Cognitex® with Alpha-GPC
For individuals seeking a foundational nutrient to maintain cognitive function and memory, Life Extension’s Cognitex® with Alpha-GPC offers a targeted, science-based approach. This potent formula delivers a clinical dose of Alpha-GPC, a unique form of choline that plays a vital role in brain health and the synthesis of the “learning neurotransmitter,” acetylcholine.

“Acetylcholine is a critical neurotransmitter for memory formation and learning. Alpha-GPC is a highly effective precursor because it readily crosses the blood-brain barrier to provide the brain with the choline it needs. For foundational cognitive support, a high-quality Alpha-GPC supplement is a scientifically sound choice for supporting the brain’s cholinergic system.”
The Power of Alpha-GPC for Brain Health Support
Alpha-Glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline, or Alpha-GPC, is a nutrient that is well-known for its ability to support the brain. It is a highly bioavailable form of choline, an essential nutrient that is a component of every cell membrane in the body. Specifically, Alpha-GPC provides a ready source of choline for the brain, which is essential for maintaining healthy cognitive function as we age.
Supporting Acetylcholine: The “Learning Neurotransmitter”
One of the primary benefits of Alpha-GPC is its role as a precursor to acetylcholine. This vital neurotransmitter is deeply involved in memory, learning, and attention. By providing the brain with the necessary building blocks, this formula helps promote healthy acetylcholine levels, which is a key strategy for supporting cognitive vitality. You can learn more about the role of Alpha-GPC in cognitive function from a study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Alpha-GPC?
Alpha-GPC is a special form of the essential nutrient choline. It is highly bioavailable, meaning it is easily absorbed and can cross the blood-brain barrier to deliver choline directly to the brain where it is needed for cognitive processes.
How is this different from other forms of choline like choline bitartrate?
While other forms of choline can provide this nutrient to the body, Alpha-GPC is particularly efficient at reaching the brain and serving as a direct precursor for the synthesis of acetylcholine, the key neurotransmitter for memory and learning.
Who is this supplement designed for?
This supplement is ideal for any adult looking for foundational support for memory, focus, and overall cognitive health as part of a healthy lifestyle and aging process.
