Benefits
- INCREASE CHOLINE LEVELS - Phosphatidylcholine is the part of soy lecithin that contains choline and is an excellent and well tolerated choline source.
- ENHANCE MEMORY - Choline is used by the body to produce the neurotransmitter acetylcholine which plays a key role in learning and memory.
- SUPPORTS BRAIN HEALTH - Phosphatidylcholine is used to form the membranes of neurons, and supplementing it ensures enough is available to keep them well protected.
- MADE IN THE USA - Our Phosphatidylcholine is manufactured right here in the US at an FDA cGMP certified facility.
Description
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a phospholipid with a choline molecule attached, and is the most common form of choline found in foods. Choline is defined as an essential nutrient by the FDA, yet between 80% - 90% of Americans currently don’t get enough through their diet.
Choline is used by the body to produce the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which plays a key role in many cognitive processes including memory, fluid intelligence, and mood.
Recommended Dosage
We recommend taking one 1200 mg Phosphatidylcholine Complex capsule per day, which yields 420 mg of choline. (This yields nearly all the choline needed per day, which is 550 mg for men and 450 mg for women.)
A higher dose of 2 capsules per day is perfectly safe to take for those working to correct a serious choline deficiency or who need a higher than average choline intake.
Phosphatidylcholine Complex Side Effects
As it’s the main form of choline found in many foods, Phosphatidylcholine is very well tolerated and side effects are rare. When taken orally, the most common side effects reported are sweating, upset stomach, and diarrhea.
These side effects are most common in those taking doses far higher than the recommended dosage of 1-2 capsules per day.
