CITICOOS
A food supplement made up of highly fat-soluble phospholipids, for greater central availability, such as glycerophosphorylcholine and glycerophosphorylethanolamine; essential and neurotransmitter amino acids such as tryptophan and taurine; essential polyunsaturated fatty acids such as Omega 6 (linoleic and gamma-linolenic) and Omega 3 (DHA, EPA); endogenous antioxidants such as thioctic acid and vitamin E; vitamins B1 and B6; and minerals and trace elements such as Mg, Se and Zn. These components act as normalisers of brain processes which, when altered, lead to degeneration, ageing, reduced neuronal energy metabolism and therefore reduced mental performance, especially in the elderly. Indicated in cases of reduced mental performance in the elderly, as protection against the damage of alcoholism and in attention and cognitive disorders during development; in ENT for tinnitus and dizziness. It also finds rational use in ophthalmology thanks to the synergistic action of Vit. E/thioctic acid/Se/Omega 6 and Omega 3 as homeostatic cofactors against degenerative damage (cataract, retinopathies), plus the action of Zn/taurine/B1 and B6/G.P. choline and G.P. ethanolamine as homeostatic cofactors for the physiological nervous, microcirculatory and muscular standard of the visual system, in glaucoma.
Highly fat-soluble phospholipids (G.P. Choline and G.P. Ethanolamine)
They are homeostatic for central cholinergic and aminergic functions, neuronal metabolism and membrane phospholipid composition. They therefore help attention, memory, concentration, emotional life and behaviour.
Tryptophan
An essential brain amino acid, it is the precursor of serotonin, which regulates mood together with vitamins B1 and B6.
Taurine
An amino acid with a neurotransmitter function; together with B6 and Mg it has an inhibitory role and is essential in cases of psychological stress.
Essential polyunsaturated fatty acids, Omega 6 and Omega 3
They act mainly on cell membranes, including red blood cells, on cholesterol and triglyceride metabolism and on the negative effects of free radicals. Their ratio (3:1) improves cerebral perfusion.
Thioctic acid
An endogenous antioxidant which, together with vitamin E, blocks the oxidation of membrane lipoproteins and finds rational use in degenerative conditions (brain ageing, alcoholism, diabetes).
Vitamin B1
An essential enzyme cofactor for physiological neuronal sugar metabolism, creating energy available at central level, where it also helps improve cell communication.
Vitamin B6
It is involved in serotonin metabolism, helping to improve mood, protects against the negative effects of alcohol and regulates the balance of sodium and potassium.
Magnesium
Synergistic with taurine, it is involved in the metabolism of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, GABA, serotonin and adrenaline. It also creates energy reserves available at mitochondrial level.
Zinc
It acts as a mediator in collagen protein synthesis and as an antioxidant, and helps maintain physiological bioelectrical activity.
Selenium
It is part of glutathione and plays an important, recognised antioxidant role.
It ensures excellent availability and rapid absorption, also thanks to the special microgranule formulation, which does not alter palatability or cause oesophageal reflux.
