Seeking Health Optimal PC is a dietary supplement containing a complex of phospholipids obtained from GMO-free sunflower seed oil. Each capsule contains as much as 800 mg of phospholipids such as: phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol. The preparation increases clarity of mind, supports the ability to concentrate and learn, and reduces the feeling of fatigue.

Role of phospholipids in the organism
Phospholipids are organic chemical compounds constituting a basic structural element of cell membranes, which play various roles; for example, they separate the inside of cells from the environment, and participate in the transmission of signals and substances between a cell and the environment.

The largest group of phospholipids found in biological membranes are glycerophospholipds, that is phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, cardiolipin. The phospholipids participate in intercellular signalling and determine the right dynamics of cell membranes. Phospholipids found in the brain are particularly important for the level of intellectual capacity.

Phosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid. The compound occurs naturally in the human organism. Phosphatidylcholine provides choline, thanks to which it can optimise the functioning of the nervous system.

Choline constitutes over 50% of the phospholipids that play a crucial role in the functioning of cell membranes. As a precursor of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter found in synaptic bulbs responsible for transmitting nerve impulses between the neurons of the central nervous system, choline has a beneficial effect on psychophysical capacity. Acetylcholine increases the secretory activity of the adrenal medulla, thanks to which it helps to increase the secretion of catecholamines – dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. Proper choline levels in the nervous system support concentration, time of reaction, the ability to remember, as well as alleviate the symptoms of depression.

Moreover, phosphatidylcholine is beneficial for the lipid profile, because of which it is used, for example, in the case of gall bladder and bile tract disorders.

Phosphatidylethanolamine dominates in the internal layer of the lipid bilayer. It is a very important element forming cell membranes. It is found above all in the brain, the spinal cord, and other nervous tissues. Phosphatidylethanolamine plays an important role in the process of new information assimilation and supports memory.

Phosphatidylinositol is a small percent of cellular phospholipids but it plays an important role in regulating various cell functions, like cell proliferation and their survival. The compound is found mainly in brain tissue, where it constitutes about 10% of all phospholipids.

Phosphatidylinositol participates in cell signalling, lipid signalling, and numerous processes connected with fat metabolism.

To sum up, Seeking Health Optimal PC is a dietary supplement that has a beneficial effect on the efficiency of the nervous system. The preparation is recommended in times of increased physical or intellectual strain in order to boost the ability to concentrate and learn or to improve accuracy and sports results.

Phospholipids are found mainly in products of animal origin, especially meat and eggs, so supplementation with the preparation is recommended above all for vegans and vegetarians. Moreover, as the organism ages, the permeability of choline through the blood-brain barrier decreases, so the preparation will also prove helpful to seniors.
