Taking due to a family history of Alzheimer's. After taking a full dose for several weeks, I sometimes begin to experience an occasional headache, which appears to be a common side effect. I then either take a half-dose for a few days or skip taking the supplement for a day or two before resuming.

Started taking the GPC liquid two weeks before a surgery to reduce swelling and pain when the time comes and it has made me very nauseous and sick to my stomach. Twice this week I’ve woken up in the middle of the night with awful stomach pain and one of the times I actually threw up. It’s easy to use and I’m sure it’s effective for reducing swelling after surgery but the side effects were enough for me to stop taking it.

I am not consistent with supplements. Therefore, I have had periods on GPC and off of it. For this reason, I have observed that my improved focus, clarity, memory, and productivity are definitely a direct result of taking A-GPC. The effect takes a few days to kick in and lasts a while after being discontinued. It makes sense that it only works in those whose acetylcholine levels were low and not in young people whose acetylcholine levels are still optimal. Take it with food to protect your stomach. 300mg/daily is enough for me so far. My patients also report positive results.Read More Read Less

I could feel the difference after few days. Felt overall better physically and my focus and ability to study has increased. Sometimes I felt a bit of heartburn when took it on empty stomach. When taken with breakfast this issue disappeared. Worst it is after stop taking it. I always did 3 months cycles with month off. The low mood, nearly depressed, lasted for weeks. Had some problems with focusing and dizziness until my brain chemistry adjusted to lower intake of it.

I heard taking Alpha GPC helps with cognition and physical balance issues in Multiple Sclerosis patients. It worked for me, at least. Improved my memory and physical problems 100 times over. A miracle for me. I use the NOW brand, 300 mg first thing AM.

This helps me to think more deeply and more quickly at work. Dosing is all over the board depending on how an individual tolerates this supplement, ranging from mild headaches with one 300 mg dose to "no effect" at 600mg per day.

I've been using this abstract to treat virtually intractable "brain overloads," which shut down my ability to work. This problem resulted from a moderate traumatic brain injury suffered 12 years ago. I began taking 600mg daily, about 6 weeks ago -- with frankly low expectations -- and improved quickly and clearly. I can work for hours at a time for the first time since my injury.
