Cognizin is the brand name of cdp-choline
Citicoline, or
cdp-choline, has a number of different mechanisms of action, and it has yet to
be determined which may be responsible for the changes in brain responses. The
vitamin-like nutrient has been known to function as a precursor of phospholipid
and acetylcholine synthesis; citicoline also enhances of the release of
neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and increased synthesis of
phospholipids including cardiolipin and sphingomyelin. Citicoline has also been
recognized for neuroprotective effects with stroke or other brain injuries,
protection from cognitive decline. Though this research is still preliminary,
researchers will continue to investigate whether these effects are related to
citicoline properties, or from the effect citicoline has on the dopamine or
other systems.

Stabilized cytidine 5'diphosphocholine is a
naturally occurring, water soluble biological compound that is an essential
intermediate for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, a major constituent of
the grey matter of brain tissue (30%). CDP choline is metabolized to yield the
free nucleotide cytidine and choline. Scientific research demonstrates that CDP
Choline consumption promotes brain metabolism by enhancing the synthesis of
acetylcholine, restoring phospholipid content in the brain and regulation of
neuronal membrane excitability and osmolarity (by its effect on the
ATP-dependent sodium and potassium pumps).

Thus far all the research we have seen with it has been in adults,
so we have no data regarding its use by those younger than 20. Just about all
the mind boosters have been tested in adults rather than in the young
