The evidence in words
How much to take
300–600 mg, often pre-workout or split for cognition.
Timing & separation
There are no strict timing conflicts on record for Alpha-GPC; consistency matters more than the exact hour for most goals.
Why the dose is what it is
It raises choline availability for acetylcholine and appears to support growth-hormone and power responses acutely, the basis for its pre-workout use.
Bottom line
More interesting for power output than for everyday cognition. 300–600 mg; keep an eye on the unresolved cardiovascular signal if using chronically.
How it is used
As the entry records it, from the studies it summarises. Not a recommendation for you — doses that suit a trial population may not suit you.
