Apollo's Hegemony CDP Choline is a dietary supplement in the form of vegetable capsules, containing 300 mg of CDP-choline per serving. The product is suitable for people on vegan and vegetarian diets.
CDP-choline (cytidyl-5'-diphosphocholine, cyticoline) is a naturally occurring substance in the body, and in synthetic form is one of three commonly used oral choline-containing phospholipids (along with Alpha-GPC and phosphatidylcholine).
After ingestion, CDP-choline is hydrolyzed in the body to choline and cytidine (which is in turn converted to uridine). Cytidine is a pyrimidine nucleoside, from which cytidine-5′-triphosphate (CTP) is formed by biochemical transformations, involved, among other things, in the synthesis of phospholipids in the so-called Kennedy pathway. Choline, on the other hand, is involved in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine and acetylcholine (ACh). Both choline and cytidine penetrate the blood-brain barrier quite easily.
In conclusion, Apollo's Hegemony CDP Choline is ideal during periods of intense mental effort to support the proper functioning of the nervous system.
