Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Been using Healthy Origins® Cognizin® Citicoline for years. Never was sure it did much for my brain. Switching over to DoubleWood® brand CDP Choline (citicoline), I noticed a difference. DoubleWood's product seemed to stimulate my brain more, helping it produce needed neurotransmitters. I'm pretty short of those because I go days without any sleep and my nervous system is shot. I use CDP Choline regularly these days. I also use (NOW) dopa mucuna from time to time. Dopa mucuna contains l-dopa, which the body converts to dopamine. CDP Choline can be used to PREVENT reuptake of dopamine - after taking dopa mucuna. Doesn't take much CDP really to extend the bliss of dopamine. Because my insomniac brain is rather starved for neurotransmitters, a sudden influx of dopamine can be euphoric, mildly. A peaceful easy feeling. Helps to combine CDP/citicoline with necessary vitamins and minerals (for neurotransmitter production). Otherwise you're stimulating production of something your body may not have sufficient raw ingredients for. Choose the most bioavailable formats. DoubleWood®s other products are quality as well - Phosphatidyl-serine, Alpha-GPC, and Pterostilbene. I've tried them, and do recommend them. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = === E N D original ==== = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = *UPDATE* 11/12/18 Comparing DoubleWood's CDP choline with their Alpha-GPC: Both boost acetyl-choline in the brain. CDP choline however, stimulates the brain more ... while Alpha-GPC feels nourishing/satisfying (especially when paired with phosphatidylserine). Also, I recommend pairing DoubleWood's CDP choline with NOW's Ultra Omega 3 Fish Oil for major nourishment/choline boosting - feels so good right now to my sleep-deprived brain. [ Link to fish oil: https://www.amazon.com/NOW-Ultra-Omega-Fish-Softgels/dp/B000SE5SY6/ ] (Much more effective fish oil than Jarrow Formulas EPA-DHA Balance in my EXPERIENCE. I just switched from Jarrow.) = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = E N D 2018 update = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = *UPDATE* 6/15/2020 Today I tried combining CDP Choline with SAMe. Whoa. A new dimension. My mind has been altered. Hard to explain. SAMe is is really enabling neurotransmitter production, it feels like. Feels good. Should have tried this sooner. Only took a fifth of a coated SAMe tablet - specifically Jarrow Formulas SAMe 200mg. And a quarter capsule of CDP Choline. And a touch of Solaray's B-Stress Complex (careful about taking much concentrated B vitamins with CDP Choline - amplifies effects a little too much, for me anyway).
