What it does:

Increases brain levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine that is essential for memory and learning. Acetylcholine requires Vitamin B1 (thiamine), and Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) for synthesis. Vitamin C also induces the release of acetylcholine from synaptic vesicles on neurons. Which means Vitamin C (included) is required for neuronal signaling transmission.
