OEM ODM Healthcare Supplements Choline Glycerophosphate Alpha-GPC Alpha GPC Capsule
What is Alpha GPC?
Alpha-GPC is a member of the phospholipid family, as one of the phosphatidylcholine derivatives, playing an important role in the health of cell membranes.
The mainly physiological function of Alpha-GPC is to cross the blood-brain barrier and provide the necessary choline for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine.
Alpha-GPC is known for its effects on brain health, attention, concentration, and memory generation.
Introducing our revolutionary health product Glyceryl Phosphatidylcholine. It's important to note that this product is not intended to replace medication for a disease, but it can certainly help improve various symptoms. Its key ingredient, lecithin, is incredibly powerful.
Lecithin, also known as lecithin, is a yellow-brown oily substance that exists in animal and plant tissues and egg yolk. It contains phosphoric acid, choline, fatty acids, glycerol, glycolipids, triglycerides and phospholipids. These components play important roles in our bodies, such as forming cell membranes, supporting alveolar surfactant, lipoproteins and bile. Lecithin is even responsible for the production of lipid messengers such as lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidic acid, diglycerides, lysophosphatidic acid, and arachidonic acid.
This incredible health supplement contains L-alpha Glycerophosphorylcholine, also known as Alpha-GPC or Alphosphocholine. It is a natural choline compound that is abundant in the brain. One of its most notable features is its ability to act as a precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in cognitive function.
What sets our product apart is its unique ability to rapidly deliver choline across the blood-brain barrier to the brain. This is essential for optimal brain health and function. Alpha-GPC is a biosynthetic precursor of acetylcholine, which means it helps produce this important neurotransmitter. In doing so, it supports memory, concentration, and overall cognitive performance.
While it is important to understand that our product is not a substitute for the medicines that treat the disease, it is a valuable adjunct therapy. Glycerophosphatidylcholine contains potent lecithin that enhances the excretion of cholesterol in the bile. This facilitates the lipoprotein metabolism process and achieves a remarkable dissolving effect. Therefore, it can improve symptoms caused by atherosclerosis, a disease characterized by hardening and narrowing of arteries.
In addition, our products can also help relieve symptoms caused by fatty liver. Fatty liver is a disease in which fat accumulates in liver cells, leading to liver dysfunction and complications. By using Glycerophosphatidylcholine, an individual's symptoms are expected to improve due to the benefits provided by lecithin.
Notably, we offer α-GPC powder and α-GPC capsules for your convenience. Choose the format that best suits your preferences and needs, but rest assured that both options offer the same incredible benefits.
In conclusion, Glyceryl Phosphatidylcholine is a breakthrough health product that combines the power of lecithin with the incredible properties of alpha-GPC. While it's not a replacement for medication, it can help improve various symptoms associated with atherosclerosis and fatty liver. With its remarkable ability to deliver choline to the brain, it supports cognitive function, memory and concentration. Experience the benefits this remarkable product has to offer and take a step towards improving your overall health.
why do we choose Alpha-GPC, not Beta-GPC?
Beta-glycerylphosphocholine(Beta-GPC) is also a member of phosphocholines.
Beta-GPC contributes very little to total GPC(~1%), while Alpha-GPC is hydrolyzed to phosphorylcholine and contributes to the supply of choline needed by the liver and choline needed for myelin synthesis.
How Does Alpha GPC work?
When the human body absorbs Alpha-GPC, it is decomposed into choline and glycerophosphate under the action of enzymes in the body. Among them, choline participates in the biosynthesis of acetylcholine, which is a kind of neurotransmitter; glycerophosphate is lecithin Derivatives, involved in the synthesis of lecithin.
The main pharmacological effects of Alpha-GPC include protecting the metabolism of choline; ensuring the synthesis of acetylcholine and lecithin in the nerve membrane, improving blood circulation; improving cognitive and behavioral responses in patients with traumatic brain capillaries.
Alpha-GPC VS CDP Choline(Citicoline) VS Phosphatidylserine
From the source, Alpha-GPC can be obtained naturally from soybean lecithin, or it can be made by synthetic route; CDP Choline is mainly synthetic route; phosphatidylserine (PS) can be obtained from soybean lecithin, sunflower lecithin, etc.
In terms of efficacy, CDP Choline is mainly used as a brain metabolism and neuroactivator, which can promote brain cell respiration, improve brain function, enhance the function of the activation system of the ascending reticular structure, promote recovery, and reduce cerebrovascular resistance; Phosphatidylserine also It is called compound nervonic acid, which is an active substance of cell membrane. Its effect is to improve the function of nerve cells, regulate the conduction of nerve impulses, and enhance the memory function of the brain. Because of its strong lipophilicity, it can quickly enter the brain through the blood-brain barrier after absorption, soothe vascular smooth muscle cells and increase blood supply to the brain.
The three materials mentioned above are known for their cognitive benefits such as supporting memory, mental performance, and focus.

What are the Benefits of taking Alpha GPC?
Alpha-GPC is a widely used nootropic supplement, main benefits include:
Protect brain health
We all know that Alpha GPC is a precursor to acetylcholine, which enhances cholinergic transmission in the brain. Specifically through the mechanism of action Alpha GPC directly increases the synthesis and secretion of acetylcholine, better than any other choline-related compound, affecting choline concentrations system-wide and in the brain.
Alpha GPC can counteract brain aging by increasing cholinergic receptor sites, restoring the bioavailability of acetylcholine, increasing nerve growth factor receptors in the brain, and slowing down undesirable structural changes in the brain.
Alpha GPC also works to improve mental performance and improve memory and learning by counteracting the age-related loss of nerve cells and fibers in the brain.
High doses (1200 mg) of Alpha-GPC are effective in mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease and work well with standard therapy (acetylcholinesterase inhibitors).
Boost muscle and athletic performance
Some preliminary evidence shows that Alpha GPC has the ability to support healthy brain function and the release of somatotrophin (hGH). it also is able to enhance acute growth hormone production and power output during exercise. Increased growth hormone production and power output can increase muscle mass and improve overall metabolic activity, thereby enhancing muscle and athletic performance.
Studies also report that slightly higher single doses of 600mg-800mg may be more beneficial when Alpha GPC is taken before exercise (such as a pre-workout supplement).
In summary, Alpha-GPC has two main functions:
- Central effect: improve dementia; improve learning ability; inhibit the secretion of stress hormones
- Peripheral effect: promote growth hormone secretion; improve liver function; immunity and repair ability during injury.
