Effect of betaine supplementation on power performance and fatigue - J
Int Soc Sports Nutr. 2009 Feb 27;6:7 - "Subjects
were tested prior to the onset of supplementation (T1) and 7 (T2) and 14
days (T3) following supplementation ... No differences were seen at T2 or T3
in the repetitions performed to exhaustion or in the number of repetitions
performed at 90% of both peak and mean power between the groups in the bench
press exercise. The number of repetitions performed in the squat exercise
for BET was significantly greater (p < 0.05) than that seen for PL at T2.
The number of repetitions performed at 90% or greater of peak power in the
squat exercise was significantly greater for BET at both T2 and T3 than PL"

The association between betaine and choline intakes and the plasma
concentrations of homocysteine in women - Am J Clin Nutr. 2007
Oct;86(4):1073-1081 - "Total choline + betaine
intake was inversely associated with tHcy, as was choline from 2
water-soluble choline-containing compounds. Remethylation of tHcy may be
more dependent on the betaine pathway when methyl sources are low as a
result of either inadequate folate intake or heavier alcohol consumption"
