Cytidine is a naturally occurring nucleoside composed of cytosine and ribose. It plays a fundamental role in cellular metabolism, nucleic acid synthesis, and brain health.
As a biochemical precursor of CDP-Choline (Citicoline), Cytidine supports phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis in neuronal membranes and is widely researched for its benefits in cognitive function, memory enhancement, and neuroprotection.
