A neurotransmitter released by stimulation of the Vagus nerve, which alters heart muscle contractions, it induces movement of other muscels as well. Acetylcholine induces movement by the locomotion of an impulse across a nerve that causes it to release neurotransmitter molecules onto the surface of the next cell. This causes a stimulation of that next cell. After this process has been completed, the ACETYLCHOLINE is then broken into ACETATE and CHOLINE.
These travel back to the first cell to be recycled ino acetylcholine and start the process over again. ACETYLCHOLINE is critical for an adequately functioning memory.
Major research is now looking for treatments for memory deficits, like those found in ALZHEIMERS. Any mental health issue that involves memory or lack thereof, directlly or indirectly relates to ACETYCHOLINE.
CLINICAL RESEARCH into the supplemnt ACETYL- L- CARNITINE, IMPROVES ASPECTS OF COGNITION FUNCTION AND MEMORY. RESEARCHERS have found this nutrient is a
PRECURSOR to the production of not only the Neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE, but has a role in the synthesis of Dopamine.
