in part to the loss of brain cells that produce acetylcholine, a key chemical messenger for enhancing communication between brain cells and essential for learning and memory. DMAE is involved in a series of reactions that form acetylcholine. Many nutritionally oriented health practitioners recommend DMAE along with another memory enhancer, the dietary supplement phosphatidylcholine. In addition to supporting memory skills, research shows some DMAE users also report improved concentration, focus, mental clarity, and improved sleep patterns. Because of its potential for boosting acetylcholine levels in skin tissue cells, DMAE is also used to support healthy skin tone, reducing instances of sagging or loose skin and the presence of liver spots. Preliminary investigation indicates applying a topical preparation of DMAE may be useful in protecting skin.
