If you're after sharper focus and memory, this delivers 250mg of **citicoline** per capsule — the entry point of the 250–500mg range studied for cognition. Citicoline (CDP-choline) is one of the better-absorbed choline forms for reaching the brain, where it supports acetylcholine and helps sustain attention.

The thing to know is the dose. Most focus and attention trials use 500mg a day, so one capsule gives you half of that. The label's 1–2 times daily directions cover the gap — take two and you hit the full studied 500mg, where the clearest cognitive benefits show up. At a single capsule you're getting real but partial support, which makes this a flexible way to start low and scale up.
