Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid your brain uses to keep cell membranes flexible and signals flowing smoothly. Think of it as part of the “insulation and wiring” that helps neurons talk to each other. People use PS to sharpen attention, support memory as they age, and to buffer the body’s stress response.

• Improve attention and focus (especially in ADHD)
• Support memory in older adults with memory complaints
• Help the body manage stress and the cortisol response

Evidence

Lecithin is a mix of phospholipids—especially phosphatidylcholine—that form the “skin” of your cells and the slippery shield of your gut’s mucus. Think of it as replacement tiles for worn membranes: certain formulations can reinforce the intestinal barrier and may support stressed livers as they process fats. People reach for it to soothe ulcerative colitis flares and to nudge liver enzymes and liver fat in a healthier direction.

• Support liver health in fatty liver (NAFLD)
• Help manage ulcerative colitis alongside standard care
• Support digestive comfort by strengthening the gut’s mucus barrier
