Phosphatidylserine is probably something you have never heard of but plays an important part in many vital functions within the body\u2019s tissues and organs. One of its key roles is being the building block for the billions of cells in your brain.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A little technical speak now but just so you aware what Phosphatidylserine (PS) is and what it does in our bodies. Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid which is classed as lipids which are a major component of all cell membranes in the body. It covers and protects the cells vital for the proper functioning of nerve cells within the brain, helping to transmit messages between them. Meaning it plays an important role in keeping your mind and memory sharp.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Phosphatidylserine contains both amino acids and fatty acids. The omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA work with it to provide the building blocks for healthy cell membranes.

Phosphatidylserine is critical to the maintenance of all cellular function, especially in the brain.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
