Citicoline, sometimes also referred to as CDP Choline, is one of the best forms of choline available. Unlike GPC, which is better suited to physical activity in terms of side-benefits, Citicoline (CDP) actually has a number of reported side-benefits which directly affect cognitive functions and we believe that it is a more effective source of choline. Here's why.
It crosses the blood-brain barrier with ease, as it should. This is partly because it is naturally occurring within the brain during certain chemical processes, but also because there are studies which demonstrate its positive effects on mental energy and focus/concentration.
Furthermore, it is useful for improving memory retention³ and there are links to Citicoline improving visual function.⁴⁵
CDP Choline is said to increase the density of dopamine (the feel-good hormone) receptors in the brain⁶, as well as amplify the release of the vital hormones within the HPA (Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal) axis of the brain.⁷
This choline compound forms one of the fundamental components of our Ultracholine® formula because of its highly-specific cognitive benefits.

causes intense drowsiness
I wish this worked for me. It didn't. Caused tiredness, fatigue, sleepiness and some depression. I adjusted the doses with gaps right down to 50mg and the unwanted effects persisted.
Could this be due to my low iron? Or would using a racetam with this make a difference?

Banging source of choline this
F**k me the difference between Mn's CDP and ANYONE elses is just nuts. What i thought was a good thing to take before but not notice it much on it's own, was just a bunk product bulked up with something. This choline actually sparkles and is the purest white i can ever think of. No seriously i enjoy just looking at this stuff!

Better Cognition
Apart from the exceptional quality of this product, the effectiveness is evident in just a few days. My mind is less 'foggy' and memory vastly improved.
I combine it with UMP powder and Phosphatidylserine capsules. This combination seems to work very well.

Clear head
This gives me a clear head and helps me focus, especially when I need a little extra help when hormones are messing with my head. It took me a while to find a dose that works for me but after reading about how choline has a half life of more than a day I decreased my dose and the headaches I got from it initially disappeared. So for me a smaller dose is more effective but I guess it depends on the individual. Wouldn't want to be without it now.
