Potential to improve thyroid stimulating hormone levels
Alpha-GPC has a particular application in sports nutrition supplements targeted to individuals concerned with top performance and youthful body compositions. Alpha-GPC is a semi-synthetic derivative of soy lecithin. This completely novel and unique raw material is often referred to as "choline alfoscerate," "GPC" or "Alpha-GPC."
After oral administration, Alpha-GPC is converted to phosphorylcholine, which is a metabolically active from of choline (not to be confused with phosphatidylcholine). Phosphyorylcholine is able to make its way to the synaptic nerve endings in the brain, and in turn increases acetylcholine synthesis and release. Acetylcholine (AC) is a vastly important neurotransmitter present in both brain and muscle tissue. In the brain AC plays a key roll in basically every cognitive function, while in muscle it is vitally involved in muscle contraction as it is the major neuro-transmitter involved in regulating our physiological response to exercise.
