Dietary supplements brand EZ Melt, whose proprietary fast-melting tablets dissolve quickly in the mouth without requiring water, has now launched a product featuring the Cognizin brand of citicoline.
The supplement is being promoted for “optimal cognitive function.” Citicoline promotes the production of the phospholipid phosphatidylcholine, which comprises 30% of brain tissue. By acting as a precursor to phosphatidylcholine, citicoline helps support production of vital neurotransmitters and protect brain cells.
Cognizin is an ingredient from Kyowa Hakko USA Inc. (New York City). Thanks to the EZ Melt format, the supplier says, “active ingredients, such as Cognizin, are quickly dissolved before entering the digestive tract, which means nutrients are more readily available for absorption and able to reach the areas of the body where it’s needed most.” It also assists those who have trouble swallowing pills.
The product comes in a strawberry flavor, which each dose containing 250 mg of Cognizin.
