Pure Encapsulations Phosphatidylcholine (sunflower)

Pure Encapsulations Phosphatidylcholine (sunflower) offers phospholipid-bound choline to support cellular function, cognitive function and liver health.

• Soy-free, GMO-free, sunflower-derived phosphatidylcholine.
• Major source of methyl groups to promote healthy methylation, particularly for individuals with MTHFR or PEMT genetic variations
• Acts as a precursor for phospholipids and acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in attention, memory, and neuromuscular function
• Supports fat metabolism in the liver to promote energy production
• Provides choline source for pregnancy to support infant cognitive development

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a naturally occurring, integral component of the cellular membrane, adding fluidity and strength to cells. It serves as a source of choline, an important nutrient for methylation, cell-to-cell communication, cognition and liver function. Choline and its metabolites are the major source of methyl groups in the diet. Methylation plays many roles including neurotransmission, vitamin assimilation, DNA synthesis and gene regulation. Choline is required for the synthesis of phospholipids and acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in attention, learning and memory.
