Alpha-GPC

Protein Factory
 Alpha-GPC is considered a very potent choline donor, which is the primary building block for acetylcholine, a major neurotransmitter of the central nervous system. When a declining choline level becomes a limiting factor in the synthesis of acetylcholine, which can occur during exercise and other stressful activities, peak physical and mental performance can be affected. 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."
How Alpha-GPC Works...
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.
Benefits of Alpha-GPC
Maintain and improve mental performance
Increase acetylcholine levels and nerve-muscle communication
Increase levels of phosphatidylcholine, a major cell membrane constituent and optimize cell membrane vitality
Improve muscle contractility and workout intensity
Potential to improve thyroid stimulating hormone levels
Choline
Choline is an essential component of phospholipids, and is the building block for acetylcholine, a major neurotransmitter of the central nervous system. When a declining choline level becomes a limiting factor in the synthesis of aceylcholine, which can occur during exercise and other stressful activities, peak physical and mental performance can be affected.
Acetylcholine
Starting in the spinal cord, motor neurons branch along their axons and come in contact with muscle fibers at their motor units, where AC is called upon to deliver the action potential to each muscle fiber at the motor end plate, thus initiating muscle contraction. Motor units are recruited in order of their size (Size Principle), starting with the smallest in size and weakest in degree of tension they can generate. According to this principle, the recruitment sequence begins with Type I as it can be hypothesized that since all muscle movements-explosive power output, agility, jumping ability- are related to contraction, and contraction is related to available AC stores, then maximizing AC should optimize every type of muscular performance.
The True "Mind to Muscle" Nutrient:
Alpha-GPC has been shown to naturally and significantly increase the level of AC, and thus offers a unique means to enhance and optimize athletic performance. When combining the acknowledged mental performance boosting effects with the muscular performance gaining effects, Alpha-GPC can be viewed as a very novel, safe and natural nutraceutical, with significant performance enhancing capabilities. Since most athletic endeavors demand superior mental clarity as well as muscular strength, agility and finesse, Alpha-GPC is the hottest nutraceutical in the "mind to muscle" category, and is worthy of consideration in novel formulations.
