Choline
No, I think it's better to take something like ALCAR to raise acetylcholine.

CDP-Choline is too expensive, choline bitartrate is more practical. CDP-choline also has some pharmacological actions (it was a drug before it was a dietary supplement) that the world at large may not be looking for.
i agree... bitartrate is cheap and works

I think cdp-choline and alpha-gpc should be thrown out, because they are unstable and typically have to be bonded to glycine; plus, they're super expensive.
still, i do fancy the idea of centrophenoxine in my multivitamin

Funk, what is your general overall opinion of CDP? Positive or negative?CDP-Choline is too expensive, choline bitartrate is more practical. CDP-choline also has some pharmacological actions (it was a drug before it was a dietary supplement) that the world at large may not be looking for.

I'm pretty sure it's both more bioavailable and has different effects than bitartate.

Too expensive, and probably no real advantage over less espensive stuff.

I'd like a blend of the two. If this ended being a powder for some reason, you might want to lean toward alpha-GPC as its sweet, but CDP is horrendously bitter.
They improve sleep, cognitive function...I was going to say no-brainer, but uhhhh. Anyway, they should be in. They both are slightly different in action too.

CDP-choline and alpha-GPC have zero problems with customs. I formulate and pull this stuff in all the time. ZERO issues. I've never heard of issues. Never. Simple to get, from nearly all suppliers.

Interesting. I'd like to see these in the multi, too, but what would the costs look like? Putting these in there would be pretty awesome, though... I'd be willing to pay a reasonable amount more for this.

neogenic, correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't cdp-choline and alpha-gpc usually bonded to glycine?

i suppose i'll just throw out the different forms of choline that i know of off the top of my head.
phosphatidylcholine
choline bitartrate
choline citrate
cdp-choline
alpha-gpc
dmae
centrophenoxine
adafenoxate
... ... What if someone consumed them all?! ... ...

We need to stick with the basics. We need the most compatibility with the highest number of people possible. That would exlcude these fancier, more expensive, and less researched/tested forms of choline. I would also say no to phosphatidylcholine, considering that it's relatively large. Bitartrate or Citrate would save space.

At which dose?CDP-Choline makes me horribly anxious.

scrap that idea altogether and add Ashwagandha (more cost-effective?)
