Our Brains As We Age: What Can We Do?

We all know that growing older means becoming more forgetful, more confused, and just not as sharp as our 18-year-old selves. Knowing this, is there anything we can do about it? Absolutely!

Neurons are the cells responsible for sending and receiving sensory data and input from external sources. As we age, our neurons actually shrink and extract their dendrites (the direct receiver of the communication between cells). The number of connections (also known as synapses) between neurons also decreases, resulting in slower learning and impaired memory.

Enter our friend, Alpha GPC. Alpha-GPC or Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine, is a compound that offers large amounts of choline to the body when consumed in supplemental form. More than 40% of Alpha-GPC is actually made of choline. Choline directly supports cell membranes and cell messaging in the brain and it is the precursor to the essential neurotransmitter acetylcholine. So, when we consume Alpha-GPC, we are actually consuming choline, which directly supports our neurological health and facilitates the production of the powerful neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

Alpha-GPC is actually often used to treat neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and strokes. Furthermore, it helps strengthen our memory and can help reverse the cognitive decline often experienced through some of these neurological diseases as well as the normal aging process. This nootropic compound also helps to improve overall learning abilities.

Alpha-GPC helps counteract some of these typical neurological signs of aging by providing more acetylcholine for the brain. Aging and some of these neurological diseases result in a loss of neurons that produce acetylcholine for the brain to use. This is why when we age we experience this cognitive decline. So, by providing choline and acetylcholine for the brain to use, Alpha-GPC helps offset that potential loss in acetylcholine-producing neurons.

Kimera’s coffee blend actually contains this powerful nootropic as part of our brain-boosting formula. We really wanted to highlight and utilize Alpha-GPC’s amazing brain benefits and bring them to you in a convenient and tasty way. This brain-boosting vitamin really is so incredible, and it should be a part of your everyday life. Who knew your cup of coffee could boost your energy AND your brain? We’ll drink to that!
