Deanol is not only good for mood and concentation, it also reduce your blood pressure. Last not least it minimize the feeling for hunger, so it is good to lose your weight, if you want this. --Fackel 20:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

"It is believed that Dimethylaminoethanol is methylated to choline in the brain. It is known that Dimethylaminoethanol is processed by the liver into choline; however, the choline molecule charged and cannot pass the blood-brain barrier."

I don't want to edit this page since I know nothing about DMAE, but there's a word missing here: the choline molecule IS charged?Conservatif 15:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Fixed. --Ed (Edgar181) 15:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] questions re: traditional and natural use and source

  • what is the natural source of DMAE?
  • what are its traditional uses if any?
  • why is it in skin care products like the Skin Eternal range from Source Naturals?
