What is an Alpha GPC Supplement?
Alpha GPC is a naturally occurring choline supplement which is also naturally present in our brains. In our brains, it acts as one of the main precursors for acetylcholine and phospholipid synthesis. It has been shown that when cholinergic neurons are running low on choline for acetylcholine synthesis, they react by breaking down cellular membranes that are made up of choline containing phospholipids. This releases Alpha GPC which is very readily turned into acetylcholine. Due to this, when an Alpha GPC supplement is taken, it makes it into the brain rapidly and significantly increases brain acetylcholine levels. Furthermore, supplementing with Alpha GPC can increase phospholipid synthesis, because besides choline, it is also a source for glycerophosphate; an important factor in phospholipid synthesis and cellular membrane structure. In other words, Alpha GPC may provide choline for starved cholinergic neurons and rebuild the cellular membranes that have broken down. This makes it a well suited neuroprotective agent in cases of acetylcholine depletion. Taken together, an increase in acetylcholine synthesis, coupled with supporting cellular structures, may result in supporting cognitive function. Alpha GPC also promote athletic performance, likely by acutely spiking acetylcholine levels.
