Thoughts anyone?

Compared to Centrophenoxine, DMAE sucks. The only reason I could possibly fathom purchasing it, is if you need an acetylcholine booster but found yourself short on cash.

Also I like how in the side effects area it lists retardation. Nothing says nootropic like symptomatic retardation!

I thought the article seemed oddly biased. Nevertheless by all appearances DMAE is NOT an aCH precursor, even though that's what it is usually described as. Whatever DMAE does seems to have something to do with the fact that it causes the production of phosphatidyl-DMAE in lieu of phosphatidylcholine, on top of raising choline levels. On the other hand, DMAE actually *reduces* choline uptake, which gives me some pause. Frankly I'm beginning to have less of a clue of what DMAE even *does* the more I read. But Dave's article didn't help that uncertainty at all. I had to hit the journal articles myself, and I still haven't found good answers.

I can't go through and pick at the article at the moment, but from reading past articles by Tolson...might not be a bad idea to go through the references.
