Properties and Effects of Choline Citrate
Choline citrate plays a crucial role as a precursor to acetylcholine – a neurotransmitter essential for central nervous system function. It participates in nerve impulse transmission processes, supports cognitive functions and memory processes, and improves concentration and learning ability.
Due to the presence of an acetyl group, it can also support mitochondrial function and energy metabolism in nerve cells. It is particularly recommended for individuals exposed to mental and physical stress, including seniors, working professionals, pupils, and students.
The product is not classified as toxic, does not exhibit irritating effects, is well-tolerated, and safe for intended use. Additionally, it features a low content of heavy metal contaminants (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury) and a very low moisture level (0.12%), which translates to its stability and shelf life during storage.
Application
Choline citrate finds application in:
- Dietary supplements supporting brain and nervous system function
- Preparations supporting cognitive abilities, memory, and concentration
- Products for seniors and individuals with neurological disorders
- Supporting the body during learning, mental work, and psychophysical exertion
- Preparations supporting liver function and detoxification
Its acidic taste is easily neutralized in ready-made supplement formulations using sweeteners or flavorings.
