Treatment
The following comment by was moved from Trimethylaminuria "Should include how much of each supplements should be taken and also who do you get in contact with for more information." - 2/0 (cont.) 22:57, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Deleted section
The Incidence section I just deleted was lifted almost word-for-word, without attribution, from an ABC News Website. That's plagiarism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by J M Rice (talk • contribs) 19:07, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Wow
I just landed here from a link from outside, read the lead, and didn't understand a word. -Roxy the dog™ (resonate) 03:29, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

1/1000 1/10000?
When you say rare, say how rare. Jidanni (talk) 01:41, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Found this: The frequency of the severe type of the disorder in this population could thus be as high as 1 in 40,000. The true prevalence of the disorder is unknown; however, of patients referred to a malodour clinic in Philadelphia, 35% had trimethylaminuria. The incidence of heterozygous carriers is higher in other ethnic groups studied: 1.7% in Jordanian, 3.8% in Ecuadorian and 11.0% in New Guinean populations,20 suggesting the frequency of the disorder may be as high as 1 in 3000 and 1 in 400 in the latter two groups, respectively. https://www.nature.com/articles/ejhg2011214#:~:text=The%20frequency%20of%20the%20severe,Philadelphia%2C%2035%25%20had%20trimethylaminuria. --Brutalar (talk) 07:10, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

Needs some metabolic pathway descriptions
Article would be better with a clear definition of the life cycle of tma in the body. A section about precursors, bacteria in the gut, direct tmao from seafood, etc. Also maybe move a bit of stuff from symptoms as I didn't have a good spot to put it.

I'll see if I can do something over the next few days. Brutalar (talk) 21:38, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
