L-α-Glycerylphosphorylcholine (L-alpha-GPC, commonly referred to as L-α-GPC or GPC) is a naturally occurring phospholipid compound. It is an essential component of human cell membranes and is widely distributed in tissues such as the brain and liver, with particularly high concentrations in the brain. It can also be obtained from dietary sources including egg yolk, milk, and soybeans.
