I happened to have just read something about acetylcholine and supplements in "Optimum Nutrition for the Mind"
* phosphatidyl choline (1-2g/day) and DMAE (100-500mg/day), a precursor to choline. Apparently there is a drugs called Deaner or Deanol which is a modified version of DMAE. It can help with learning and memory problems. Also consider phosphatidyl serine and pyroglutamate (400-1000mg/day) for memory and learning. Pyroglutamate also increases acetylcholine.
acetylcholine is associated with the formation of memories. phospholipids are essential for acetylcholine formation as well as methylation, the buzzword of mental health these days.
Sources? Eggs. Lecithin (~20% phosphatidyl choline). Fish (sardines), liver, soya beans, peanuts, and other nuts.
That's all I got for now. Best of luck.
