← All ingredients
Choline
An essential nutrient for the brain, liver, and cell membranes. It's especially important in pregnancy, and many prenatals contain little.
Supplements can interact with medications and aren't right for everyone, especially during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or with a chronic condition. Ask your provider before you start.
Studied for
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding (baby's brain and spinal cord)
- Liver health
- Memory and focus
- Low intake from a plant-based or egg-free diet
Found naturally in
- Egg yolks
- Beef liver
- Beef, chicken, and fish
- Soybeans
- Broccoli and Brussels sprouts
Label red flags
- Prenatals that list choline but provide only a small amount
- Labels that list the compound weight instead of the choline it provides
Check with a provider
- Pregnancy. Choline matters, so ask which form and how much is right for you.
- Trimethylaminuria (a condition that causes a fishy body odor)
- A fishy body odor, sweating, or stomach upset can be signs of too much
Supplements that contain it
3 products in Dr. Lesher's dispensary list choline on the label.
Check with your provider before taking any of these, especially if you're pregnant or take medications.
