Alpha-GPC (alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine, choline alfoscerate) is a compound that naturally occurs in the brain as well as several food sources, including eggs, fish, meat, and dairy. Although it occurs naturally within us, Alpha-GPC can also be synthesized from natural sources and made into a powder, which is sometimes added to capsules and is often taken as a nootropic supplement.
Alpha-GPC Capsules contain choline, which is an essential nutrient humans may acquire through diet or supplementation. Alpha-GPC is known to have cognitive benefits and has even been shown to improve athletic performance.
Alpha-GPC shows promising results through anecdotal evidence and animal studies. Alpha-GPC uses include:
Alpha-GPC is GRAS-affirmed by the FDA, which means it is a compound that is generally recognized as safe. It is a naturally sourced, high-quality product.
Alpha-GPC is a hygroscopic compound, which means it draws in moisture from the air around it, physically changing it from a powder to a gel-like substance when not stored properly. While this hygroscopic effect doesn’t necessarily mean the product has degraded, it is a sign of improper storage. Storing your Alpha-GPC in airtight containers (think vacuum seal) is helpful.
As a dietary supplement, take one 150mg Alpha-GPC capsule 1-2 times daily.

Works great. I use it with all my nootropics for a choline source. I use it for working out, mental energy and libido enhancement. Been ordering from Nootropics Depot for a few years and have not had any issues. Fast shipping and great products.
Highly recommend. Very pleased with purchase.

Great product, but it could be 300mg dose. ND Admin: We went with 150mg to allow people to take a lower dose. Some people get side effects with too much choline, so we didn't want to force them to take too much for their brain chemistry.
I like the product as it does get rid of the headaches from piracetam but I find it to make me a little irritable(I don't think it's the product I think it's good my body reacts to it) overall shipping, customer service and price were awesome! Definitely recommend!
Honestly didn’t feel anything. Wish i could return it. Does not do what it says. Hope others have better experience.
Prevents headaches due to racetam use.
I believe this is working for me. Unfortunately all the other nootropics made me gain weight, so the jury is still out on gpc.
I'm a newbie in the Nootropics world, but I've read a ton about the importance of a good quality choline source - and for me this seems to hit the spot. I've taken alone and with Racetrams, and have successfully avoided the dreaded racetram headache every single time. I have only bought my products/supplements from Nootropics Depot because I feel that they are an honest company and that they produce high quality supplements at a very reasonable price.
One dose of Alpha GPC first thing in the morning gives me a calm feeling for that entire day. I can appreciate the little things went in general I just pass them by. My brain generally is over thinking stuff and is in a constant state of worry. I'm guessing that is depleting my choline levels and Alpha GPC kind of fuels me back. Feels like my brain is switching operational mode, but in a natural way. No feelings of being under the influence of anything. Definitely on my everyday stack. Without a doubt.
I don't get headaches when I take piracetam but I wanted to try this anyways for its cognitive and physical boost. Took it for 2 days and my head became really heavy. Oh well
Great choice to stack with noopept as you’ll get bad headaches it you don’t take this with it. This is a top quality product!
I found great benefit from this. However, I've noticed that your need for this product will vary with your body chemistry at any given point in time. I'm going to have to research acetylcholine levels and receptor sensitivity etc but sometimes I take it when I can tell I need it and other times I take it, I'll get a headache......probably indicating I didn't need it.
Just as advertized, pair it with any racetam or noopept
This is my main choline source
Other than use with Ani not sure of effect.
i initially bought the product to count the occasional headaches caused by racetams. eventually, i found myself supplementing with it even on days that i do not take racetams all together. i've come to find out its a very good, if not the best, choline supplement. and in my case, being vegetarian and have a somewhat improper food balance, alpha gpc has shown me great benefits to my overall health and cognitive functions. another great product by a great manufacturer that i have added to my daily stack of supplements. again, endless thanks to you guys.
If you supplement with racetams, then this is a great part of the stack, especially if you're a little prone to racetam headaches. This Alpha-GPC also gives you a nice extra boost if you workout regularly or engage in any kind of sports. Definitely recommended!
These are good if you need a more standard dose of a cholinergic. I ended up needing the bulk powder as the amount in a single cap is too much for me. The product itself is great and packaged well.
I take 900mg of Alpha-GPC every night with Coluracetam. Due to a hereditary condition I can tell when I haven't taken Alpha-GPC, and so I can personally vouch for the quality here at ND. The capsules are a great introduction to Alpha-GPC for people who maybe don't have a scale or are looking for an easy way to get their daily choline. That said, if you're someone like myself who uses a large amount of Alpha-GPC on the regular, I'd sincerely suggest buying ND's bulk powder; the unit price is a bit better.
........and for a number of reasons. The pills major supplement sellers (Jarrow, Doctor's Best, Now) sell on Amazon are too high a dosage. Unless you're using to help with exercise or some notable deficit, most people take this as a choline source to go with racetam and other nootropics. And 500 mg of Alpha GPC is just too damn much that these places sell. 150 mg or something about like what you have here is more appropriate. Also, most Alpha GPC comes in the ordinary white capsules. The problem with Alpha GPC is that it gets old or something over time where the capsules you could practically squeeze and have stuff ooze out of them, sort of the opposite about supplement capsules of herbs which simply get hard. Here, NootropicsDepot solves the problem by putting the Alpha GPC in a small liquid gel capsule, much like common oily supplements like krill oil or Vitamin D come in. This is great!
