Choline helps maintain healthy, well functioning cell membrane, which is the thin layer surrounding all cells.
Choline transports fats within the body and helps prevent the accumulation of fat in the liver.
Choline is a component of acetylcholine, a nerve chemical needed for normal nerve and brain function, including memory and reaction time.
No clear deficiency symptoms have been identified in humans. In animals, deficiency results in fat accumulation in the liver, liver and kidney problems, infertility, slowed growth in offspring, poor bone formation, memory loss, and behavior changes.
