Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a member of the phospholipid family and has a wide range of functions in the body. It is the only phospholipid that can regulate the functional state of key proteins in the cell membrane, and is the key to maintaining cell function, especially in the brain.
Phosphatidylserine accounts for 13–15 % of the phospholipids in the human cerebral cortex. In the plasma membrane, PS is localized exclusively in the cytoplasmic leaflet where it forms part of protein docking sites necessary for the activation of several key signaling pathways. These include the Akt, protein kinase C (PKC) and Raf-1 signaling that is known to stimulate neuronal survival, neurite growth, and synaptogenesis. Modulation of the PS level in the plasma membrane of neurons has a significant impact on these signaling processes.
Taking phosphatidylserine is to prevent memory loss and mental decline that may occur with age.
It will strengthen your brain power. People who took phosphatidylserine scored higher on short-term memory, mood, and attention tests.
Scientists used phosphatidylserine in research to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
Phosphatidylserine is known as a new “smart nutrient” after choline and “brain gold” DHA. Experts believe that this natural substance can help the cell wall to maintain flexibility, and can enhance the efficiency of neurotransmitters that transmit brain signals, help the brain to operate efficiently, and stimulate the activation state of the brain. Specifically, phosphatidylserine has the following functions:
1) It can effectively improve the vitality of brain cells, prevent and improve Alzheimer’s
disease in the elderly.
2) Help repair brain damage, improve cognitive ability, especially learning and memory ability.
3) Stabilize mood, improve insomnia
4) Increase concentration, improve ADHD and other symptoms
5) Relieve tension, depression and physical fatigue, and improve the body’s immunity.
