How Much Choline Should I take?

[Parakonstantius]

Hi people, So, I just purchased a 250mg tablet container of Choline. How many mgs should I take before bed or WBTB? Should it be 500, so then two tablets? Parakonstantius

maybe this should have gone into "lucid aids"?

I read this as "How Much Chlorine Should I take?". I would say not much.

Care to elaborate? Chlorine is a deadly gas that can kill you with one breath.

Chlorine is a deadly gas that can kill you with one breath. I mean about the choline

Yuschak recommends 250-500mg of choline bitartrate or 300-600mg of alpha-GPC. It is unlikely that taking choline only will work, though. Choline is converted into acetylcholine, which is the stuff that enhances lucid dreaming. However, when acetylcholine levels increase the brain will compensate by producing acetylcholine esterase which destroys the acetylcholine, so you end up with normal levels of acetylcholine. This is why many people combine choline with galantamine, which is an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor, that is, it prevents the brain from producing the acetylcholine esterase that destroys the acetylcholine. The choline produces more acetylcholine and the galantamine prevents it from being destroyed, thus the net effect is elevated acetylcholine levels.
