1. Other names of Alpha GPC:Alpha -GPC, Alpha Glycerol Phosphoryl Choline, Alpha-Glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline, Alpha-Glyceryl Phosphatidylcholine, Alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine, Choline alphoscerate, Glycerophosphorylcholine, GPC, GroPCho, L-A-Glyceryl Phosphorylcholine, L-alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine.
2. Usage:
Alpha GPC is a chemical released when a fatty acid found in soy and other plants breaks down. It is used as medicine.
In Europe alpha-GPC is a prescription medication for the treatment of Alzheimer s disease. It is available in two forms; one is taken by mouth, and the other is given as a shot. In the United States alpha-GPC is only available as a dietary supplement, mostly in products promoted to improve memory.Other uses for alpha-GPC include treatment of various kinds of dementia, stroke, and "mini stroke" (transient ischemic attack, TIA). Alpha-GPC is also used for improving memory, thinking skills, and learning.
Benefits & Applications
Alpha GPC stands for Alpha-glycerophosphocholine- a mouthful of a name that should tell you that it has something to do with choline. In fact, it is a choline compound found naturally in trace amounts in the body. Now choline is an essential nutrient that is needed by the body for normal functioning and overall good health. Among other things, choline is essential for mental and physical performance.
Alpha GPC works fast and helps deliver choline to the brain and actually increases the production of acetylcholine. By providing your brain with more choline it can convert that to acetylcholine and contribute to a host of downstream effects. Primarily, acetylcholine is utilized by the hippocampus to create memories.
Acetylcholine works in a variety of ways to support your working memory. It can also enhance your linguistic skills, your capacity to reason and use logic, as well as your creativity. The same is also crucial for memory, coordination, and mobility.
Here are the main Alpha GPC benefits:
Research suggests that a diet fortified with choline can boost your memory and may even slow down memory loss that comes with age [3]. People who have insufficient choline may face a hard time concentrating or may even exhibit ADHD symptoms.
Alpha GPC may also help fight fatigue while it increases stamina. Stamina and mood are believed to be correlated to excess levels of acetylcholine in the brain and body.
Another reason for improved stamina could be the increase in the natural human that alpha GPC stimulates. An elevated level of is associated with higher levels of energy, longevity and anti-aging effects.
In addition, people who naturally have a higher level are likely to recover quicker and exhibit more energy along with feelings of wellbeing.
Some research indicates that Alpha GPC works like a dopaminergic, meaning that it has a positive effect on your mood, incentive, and the sensation of feeling pleasure. One such animal study looked into the effects that Alpha GPC had and concluded that it had a positive response to dopamine production. [6] Just to be clear, dopamine is a neurotransmitter that helps control the brain's reward and pleasure centers.
Closely tied to boosting stamina is the idea of improved athletic performance. With an increase, it becomes possible for the body to gain muscle in a short time. This gives athletes and gym goers in their bloodstream an ideal option.
