Citicoline is cytidine diphosphate choline, or CDP-choline, a nutrient that has been shown to support memory in patients with age-associated memory impairment, and brain cell recovery from injuries such as stroke or concussion. Citicoline also increases the production of key neurotransmitters, including acetylcholine, norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin, all of which are essential for mood balance and memory. Additionally, it supports nerves in the eye, and studies administering Citicoline to patients with lazy-eye and other vision disorders have noted beneficial results.

The main component of Citicoline is its cytidine group, which is what Citicoline delivers to the brain. Rather than just supplying a single phospholipid, Citicoline boosts the brain’s  production of its own array of  phospholipids, including phosphatidylserine (PS), phospatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). Phospholipids are fundamental in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and the proper functioning of neural cell membranes – both highly significant factors for healthy cognitive function.

AOR Advantage

AOR’s Citicoline provides a source of choline along with added choline for enhanced acetylcholine production, while the cytidine end is converted into cytidine diphosphate which enhances the natural production of all the body’s phospholipids in a balanced manner.  Citicoline is ideal for those looking to support cognitive performance, memory, and mood, or to support the health and function of brain cells during aging or after a brain injury.
