Phosphatidylserine Powder Bulk 20%

What is Phosphatidylserine Powder?

Phosphatidylserine is also known as complex neuronic acid, or PS for short. It is an important membrane phospholipid in bacterial, yeast, plant, and mammalian cells. It is the active substance of cell membranes and is usually located in the inner layer of the cell membrane. It is especially found in the human nervous system. Its function is mainly to improve nerve cells' function and regulate nerve impulse conduction, as well as to play an important role in regulating the brain's various functions (especially for the brain's memory and emotional stability).

Phosphatidylserine is a ubiquitous class of phospholipids, belonging to the phosphoglycerol ester class of phosphorus ester compounds, and is derived from natural sources such as bovine (sheep) brain or soybeans. Due to its unique chemical structure, Phosphatidylserine is amphiphilic, i.e. it is hydrophilic and lipophilic, so it is easily absorbed in the body. Its strong lipophilicity, after absorption, can quickly enter the brain through the blood-brain barrier, play a role in soothing the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels, and increase the blood supply to the brain.

Benefits:

Repair Brain Damage and Improve Cognitive

Phosphatidyl serine is one of the main components of the brain's nerves, which can nourish and activate the activity of various enzymes in the brain, and can delay the process of neurotransmitter reduction. Helps repair and update damaged brain cells and eliminate harmful substances.

Suzuki S et al. examined a Morris underwater maze escape test in memory-impaired adult rats. The results showed that the behavior of male adult rats was significantly improved by feeding trans phosphatidyl synthesized soybean phosphatidylserine (SB-tPS) for 60 d. The test also found that the phosphatidylserine powder contained a product that promoted the release of acetylcholine and the activity of the enzyme Na+/K+-ATPase, and that, as acetylcholine accumulates in the brain, the transmission of messages between nerve cells in the brain is accelerated, thus contributing to the promotion of brain function and the enhancement of memory, thinking and analytical ability.

Improves Cognition

Phosphatidylserine keeps brain cells mobile and permeable. This neuroplasticity helps neurons form new connections necessary for memory formation. It increases mental energy by facilitating the flow of glucose and oxygen needed by brain cells. Phosphatidylserine is an integral part of the flow of key neurotransmitters such as dopamine and acetylcholine. Phospholipids contain choline, the precursor to acetylcholine (ACh). Therefore, more PS will increase the levels of ACh in our brains, which will improve cognition.

Stress Release

Phosphatidylserine powder promotes the release of these 4 major neurotransmitters - serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, and acetylcholine. This speeds up communication between brain cells and significantly reduces excessive levels of stress hormones in people with stressful jobs. Reduces stress and relieves brain fatigue. It also promotes concentration, improves alertness and memory, and relieves bad moods.

Drago F et al. found that it took a shorter time than the control group to recover normal body temperature after phosphatidylserine injection in elderly rats with elevated body temperature due to restraint and repression, suggesting that phosphatidylserine can enhance self-protection in elderly rats in emergencies.

Koutoku T injected PS into chicks using the ventricular injection method, and then the chicks were returned to their original cages and isolated in plastic cages for 10 min. It was found that the number of vocalizations and spontaneous activities in the group injected with 160 μg of phosphatidylserine was significantly lower than those in the blank group, and it was inferred that phosphatidylserine was able to alleviate the isolation-induced stressful and depressing state.

Applications:

For Health Products:

In May 2006, the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) permitted the addition of phosphatidylserine powder to products that prominently display PS and advertise that the products have the function of "improving bad mood, enhancing memory and preventing dementia", etc. In October 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Phosphatidylserine GRAS (Genearlly Recognised As Safe), which means that phosphatidylserine powder can be added as a nutritionally fortified functional food ingredient in yoghurt, milk powder, bread, solid beverages and other food products, and PS is the only FDA-approved functional ingredient with a cognitive health claim.

In the Food Field:

In October 2009, the European Union listed soy-derived phosphatidylserine powder as a New Food Ingredient (Novel Food). On 12 October 2010, the former Ministry of Health of China (now the Health and Welfare Commission) added phosphatidylserine powder to the list of Novel Food Ingredients (New Resources) (Announcement No. 15 of 2010), which allows it to be used as a Novel Food Ingredient.
