2Prevent Heart Disease
A higher intake of choline supplements can help lower the risk of heart disease. In general, choline and folate work together to convert a form of an amino acid called homocysteine into methionine. As a result, a deficiency of either substance would lead to a buildup of homocysteine in the blood. This effect is associated with a higher risk of strokes and cardiovascular issues. Nevertheless, this does not mean that consuming sufficient choline can help you stay away from these health problems because there are many other causes and risk factors, especially in your lifestyle.
