Reply To: Choline

Second question, the science behind limiting egg yolks has been disproven (this article does a good job of explaining it https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/how-many-eggs-should-you-eat).

You don’t need to be concerned about eating too many egg yolks – for most, 3 eggs per day (with yolks) is completely fine and will get you really close to meeting your daily choline goal! The upper limit for choline is 3500 mg so you won’t overdo this. Most supplements contain from 200 – 500 mg of choline. Reminder, I can’t provide individualized guidance here without a formal nutrition assessment.
