Building blocks of body cells, it’s responsible for communication between brain cells
60% of our brain’s dry weight are lipids, and one of the main lipid group are phospholipids
Phosphotidyl-Serine (PS)
Glycerol backbone is attached to 2 Fatty acids and a Polar head group
Improve Cognition-Cognition difficulties: memory decline associated with aging or pathological deterioration, can be improved by supplementing from external source. - PS has beneficial affect on memory, learning and attention.- FDA Health Claim in April 2003: “ Consumption of Phosphotidylserine may reduce the risk of cognitive dysfunction in elderly.
Support Skin Health-PS influences membrane stability, cell to cell communication, signal pathways and cell repair mechanism. - Protect the skin from Photondamage: Prevents collagen loss, Reduces Epidermal Thickness, Increase skin moisture and decrease wrinkle formation.
Depression and Stress Reduction- PS is responsible for communication between brain cells and helps preserve optimal hormonal balance, hence it reduces depressions and stress.
Enhance Sport Performance -Studies shows that intake of PS can lead to improve recovery, Increased time to exhaustion and reduced muscle soreness that hence improve workout performance,, by regulating the exercise related hormones (cortisol and testosterone)
PET Scans at 3 levels of the brain of a 59-year-old woman with cognitive decline. With 500mg/day of PS intake for 3 weeks. (Klinkhammer et al, 1,197.tingoc, 1990)
Double blind, placebo-controlled study study carried out by in 1993, the effects for 57 elderly who consumed PS (300mg/day ) for 12 weeks (Gindin et al, 1993)
Randomized-double blind study The eye wrinkle were evaluated by dermatologist based on global photo damage score (0 none- 7 very severe). PS (300mg/day for 12 weeks) vs control.
The hairless mice were orally administrated with 50mg/kg PS , the quantification of the numbers and depths of wrinkles in gross surface area of mice dorsal skin.

Time to exhaustion increase 30 %

Improve in recovery
PS increase Testosterone, and lead to enhance in strength and muscle size, while decrease coritsol which will lead to proteolysis. Starks et al, Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2008 (Exercise: cycle ergometer)

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)Was discovered in bacteria and identified as an essential redox cofactor.
Omitting PQQ from diets can lead to growth impairment, compromised immune system and abnormal reproductive function Co-factor that play
important role in cell signaling pathway
