Does Phosphatidylcholine Slow Down Aging?

Phosphatidylcholine is a well-known combination of:

Choline: a precursor of acetylcholine which a very important neurotransmitter that at least partially mediates mood, memory and intelligence, and of

Phospholipids: contained in every cell in the human body, including the brain cells.

Many doctors and nutritionists believe that it follows, therefore, that phosphatidylcholine is essential to normal brain function and that a supplement may help the aging to retain a good memory and thought processes. This is particularly interesting, and also very believable, in view of the fact that the 90% phosphatidylcholine contained in an infant's cell membranes can be reduced to 10% in the cells of the aged.

There are few doubts as to the incorporation into the body of phosphatidylcholine. Also, lecithin, that is largely composed of this interesting phospholipid, is also recommended as a supplement to help aid memory and cognitive function. Yes, definitive proof is still needed, but the theory is there and it is so compelling that many experts in the field are convinced of the value of a supplement of phosphatidylcholine to the maintenance of the membranes of brain cells and the effect of that on the maintenance of good memory and brain function.
