OVERVIEW

L-a-glycerylphosphorylcholine (GPC) is also known as Choline glycerophosphate, It is a product of phosphatidylcholine, the two fatty acyl groups on the lecithin molecule, which are completely hydrolyzed. It is a water-soluble phospholipid that naturally exists in the human body.
Body and neurotransmitters are also unique cytoprotective agents that support the fluidity and integrity of cell membranes.

 

1) Alpha GPC increases a chemical in the brain called acetylcholine. This brain chemical is important for memory and learning functions.
2) Alpha-GPC is a prescription medication for the treatment of Alzheimer s disease. It is available in two forms; one is taken by mouth, and the other is given as a shot. In the United States alpha-GPC is only available as a dietary supplement, mostly in products promoted to improve memory. Other uses for alpha-GPC include treatment of various kinds of dementia, stroke, and "mini-stroke" (transient ischemic attack, TIA). Alpha-GPC is also used for improving memory, thinking skills, and learning.
3) Alpha GPC rapidly delivers choline to the brain across the blood-brain barrier and is a biosynthetic precursor of the acetylcholine neurotransmitter. Alpha GPC is derived from highly purified soy lecithin.
4) Alpha GPC or GPC has been documented extensively by published studies in both animals and humans to contribute to at least five (5) signs of human health functions.
