I haven't done any extensive research on it, but it may be worth exploring (if you haven't already done so).

Also, I read that it negatively impacts the thyroid or thyroxin (and I'm hypothyroid). But then I noticed that the site I read this on doesn't seem to have those articles anymore. So, maybe it doesn't have this negative effect after all. I'll definitely have to check this out further.

If I find anything like that about ALC I'll post the link here for you.I wonder if I'll get any responses to the DMAE question...
