Swanson L-Serine

If you've been hearing about L-serine, you're in good company! This trending non-essential amino acid is making headlines for its potential to support cognition as a part of healthy aging. We've got the scoop on our blog: Could L-Serine be a Brain-Health Game Changer? L-serine is important to a variety of structures and functions within your body. Cell proliferation, nervous system functions and healthy brain function all require adequate intake of L-serine. As a neurotrophic factor, metabolism of L-serine produces D-serine and phosphatidylserine which your body needs for neuronal development and neurotransmitter health. While the body can naturally synthesize some of the L-serine needed for wellness, supplementation provides a targeted means of boosting this process and its benefits. The benefits even extend beyond brain health, with new research indicating that L-serine metabolism can also contribute to improved overall immune function as well as helping maintain healthy glucose levels. High-purity Swanson AjiPure(R) L-Serine is produced through a fermentation process by the amino experts at Japan's Ajinomoto, Amino Science LLC, the world leader in pharmaceutical-grade amino acids.
