Cognitive enhancement, neuroprotection, memory support |
Citicoline (CDP-Choline) is a powerful nootropic and neuroprotective agent, providing both choline and cytidine—two essential precursors for phosphatidylcholine synthesis, vital for cell membrane repair and neurotransmitter acetylcholine production.
Key physiological benefits:
Improves memory retention and learning ability
Promotes neuroregeneration after injury or stroke
Enhances focus, mental clarity, and reaction speed
Protects neurons from oxidative stress and aging
Supports dopamine receptor density for better mood regulation
High purity ≥98% verified by HPLC
Low moisture content for enhanced stability
Free from GMO, allergens, and solvents
Produced under GMP & ISO-certified facilities
Flexible bulk supply with consistent quality

Q: What is the use of citicoline powder?
A: Citicoline (also known as CDP-Choline) is a potent nootropic used primarily to:
Enhance Memory & Focus: It boosts acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter for learning and cognition.
Support Brain Energy & Health: It helps maintain the structure of brain cell membranes and supports overall cognitive function.
Promote Neuroprotection: It is studied for its role in supporting brain recovery and protecting against age-related cognitive decline.
Q: How does citicoline make you feel?
A: Users typically report a clear, focused, and alert mental state without the jitters of a stimulant. It often feels like “mental clarity” or a “clean energy” that enhances concentration and verbal fluency, making complex tasks feel more manageable.
Q: How do you get citicoline naturally?
A: The body can produce some citicoline, but it is not abundant in most common foods. The most significant dietary source is organ meats, especially liver and brain. It is also found in smaller amounts in eggs, meat, and fish. For a consistent, high dose, supplementation with citicoline powder is the most reliable method.
It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the correct dosage for your specific health status.
