Physiological Function

Citicoline is a nucleic acid that is also known as CDP-choline. It is a form of choline that serves as the raw material for the production of phospholipids in the brain. Brain cells have the ability to convert citicoline into phosphatidyl choline, the primary phospholipids component found in cell membranes.
Citicoline is believed to stabilize the membranes and, when absorbed by the body, breaks down into cytidine and choline. However, once citicoline reforms in the body, it is converted to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, which is involved in memory, thought, sexual function and other vital functions.

Numerous studies have indicated that when taken as a supplement, citicoline can lessen the symptoms of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, as well as alleviate mild cognitive impairment associated with ageing and strokes.
