Cognizin® Citicoline and energy. 

Energy reserves play a critical role in healthy brain function. The first vital benefit of Cognizin® is its ability to help support the brain's energy producing centers.*  While the brain makes up only two percent of a person’s body weight, it consumes roughly 20 percent of the body’s energy when at rest. When performing difficult mental activities, the brain needs even more energy. Clinical research indicates that citicoline supports the health of mitochondria, the powerhouses within cells that actually produce the brain’s energy.* Healthy mitochondrial function results in higher levels of ATP—the body’s main energy storage molecule—in brain cells.

Cognizin® Citicoline and Cognitive health.

Citicoline is often called a "brain nutrient" because it increases levels of several important neurotransmitters, including acetylcholine, an important brain chemical that regulates cognitive function.  Cognizin® Citicoline has also been shown to support the activity of nerves that respond to acetylcholine, helping to raise activity levels in the brain's learning and communication circuits.*
