RN Labs' CDP-Choline Powder 25g
Cytidine Diphosphate Choline (CDP-Choline or Citicoline) is a specialised nucleotide form of Choline found naturally in the body, where it provides enhanced cholinergic and neuroprotective activities. Supplemental CDP-Choline is a highly bioavailable form of Choline that is often used when nervous system supportive actions are required.
- High purity
- Highly bioavailable source of Choline
- Supports structural integrity of neuronal membranes
- Supports acetylcholine activity
- Supports phospholipid synthesis and preservation
- Supports cognitive function
Suggested use
Adults: Common Dosage Range: 500 mg – 2000 mg per day. The amount per included scoop is 600mg.
(It is advisable to begin supplementation at the low end of the dose range, increasing if required).
Product Education:
Ingredients: Pure Pharmaceutical-Grade CDP-Choline (99%) • Colloidal Anhydrous Silica (1%)
CDP-Choline is rapidly absorbed, and highly bioavailable. It is metabolised in the gut wall and liver to choline and cytidine, and disperses throughout the body, passing through the blood brain barrier and into the central nervous system.
Continued administration has been shown to increase brain concentrations of the three major brain cell membrane phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine,
phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine). Phospholipids play an essential role in synthesising neurotransmitters and regulating cell membranes proper functioning, which contributes to improved mental energy, increased acuity and promotes healthy brain function.
CDP-Choline can provide a sparing effect on systemic choline reserves, and inhibit
the breakdown of these key membrane phospholipids.
CDP-Choline acts on multiple neurotransmitter levels, and in particular, may increase the activity of Dopamine and Noradrenaline, within its neurotransmission supportive activities.
Higher choline intake has been related to higher cognitive function. This includes reducing the cognitive deficit associated with ageing.
Increases in glutathione synthesis may also be involved within these neuro-supportive activities.
Potential Side Effects
CDP-Choline is generally safe and well tolerated when administered orally. Digestive upset may occur when taking large doses.
