Alpha GPC Powder is a water-soluble substance that removes two fatty acids from the main phospholipid PC (phosphatidylcholine) that constitutes the cell membrane. Originally widely existed in organisms, it is one of the body components that exist in human breast milk and body fluids. In recent years, research in the food industry has shown that PC in soybean lecithin can be used as a raw material to remove fatty acids in the structure (deacylation) Get GPCs. In the revision of food and drug classification in 2009, α-GPC (sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) was defined as food.
Alpha GPC, CAS NO.28319-77-9 is colorless transparent liquid or white waxy solid, easy to absorb moisture and soluble in water. Soluble in chloroform, petroleum ether, benzene, ethanol and ether. Insoluble in acetone. For brain health food. Its advantages are to prevent choline deficiency, increase neurotransmitters, and promote the secretion of growth-stimulating hormone. Although eggs and large eggs contain choline, GPC is absorbed more quickly and converted to choline more easily and efficiently when ingested in the form of GPC than through the portal system. And GPC is one of the few five types that can pass through the blood-brain barrier, so it can quickly convert from choline to acetylcholine. Clinical trials have shown that GPC is also a valuable nutrient that improves brain function in healthy young adults. It has been confirmed to improve concentration, recall of words, and working memory, and the characteristic curve of brain waves has also been found to be improved.
GPC can reduce the appearance of Xu wave (Delta, δ wave) that is characteristic of aging or brain function decline. Recent studies have shown that low concentrations of GPC in semen are associated with infertility in men. GPC also plays an important role in the growth and swimming of sperm.
