Q&A

Frequently asked questions

Why does Noopept cause headaches in some users?
Noopept accelerates synaptic transmission, rapidly consuming acetylcholine. If acetylcholine precursors (choline) are depleted, it causes a neurotransmitter shortage that manifests as a mild tension headache. Adding a bioavailable choline source resolves this immediately.
What is the main difference between Alpha-GPC and Citicoline?
Alpha-GPC has a higher concentration of active choline (40%) and is highly effective at boosting acetylcholine for memory. Citicoline has 21% active choline but includes cytidine (converting to uridine), which additionally boosts dopamine receptors and brain cellular energy.
