1,3-dmaa Overview
1,3-Dimethylamylamine (DMAA) is a synthetic compound that was once used in dietary supplements, primarily for its purported stimulant effects. It was marketed as a performance-enhancing and weight-loss aid due to its similarities to amphetamines. However, DMAA has been banned or restricted in several countries due to safety concerns, including reports of adverse effects such as increased blood pressure, heart rate, and potential links to serious health issues like strokes and heart attacks. As a result, DMAA is no longer commonly found in legal dietary supplements.
