Works as expected
What makes me say this works well is that I have dose-dependent effects. I pair it up with Racetams and if I don't take the right ratio of this with them I get side effects. If I do, it's a very smooth, clear effect.
Alpha-GPC, also known as choline alfoscerate and alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine, is a choline-containing compound found naturally in the brain as well as in small amounts in foods like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy.Alpha-GPC is also a natural phospholipid.
Studies and evidence show that alpha-GPC is considered one of the most efficient sources of choline, a fat-soluble member of the B vitamin complex. This indicates that alpha-GPC may effectively increase concentrations of choline.
Many potential alpha-GPC uses focus on its state as a precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that helps the brain send signals to nerves throughout the body. Acetylcholine has been shown to play an important role in memory formation, concentration, logical reasoning, and learning.
Studies indicate that alpha-GPC may support greater synaptic plasticity. This is essentially your brain’s method of adaptation and changing to new information, controlling how your neurons communicate with one another, which results in the process of creating and recalling memories. This may translate to improved retrieval and retention of information. According to research, alpha-GPC may enhance your overall learning capacity and problem solving abilities.
Alpha-GPC is reported to support cognitive health. While there are no randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials showing this is true in healthy adults, anecdotal evidence shows support.
We offer a naturally derived, non-GMO alpha-GPC product manufactured with organic ingredients. Alpha-GPC is also GRAS-affirmed by the FDA, meaning it is Generally Recognized As Safe.
Our Alpha-GPC 99% Powder is a nearly pure product for those who desire full potency, but we also offer Alpha-GPC 50% Powder for those concerned with alpha-GPC’s sensitive hygroscopic nature.
As a dietary supplement, take 300mg of Alpha-GPC once daily.
Alpha GPC and Hygroscopy
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. While we take steps to ensure this does not happen to your product, should Alpha-GPC 99% arrive with clumps, simply break them up prior to use.
Why don’t we sell an Alpha-GPC 100% Powder? Alpha-GPC with a purity of greater than 99% will undergo hygroscopy very quickly as soon as it meets the air.
Always discuss the addition of nootropics and supplements with your doctor or another trusted healthcare professional, and stay informed about how a product might affect you--everyone is different.
Nootropics Depot offers both a 30g and 60g jar of Alpha GPC 99% powder.

Very good value, will last for months as long as serving size is followed. Have not had problems with congealing due to water and I’m not overly cautious, just be sure to close after each use.

I like cognizin better than this, but it still works pretty well for memory support and focus for me.
I prefer cognizin, I feel like it does more than this.
I took it before running and couldn't finish my run. I came home and stayed in bed the whole day. This product made me very tired and foggy. The other day I felt as if someone is scraping with a spoon into the iner side of my head. I wonder why other people have great experience with this product and I had really bad one?
This is extremely pure. I only need like 50mg sublingual. Boosts mental energy and focus. Too much makes me tired though. I put an extra moisture absorbing pack in it and, as another reviewer stated, shake it up before and after opening which eliminates clumps.
Great product, highly effective. Just be aware it is extremely hydrophilic, even when I double ziplocked it with multiple silica gel packets it still clumped up but otherwise it’s good.
One thing I am going to address in this review are the comments of other customers complaining the powder changes form due to humidity. Listen, I live on an island and it doesn't get more humid than that. I keep the bottle on a bookshelf next to a constantly open balcony door, but away from sunlight of course. In summer, I don't even run the A/C when it gets above 30C (that's 86F for you yanks ;-)). And the powder, even at 99% purity, remains in powder form and does not turn into a paste or some hardened blobs. Before use, just shake the bottle really well so that the anti-humidity bag inside breaks apart anything that might have agglomerated and it'll be fine. Speaking of fine, it is a very fine product indeed.
Nootropics Depot has the most timely shipping of any company I've ever dealt with. Much appreciated!
pure and fine
Alpha Gpc has a kind of sweet taste, so does nootropics depot alpha Gpc, love the taste and it helps transport all the other nootropics to my brain.
Sooo tasty!! Clumps a lot, but thats manageable. Otherwise i'm very pleased with the product! Kinda helps with brain fog, thought I've only used it for several days.
By far the best nootropic I have taken. I am 79 years old man; I have taken nootropics since 1975 and I was shocked at the benefits I am/have receiving from NOOTROPICS DEPOT Alpha GPC 99%....This substance is a nootropic extraordinaire, in a class of its own. You will have to just try it to see what I mean; there is nothing I have tried that is like it....Simply the best.....yogi, tucson desert
Essential for the choline component of a nootropic stack, I use 400 mg of alpha gpc and 400 mg of citicolin (cognizin)
I have been using this powder fo a couple years. It has given me energy and it help me shed my cellulite! I receive my orders within 3 days maximum of ordering. I highly recommend this product and company. Thanks guys!
I mis this with butterfly pea flower, and CitiCholine!!! Makes for a fantastic #betterthancoffee drink with lemon, hot water, and honey!!! I absolutely love the work you do nootropics depot and I look forward to using your products in the #future Thank you for running such a clean and superb business... I hope to one day be 1/4 as successful as you currently are!!! Thank you tons from Tyler “TheNüTropian” Hutson
I really am enjoying the way that this pairs with the Cognizin! So glad I ordered this and the Cognizin together! Helps start my day off right, right along with the rest of my stack. Thank you, again, for another awesome product and combo!
Alpha GPC is a great product to take before you workout. I get focused and energized from taking this product. I will purchase again.
After I got this and found out they have a pure powder form also, I ordered it as well. The reason it is 50 percent, is to keep it from retaining moisture. The pure form was very sticky. So when I run out, going with this form on repeat.
The best to rack with ALL Racetams... and taste like Marshmallow!!! Yum!
