Alpha GPC by NutraBio lists 3 ingredients, 3 with an amount per serving of 1 vegetable capsule, such as 600 mg of alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine, powder. Its current label entered the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database on April 23, 2024.
What is in Alpha GPC?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 vegetable capsule. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha-Glycerylphosphorylcholine, Powder | 600 mg | Higher than 85% of 656 products listing alpha-GPC (median 200 mg). | |
| L-Alpha-Glycerylphosphorylcholine | 300 mg | ||
| Calcium Phosphate | 300 mg | 23%* | The label names the compound (Calcium Phosphate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the calcium it holds, so it is not placed among other products. |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.
