BrainMax Enhanced Citicholine, 60 vegetable capsules
Brain at its best
Citicoline (CDP-choline) is one of the most effective precursors of acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine. For even better accessibility and more natural brain penetration, we used patented Witspower™, which is made from only natural sources. Acetyl-L-carnitine and Ginkgo biloba leaf extract provide increased blood circulation and support for cognitive function, memory and normal brain function¹.
Patented Witspower™ citicoline
Guaranteed concentration 99%
From natural resources
What is CDP-choline?
CDP-choline (full name cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine) is an advanced, bioactive form of choline that has exceptionally good absorption and potency. In the body, CDP-choline is rapidly absorbed and broken down into two important substances:
- Choline → this is used to produce the neurotransmitter acetylcholine
- Cytidine → this is converted in the brain to uridine, which together with choline promotes the synthesis of phosphatidylcholineä
What does this mean in practice? CDP-choline is a two-component formula capable of penetrating the blood-brain barrier into the brain.
How is Witspower™ CDP-choline different from others?
- Organic production from natural resources by biosynthesis (microbial fermentation + enzymatic conversion) instead of the traditional chemical route from petrochemical feedstocks
- This production makes citicoline purer, without chemical impurities that the body would have to metabolize
- High quality and concentration >99%
- Own control over raw materials through own production of CMP (cytidylic acid)
Who is the dietary supplement for?
- For all brains in full operation: CEOs, students, multitasking parents and managers and people who need to rely on their head.
- For those who remember their bank PIN but not where they just put their phone.
- For when you need to be the brains of the team. Literally.
- For all athletes and active individuals who need more choline.
- For the elderly and seniors.
CDP-choline vs. common synthetic choline
CDP choline is one of the best absorbed forms and unlike the commonly available form of choline (synthetic choline bitartrate) passes the blood-brain barrier very well. The best for the most demanding users.
How does citicoline work in the brain?
CDP-choline is easily broken down in the body into choline and cytidine. These two natural components of the body play an important role in the processes taking place directly in the brain cells. Choline is the basis for the synthesis of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter that ensures the transmission of signals between neurons. Cytidine is converted to CMP, further converted to UMP, which is used in the brain to form uridine. Together with choline, it is involved in the formation of phosphatidylcholine, the basic building block of neuronal cell membranes.
Health claims in accordance with current legislation
- Choline contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism
- Choline contributes to normal lipid metabolism
- Choline contributes to the maintenance of normal liver function
- Ginkgo Biloba - Mental Balance
- Ginkgo Biloba - brain - blood circulation
- Ginkgo Biloba - memory
- Ginkgo Biloba - physical and mental health
- Ginkgo Biloba - normal brain function
- Ginkgo Biloba - microcirculation of the blood system
With what other CDP choline products to use
- Caffeine - we recommend taking caffeine from green tea or guarana. If you are still a coffee lover, try a coffee with added value - mushrooms.
- The B vitamins - especially B6, B9 (folic acid) and B12, work with choline against fatigue and exhaustion, and also support the proper function of the nervous system and mental activity.
- Omega 3 fatty acids - DHA is a major component of the cell membranes of the brain. Combine with choline to create a super combo.
- Rhodiola rosea - a popular adaptogen that perfectly complements CDP choline with its effects.
