Choline

Mother's Promise Choline is an excellent addition to your prenatal or nursing routine, designed to support your baby's brain health and cognitive development. Groundbreaking research from Cornell University has shown that maternal choline supplementation during pregnancy can improve a baby’s information processing speed in the first year of life and enhance sustained attention in early childhood. Our Choline capsules provide the same dose and form of choline used in these studies, ensuring you’re getting clinically-backed support for these benefits. Additionally, taking choline while nursing has been shown to increase choline content in breast milk, providing even more support for your baby. At Mother’s Promise, we prioritize ingredients that are supported by robust clinical research to give you and your baby the best possible start.

Most prenatal multivitamins do include some Choline - but typically much less than the clinically studied 550 mg per day. For example, many formulas provide only 50–150 mg, which is not enough to reach the full dosage shown in research to support healthy brain development in babies and toddlers. Mother’s Promise Choline provides 275 mg per capsule. This means: If your prenatal contains 100–200 mg of Choline, adding 1 capsule daily usually gets you close to the 550 mg target. If your prenatal contains little to no Choline, you may consider 2 capsules daily to reliably meet the researched dosage. Importantly, Choline is a very safe nutrient, and clinical studies have shown benefits even with intakes above 1,000 mg per day. This gives you peace of mind that adding our supplement - on top of your prenatal - is both safe and beneficial. 👉 In short: unless your prenatal already provides a very high dose (which is rare), taking 1–2 capsules of Mother’s Promise Choline daily is the simplest way to bridge the gap and reach the researched level for optimal results.

Choline is important before, during, and after pregnancy. Starting early helps build nutrient stores so your baby has what they need right from conception, while consistent intake during pregnancy supports brain growth, memory, and long-term cognitive health. After birth, Choline continues to pass through breast milk, supporting your baby’s development into toddlerhood. It’s never too early—or too late—to add Choline for you and your baby’s benefit.

Our Choline is designed to complement your prenatal or postnatal multivitamin routine. Take two capsules once daily, with or without food, alongside a high-quality prenatal or postnatal supplement for comprehensive support during pregnancy or nursing.
