DMAE-H3 is a concentrated solution of the PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) salt of DMAE stabilized with benzoic acid. DMAE(dimethylaminoethanol) by itself is alkaline and caustic. Therefore only salts and esters of DMAE are used. DMAE naturally occurs as liquid in its concentrated form.

Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) is similar to choline, a chemical involved in the processes of learning and memory. It has been known to be beneficial for people with autism, memory deficiency and dementia. It is best not to take it on a daily basis but to reserve it for days when you need to increase alertness and focus. DMAE can have a slight mood and vision enhancing effect in some people.
