In this article, you will read about phosphatidylserine and its role in helping to reduce stress. You'll learn that phosphatidylserine is an anionic phospholipid found in the brain and explore its functions in the central nervous system health.
PS Calm with botanicals and standardized Phosphatidylserine has applications for stress with a level of mild depression. The formula is prescribed for elevated cortisol levels, dysregulated sleep, fatigue and cognitive impairment resulting from the psychological and physiological burden of stress.

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an anionic phospholipid in the eukaryotic membrane and is abundant in the brain. Accumulated studies have revealed that PS is involved in the multiple functions of the brain, such as activation of membrane signaling pathways, neuroinflammation, neurotransmission, and synaptic refinement. Those functions of PS are related to central nervous system (CNS) diseases. (Ma et al., 2022) PS has the highest affinity among acidic lipids to bind serotonin in brain tissues.1
