Function of Citicholine

Citicoline, CDP-Choline is a more active form of choline, is a nutrient actually found in the body in addition to being a nutritional supplement. It is a water soluble compound that is an essential intermediary in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, which is a major component of grey matter brain tissue.It also helps to create a number of other types of phospholipids, which are essential components in cell membranes. This supplement was used to help people who had suffered a specific type of stroke to better recover. It can improving blood circulation within the brain. Citicoline is the precursor of lecithin biosynthesis. When brain function declines, the content of lecithin in brain tissue is significantly reduced. Citicoline can promote brain cell respiration, improve brain function, enhance the function of the ascending network structure activation system, promote recovery, and reduce cerebrovascular resistance.
