It's essential for nerve signaling and brain function, plays a role in liver function and fat metabolism, and is important for fetal development during pregnancy.
This entry doesn't have an established RDA on file. Choline needs vary by life stage, and pregnant and nursing women generally need more, so it's worth discussing your specific needs with a provider.
There's a real connection here. Choline supports the formation of a key neurotransmitter involved in memory and brain function, which is why it's often discussed alongside cognitive health.
It supports fetal development directly, playing a role similar in spirit to folate's role in early nervous system formation, which is why it's increasingly discussed as a pregnancy nutrient worth paying attention to.
