Choline chloride

Choline chloride

Choline is important as a precursor of acetylcholine, as a methyl donor in various metabolic processes, and in lipid metabolism. It is needed for good nerve conduction throughout the CNS. Choline is also needed for gallbladder regulation, liver function and lecithin formation. It also aids in fat and cholesterol metabolism and prevents excessive fat build up in the liver. Choline has been used to mitigate the effects of Parkinsonism and tardive dyskinesia.
