Creatine and Phosphatidylserine both come up in the same conversations. Creatine: Creatine is a nitrogen-containing organic acid that occurs naturally in vertebrates, where it helps recycle the cellular energy carrier adenosine triphosphate (ATP), chiefly in muscle and brain. Phosphatidylserine: Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid that is a normal building block of cell membranes, where it is concentrated on the inner surface and is especially abundant in the membranes of nerve cells.
Creatine is a nitrogen-containing organic acid that occurs naturally in vertebrates, where it helps recycle the cellular energy carrier adenosine triphosphate (ATP), chiefly in muscle and brain. The body makes it in the liver, kidneys, and pancreas from the amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine, and it is also obtained from animal foods such as meat and fish. First isolated from meat by the French chemist Michel Eugene Chevreul in 1832, creatine is today one of the most widely studied and used dietary supplements, valued mainly for improving strength and high-intensity exercise performance.
Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid that is a normal building block of cell membranes, where it is concentrated on the inner surface and is especially abundant in the membranes of nerve cells. It takes part in cell signaling and blood clotting, and its externalization onto the cell surface serves as the principal signal that flags dying cells for removal, a signal that some tumors and pathogens exploit to evade immune clearance. As a dietary supplement, usually derived from soy or sunflower, it is marketed chiefly for memory and age-related cognitive decline and has been reported to blunt the cortisol response to stress, although the supporting evidence for cognitive benefit is regarded as limited.
