What is Elite Choline?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Elite Choline is a premium choline supplement designed to support optimal brain function, cognitive performance, and overall brain health. It combines two powerful forms of choline— GeniusPure® Alpha GPC and Cognizin® Citicoline—to provide a direct choline source along with a unique choline and cytidine source.
  • Alpha GPC (Alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine) is a highly bioavailable form of choline that is known for its ability to rapidly cross the blood-brain barrier, supporting the synthesis of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter essential for memory, focus, and cognitive function.
  • Citicoline (CDP-Choline) is a potent compound that not only provides choline but also contains cytidine, which is converted into uridine in the body. Uridine plays a key role in supporting brain cell membrane health and enhancing cognitive performance.
Together, these two ingredients create a comprehensive choline supplement that promotes cognitive clarity, memory, focus, and brain health, making Elite Choline the perfect choice for anyone looking to optimize their mental performance.

Whether you’re an athlete, student, professional, or simply seeking to maintain your brain health as you age, Elite Choline delivers the ideal combination of ingredients to support your cognitive well-being.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Elite Choline – The Best of Both Worlds & The Art of Synergy
--------------------------------------------------------------
Alpha-GPC and Citicoline (CDP-Choline) are both cholinergic compounds, meaning that they both support the production of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter in the brain.

What is Citicoline (CDP Choline)?
Citicoline, also known as CDP Choline, is a compound made up of choline and cytidine (a nucleoside), and it’s a precursor to both acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine (a major component of cell membranes). It is broken down in the body to provide both choline (for acetylcholine production) and cytidine (which can be converted to uridine, important for phospholipid synthesis in the brain and brain cell integrity). Therefore, it supports both acetylcholine production and rebuilding of cell membranes.

What is Cognizin?
Cognizin® Citicoline is a clinically tested, patented form of citicoline from Kyowa that uses a specialized production process and has been shown in multiple human clinical trials to support focus, attention, memory, healthy brain function, and more.

What is Alpha GPC?
Alpha GPC is (Alpha-glycerophosphocholine) is a naturally occurring choline compound found in the brain and in some food sources. It is a precursor to acetylcholine and also helps in the formation of phospholipids, which are essential for the integrity of cell membranes, especially in the brain. It is primarily known for its ability to directly increase acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in memory, learning, and overall brain function.

A Common Alpha GPC Label Deception:
A big deceptive practice in dietary supplements is brands using what appears to be a high dosage of Alpha GPC by labeling based off of the total input of Alpha GPC powder, which may only contain 10% to 50% actual Alpha GPC. This tricks many consumers into thinking they are getting a much higher dosage of active Alpha GPC than they actually are.

What is GeniusPure® Alpha GPC?
GeniusPure® is the highest potency Alpha GPC available, delivering a potent 90% active Alpha GPC.

Also, GeniusPure® is soy-free (most Alpha GPC is derived from soy).

By providing both Alpha GPC and Citicoline, Elite Choline provides both:
  • A direct choline source for acetylcholine synthesis and cell membrane health (Alpha GPC).
  • A choline and cytidine source, supporting both acetylcholine production and phospholipid synthesis, which can benefit cognitive function and brain cell integrity (Citicoline).
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Importance of Proper Dosing:
--------------------------------------------------------------
There is a huge problem in the dietary supplement industry with companies not meeting label claims and using deceptive labeling practices like proprietary blends to make customers think they are getting more of something than they really are.

Lately, there has been another disturbing trend and that has been some companies going to the other extreme and trying to market against the companies that are under dosing by mega-dosing – which is not good at all when it comes to certain things, like Alpha GPC and Citicoline. Doing things like that is marketing, not formulating, because with ingredients like Alpha GPC and Citicoline, too high of dosing can cause some of the things that people are trying to help avoid by taking them to begin with.

For example, the correct dosages may help reduce or eliminate brain fog. However, too high of dosing may make it worse. Another example, the correct dosages may help give a calm zoned in mental focus type feeling, whereas too high of dosing may not.

Elite Choline is formulated with dosages guided by science, not marketing.

1 capsule of Elite Choline = 175 mg. GeniusPure® Alpha GPC & 125 mg. Cognizin® Citicoline
2 capsules of Elite Choline = 350 mg. GeniusPure® Alpha GPC & 250 mg. Cognizin® Citicoline

Elite Choline allows you to take the dosage that works best for you!

--------------------------------------------------------------
Focus, Memory, & Cognitive Support
--------------------------------------------------------------
Elite Choline is a product that can be classified in multiple categories including as a nootropic and a healthy aging & longevity product due to its ability to support focus, memory, and cognitive health.

Alpha GPC is a bioavailable form of choline, which is a vital nutrient for the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in memory, learning, and attention. It has been shown to have neuroprotective benefits and to support cognitive function, particularly memory, and is believed to improve communication between brain cells, enhancing learning ability and memory recall.

Citicoline is another potent source of choline that supports the production of acetylcholine. Additionally, it helps in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, a major component of brain cell membranes, which supports overall brain health. Citicoline is known for improving focus, mental clarity, and attention and may help reduce brain fog and enhance the ability to stay focused for longer periods. Studies have shown that it can help improve both short- and long-term memory, particularly in individuals with age-related cognitive decline or attention issues.

By providing you with both Alpha-GPC and Citicoline, Elite Choline supports:
  • Focus & Mental Clarity
  • Memory
  • Learning
  • Attention
  • Concentration
  • Positive Mood
  • Cognitive Performance
  • Neuroprotective Properties
  • Healthy Aging & Longevity Support
Whether you’re trying to improve focus, attention, memory, and learning for studying, on the job performance, athletics, or trying to stay mentally sharp as you age, Elite Choline is here to help.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Sports Nutrition, Fitness, & Athletic Performance
--------------------------------------------------------------
Elite Choline, with its combination of GeniusPure® Alpha GPC and Cognizin® Citicoline, can be beneficial for sports, fitness, and athletic performance in several ways.

Alpha GPC has been shown to increase the release of acetylcholine, which plays a key role in muscle contraction and movement. Enhanced acetylcholine levels can improve neuromuscular function, leading to better coordination, strength, and power during exercise. Some studies have also shown that Alpha GPC can reduce the feeling of fatigue during exercise, potentially improving endurance and overall workout performance. Also, by supporting cognitive and neuromuscular function, Alpha GPC may aid in faster recovery between workouts, allowing athletes to train harder and more frequently.

Citicoline supports enhanced focus, mental clarity, and concentration, which is crucial for athletes when performing complex movements or during high-intensity training. In addition to its acetylcholine benefits, Citicoline contributes to the production of phosphatidylcholine, an important component of cell membranes, including those in the muscles. This helps maintain cellular integrity and supports muscle function during prolonged or intense physical activity. It can also help prevent cognitive fatigue which can lead to improved decision-making.

By providing you with both Alpha-GPC and Citicoline, Elite Choline supports:
  • Mental Focus, Clarity, & Concentration
  • Increased Physical Performance
  • Increased Mental Performance
  • Improved Coordination
  • Increased Strength
  • Enhanced Endurance
  • Decreased Fatigue
  • Improved Recovery
Elite Choline helps athletes and fitness enthusiasts by supporting both mental and physical performance. Whether you’re lifting weights, running, cycling, or engaging in other sports specific training, Elite Choline can help support both your brain and your body for peak performance.

Elite Choline is one that we have had in for awhile and some people had bought early to try it that had been looking forward to it, and the feedback has been great.

I was really surprised, in a good way, at how much I can feel Elite Choline.

One person that reads here but doesn't post, their feedback was that it reminded them of the zoned in feeling that they used to get from some of the racetam's back in the old days.

^^^ I hadn't thought about it like that before they mentioned it, but I'd agree with that myself.
 
How does this differ from the choline powder you offer? I love choline, I notice better mood, slee and quality of life when I take it.

Different types of choline work differently for different people.

I love our Choline Citrate powder. Like you, what I see from it is improved mood and quality of life, and just in general feel better on it. It's such a great and inexpensive daily use supplement. I still am using it daily for that and no plan of stopping.

Elite Choline for me is different in that its a very pronounced effect for focus and concentration. Whether its sitting in front of the computer doing a write up, researching, or cleaning my house, I can focus and stay on task a lot better, which is huge for me as I have severe ADD.
 
Been a big fan of this formula since I tried it. I take it every morning with my energy drink. Reduces stress, anxiety and makes it easier to focus and concentrate on whatever I am doing.

Ran out of it and had a week away and noticed quite a difference. I was not expecting the anxiety benefits at all.

It's also great pre workout too.

These advanced forms often offer better absorption, cross the BBB better and offer advantages of whatever else they may be attached to.

In general for Elite Choline the forms should provide more potent effects for cognition and should allow lower dosages of total Choline which can sometimes cause GI distress.

Choline Citrate is still a great option for more generalized benefits of Choline and extremely cost effective though.
 
So this is new to me, I picked up some. Usually everyone asks the questions so I don't have to. With or without foods. How long can you expect 1 capsule to last. For example should I take the 2nd one 5hours or so later everyday to continue the positives? Is there any fall off from using it everyday?

I take one cap first thing before food. I've found it to work most of the day. I take another if I'm working out.

I've been surprised that this thread didn't get more attention and interaction.

This is such a good product and good combination - I was really surprised how well this worked for me and how big of a difference I can feel with it.

I take 1 capsule in the morning. It normally works out to be without food, but sometimes with. I usually take with my morning coffee or energy drink.

The second daily dose is totally up to you - it helps my focus and it helps my motivation and my original plan was to take at least 1 cap per day every day and then take a second capsule on days I needed it - which has worked out to most every day.

I'm not training at the current time - if I was, I train in the evening and would be doing my morning dose and then 1 before training.

Been taking it in the morning with my coffee (and collagen) as well. I'm actually amazed at how much this has improved my mood and anxiety/OCD (diagnosed) levels. Like, this has been a godsend. I assumed that choline was more stimulatory, and it's often put in B-complex formulas, but this formula makes me so calm and focused, without the insane attention to detail that often keeps me from being more productive.

The whole idea of undermethylation/overmethylation has always struck me as psuedo-science, but I've been doing a deep dive on the matter and if there's validity to it, then I'm definitely in the undermethylated camp. Choline, particularly in these two forms, seems to check all the boxes for most (not all) folks in that category. So hopefully stumbling onto this will lead to a permanent change.

Steve, I was/am a little leery regarding the study attributing alpha-GPC use to heart issues (from a rise in TMAO), but I take a few supps that should counter that mechanism... vitamin D, omega-3s, fiber... so I'm not too concerned at this point. What are your thoughts? I know Huberman recommends allicin/garlic for that very reason with alpha-gpc.

Anyway... fantastic product.

P.S. Starting BASIS soon as well, so I'll provide some feedback on that when I'm a few weeks into it.

I'm glad to reply to this - I hope that people reading will take the time to read it in context.

I'm familiar with the study that you're referring to and the first thing that comes to mind is a line from the study under Limitations:

Limitations
This study has limitations. First, α-GPC users were older and had more comorbidities than α-GPC nonusers, which suggests that α-GPC users may already have subclinical atherosclerotic changes.

What is TMAO?
TMAO, or trimethylamine N-oxide, is a compound produced by gut bacteria as a byproduct of digesting certain foods, like red meat, eggs, and dairy. It is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and other health issues.

What is the primary cause of increased levels of TMAO?
Increased levels of TMAO are mainly attributed to diet, drugs, liver enzyme activity, and gut microbiota. Diet is the main source of TMAO. TMAO is, or at least at first was attributed mainly to red meat. Higher levels of TMAO in plasma were associated with a low-carbohydrate diet and high resistant starch content. However, now it has been shown that some fish, particularly saltwater fish and shellfish are naturally high in TMAO.

^^^ this could be particularly relevant and link back to the study you're referring to because of the age of the individuals in the study and also the high consumption of saltwater fish in Korea.

Alpha GPC & Cardiovascular Health:
There are studies that show that Alpha GPC is good for cardiovascular health and helps improve heart rate variability and blood pressure, especially after strenuous exercise.

Alpha GPC may increase TMAO, but anything that you eat that has choline in it may increase TMAO.

A Problem in the Industry - Mega Dosing Alpha GPC:
This industry has a major problem of brands under-dosing products and sprinkling in meaningless dosages in propriety blends.

However, this industry also has a newer problem - which is brands not really formulating as much as just throwing in high dosages of everything under the sun for label appeal purposes - and that can be bad for a lot of things - and especially things like Alpha GPC because of what we're discussing here and also because mega dosing Alpha GPC can cause brain fog and some of the other things that taking a lower dosage of Alpha GPC can help alleviate.

I had mentioned that long before we ever came out with Alpha GPC - that the dosages that some were using in Alpha GPC products were getting ridiculous.

With Alpha GPC, you want to use the lowest effective dose.

The dosage of Elite Choline is perfect in my opinion 1 to 2 capsules per day works fantastic and is all a person needs; and this is one that mega dosing it wouldn't be a good thing, it would be more likely to feel less from mega dosing than more.

I appreciate your detailed and informative response regarding Alpha-GPC/the study/TMAO. (y)

I'd taken 600mg of Alpha-GPC previously, and a few of the supplements/energy drinks I've used have had citicoline. But you're right-on regarding combination and dosage... because I've never had this kind of anti-anxiety and focus effects from any other form of choline supplementation. Good stuff, man.
 
Should this be ran daily for best results, or saved for days when a boost in productivity is really needed? (I’m specifically thinking of days in my corporate office which also have a 2 hour each way commute).

I have noticed a mood boost from Cognizin in the past (on a discontinued product), but have not tried this combo.

It depends on your goals.

It has a lot of really good healthy aging and longevity cognitive benefits and for that, it should be taken daily.

I think that its best to take at least 1 capsule daily and another capsule on the days that one feels like they need to.

The mood boost on this has been very noticeable for me.
