What is CDP-Choline ?

CDP-Choline is an intermediate in the production of phosphatidylcholine from choline, a common biochemical process in cell membranes. Citicoline occurs naturally in cells of human and animal tissues, especially organs.

What does CDP-choline do?

CDP-choline is a nootropic compound that is neuroprotective and may enhance learning. CDP-choline can promote brain cell respiration, improve brain function, enhance the function of the activation system of the ascending reticular structure, promote awakening, and reduce cerebrovascular resistance.

Product Information of CDP-choline:

Citicoline supplements usually come in two forms, CDP-choline and citicoline sodium.

Because CDP Choline isn't present in food in high enough quantities, we can assist the body’s natural production of CDP Choline by taking it as a dietary supplement in citicoline form. Remember that citicoline is the very same thing as CDP Choline, only it is in supplemental form.

What are the benefits of CDP-choline to the human body?

Boosts cognition

Prevents brain damage

May help with depression and drug addiction

Supports stroke recovery

Improves eyesight

Our Citicoline is the raw material for the production of health products or supplements, and is not recommended for personal use.
