The neurotransmitter (aka brain chemical) acetylcholine plays a big part in your ability to learn new skills, memorize and recall information, and perform high-level mental tasks. One of the ways to boost its production in your brain is to take supplemental Cognizin citicoline, a form of choline we selected for its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.[i] Researchers from the University of Utah Brain Institute found that daily citicholine supplementation helped improve motor speed and attention in young men who usually struggled to concentrate.
A group of American and Japanese neuroscientists noted that taking citicoline daily for a month enabled women to focus more intently for longer. Citicholine improves the function of existing brain cells and also prompt the creations of new ones. A study published in the Journal of Experimental Pharmacology found that citicoline triggers neurogenesis, while also improving brain signaling and promoting the flow of oxygenated blood between different brain regions.
