Stack these two supplements to boost mood and strength
■ DMAE Dimethylaminoethanol, an analogue of choline, is
important for proper brain and muscle function. Research shows that
supplementing with DMAE increases choline levels in the brain better
than using choline itself. Having higher choline levels increases
acetylcholine, which is a critical neurotransmitter involved in brain
processes and muscle contraction. Boosting this neurotransmitter
results in better mental function, better focus and drive in the gym,
better muscle endurance and strength, improved mood and a greater
sense of well being.
■ Rhodiola rosea This root extract increases the body’s resistance
modulating neurotransmitters dopamine, norepinephrine and
serotonin. These are important for good mood, especially during the
winter, when the amount of sunlight decreases. Rhodiola also improves
performance in the gym, has been shown to increase the levels of
betaendorphins that reduce pain and improve mood, and even helps to
free up fat from fat cells, particularly during exercise.
■ Take It Like This Take 100-200 milligrams of DMAE once or
twice per day and 100-500 mg of Rhodiola standardized to 3%
rosavins and 1% salidrosides two to three times per day. Take both
on an empty stomach.
