I have suspected for several months but now am certain, that when I take PS
capsule, my sciatica gets worse. I took one last night after my sciatica had
been doing well, and today it's got sharp tingles and stinging all the way into
the foot. I wonder if it's doing anything good by causing it to hurt more, or
just doing harm?
This is from Life Extension Foundation (lef.org):
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid that is found in all cells, but
is most highly concentrated in the walls (membranes) of brain cells,
making up about 70% of its nerve tissue mass. There it aids in the
storage, release and activity of many vital neurotransmitters and their
receptors. Phosphatidylserine also aids in cell-to-cell communication.
Phosphatidylserine is involved in the upkeep and restoration of
nerve cell membranes. Among its list of functions, phosphatidylserine
stimulates the release of dopamine (a mood regulator that also control
physical sensations, and movement), increases the production of
acetylcholine (necessary for learning and memory), enhances brain glucose
metabolism (the fuel used for brain activity), reduces cortisol levels (a
stress hormone), and boosts the activity of nerve growth factor (NGF),
which oversees the health of cholinergic neurons.
Research has shown that dietary supplementation with
phosphatidylserine can slow and even reverse the decline of learning,
mood, memory, concentration, word recall related to dementia or
age-related cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly subjects.[1]
