Product Details

Optimal Choline add-on to help you meet your daily needs.

95%+ of mothers are not meeting their Choline needs. Choline supports baby’s neural tube formation and cognitive development, as well as mother's healthy metabolism and mood, so getting enough is key*.

The RDA is 450mg/550mg while pregnant/nursing, though research suggests that upwards of 900mg in pregnancy supports optimal perinatal and infant health outcomes. Most prenatal vitamins contain 1/10th or less of the RDA, as Choline is a bulky nutrient.

Our Choline add-on is dosed at 250mg of Choline L(+) Bitartrate VitaCholine™ per capsule to help you reach optimal levels, on top of the highly supportive dosages in our Prenatal Multi Powder/Capsules (400mg), Prenatal Multi Essentials (150mg) and Prenatal Omega-3+ (100mg).

Learn More

Your Choline supplement needs may vary by day depending on what you eat and what other supplements you take. However, the tolerable upper limit for Choline is set to 3,500mg per day, so taking additional Choline is quite safe, and may further benefit the health of you and your baby*.

While some mamas obtain more Choline through dietary sources like eggs and liver, many can benefit from additional supplementation. Reference our dosage chart to find your optimal dosage based on your dietary and supplementation intake.

How to Use

Take one capsule up to four times daily with food. For optimal absorption, we suggest taking no more than 500mg of Choline in one serving across all of your products. Store fully sealed at room temperature.

    Great product!

    I love that this is an added choline vitamin so I can be sure I get enough for baby even when I don’t eat foods with choline in it. I can tailor each day to my diet that day.

    Awesome product!

    I’ve been taking this Choline throughout my pregnancy, and I feel like it’s made a big difference in helping me with my pregnancy! It also makes me feel good to know I’m providing my baby with extra neural and developmental support!

    Love!

    So easy to add to my prenatal routine. I had no idea how important Choline was until I heard a Julie talk about it in a podcast. Definitely recommend!

    The supplement I have been missing!

    I had never taken choline as its own supplement before, but I feel like it is the key to how good I am feeling this pregnancy! I would highly recommend in conjunction with prenatal vitamins!

    Easy to digest

    I've been taking choline x2 daily for 18 months and it's been great! Flavorless and very easy to digest while pregnant and postpartum.

Questions? We have answers.

Thoughtful inquiry is needed.

What makes Needed’s Choline different from others?

We use the optimal nutrient forms of Choline L(+) Bitartrate VitaCholine™. Plus, our Choline comes in 250mg capsules for easy dosage tailoring.

Why do you offer Choline separately from your Prenatal Multi?

95%+ of mothers are not meeting their Choline needs. The RDA or daily minimum is 450mg/550mg while pregnant/nursing, and research suggests that consuming upwards of 900mg in pregnancy supports optimal perinatal and infant health outcomes.* Choline is not found abundantly in many foods, so many mothers can benefit from a supplement. For optimal absorption, we suggest taking no more than 500mg of Choline in one serving (at one time) across all of your products. Spreading supplementation out throughout the day can improve absorption.

How do I know how much Choline I need?

Start by scrolling up and reviewing our dosage chart and compare it with your daily intake through food and supplements. For optimal absorption, we suggest taking no more than 500mg of Choline in one serving (at one time) across all of your products. Spreading supplementation out throughout the day can improve absorption.

Is your Choline vegan, allergen free, and Non-GMO?

Our Choline is vegan and non-GMO. Free of 9 major allergens, gluten, and unwanted fillers.
