Improves self-confidence: Clinical trials have shown that DMAE has a positive effect on mood and overall well-being. This is most likely the result of its effect on the activity of the key neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. The first one is known as a “happiness hormone” and the second one is mostly released during the activity of the reward system. Besides that, DMAE increases the intensity of cerebral alpha waves that are related to the state of relaxed attention. On the other hand, sulbutiamine is a cofactor of an enzyme that is crucial for the production of GABA – the main inhibitory neurotransmitter capable of lowering stress levels. This modified version of vitamin B1 may also increase the concentration of dopamine receptors, allowing this neurotransmitter to have a greater effect on the target neurons. It has been proven that sulbutiamine helps to overcome excessive behavioral inhibition and social withdrawal. As a result, self-confidence and the willingness to engage in social relations can be increased.

Improves attention: Even though dopamine is mainly involved in the activity of the brain regions that induce feelings of satisfaction and pleasure, it is also crucial for attention. Particularly, it influences the ability to focus attention on the selected piece of reality and to move it smoothly from one topic to another. This is because it determines the proper functioning of working memory, which is the basis of the so-called multitasking. Both DMAE and sulbutiamine increase the activity of this neurotransmitter. Simultaneously, both these compounds stimulate the activity of acetylcholine – a brain chemical that regulates the speed of information processing in the brain and has an important role in terms of cognitive functions. Research indicates that sulbutiamine improves choline uptake and its transformation into acetylcholine in the neurons of the hippocampus – a brain structure responsible for long-term memory. As a precursor of acetylcholine, DMAE also takes part in the production of this neurotransmitter, improving its activity in the central nervous system. Thanks to all these mechanisms, both ingredients of our composition support cognitive functions, including memory and focus.

Supports memory: Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter necessary for fast and efficient acquisition of information. Choline is a raw material required for its production. Scientific evidence suggests that DMAE reduces the use of choline in peripheral tissues and due to that more amounts of this compound may be used to produce acetylcholine in the brain. Sulbutiamine, on the other hand, increases the uptake of choline and its processing in hippocampal cells. The hippocampus is responsible for long-term memory. Stimulation of acetylcholine activity in this area not only makes it easier to remember information, but also facilitates recalling of memories. In that regard, it is worth mentioning the effects of sulbutiamine on dopamine receptors. It has been proven this derivative of vitamin B1 is able to increase their activity. And since dopamine has an important role in terms of memory, particularly working memory, improving its effects within the brain may support the ability to acquire new data and consolidate it as memory.
