Choline - what is it, and why is it so important for fertility? | Episode 38

Fertility Friendly Food

Choline... What is it, and why is it so important for fertility?
If you're thinking of starting a family, pregnant or trying to conceive, I'm willing to bet you've heard about the importance of folate (or folic acid) in supporting the future health of your unborn baby. But have you heard of Choline?
This nutrient is arguably just as important, yet its importance is super underestimated...
Today we discuss the risks associated with not meeting your Choline requirements, food sources of Choline, whether you should be supplementing with it, and how it works alongside Folate to protect you and your baby!
