    The basics

    Choline, a renowned nootropic, boasts its prowess in bolstering brain functions. It plays a vital role in various body processes, including DNA synthesis, cell formation, and energy production. Especially during menopause, it displays heightened efficacy for individuals possessing a specific variation of the PEMT gene.
    A reduction in choline levels affects levels of a key neurotransmitter (acetylcholine) that can lead to brain fog. In menopause dropping oestrogen levels impacts choline levels and is responsible for some of the brain-fog symptoms that occur.

    The need to know

    What are the benefits?

    Weight drain, brain gain

    • Breaks down fat and improves brain function
    • Memory booster, needed for energy production
    • Appears to help with negative stress

    The Science

    Upon ingestion, the body metabolises Citicoline into two primary components: choline and uridine. Choline, a pivotal constituent, is essential for neurotransmitter production, especially acetylcholine, which governs memory and learning. It is also crucial for the biosynthesis of phospholipids, enhancing cell membrane integrity.

    This ensures efficient cellular messaging, cholesterol transport, and a fortified nervous system. On the other hand, uridine, being an RNA component, is indispensable for cellular functions. The combination of these metabolites, facilitated by CDP-choline, supercharges the neural pathways, leading to elevated dopamine and noradrenaline levels, which play a fundamental role in mood regulation and cognitive functions.

    How will I know its working?

    You'll observe improvements in retention and recall. You may notice cognitive fluidity and clarity will become more pronounced, noticeable uplift in memory processes and information assimilation. emotional steadiness with diminished mood irregularities, amplified resilience against mental strains, ensuring prolonged cognitive vigour.
