Choline and Healthy Liver Fat Metabolism

Choline is an essential nutrient, and the liver uses it to package fat and move that fat out. When that pathway is under-supported, fat can accumulate instead.

What the review covered

Corbin and Zeisel reviewed choline metabolism and how it relates to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and its progression. The paper explains, at a biochemical level, why adequate choline is important for normal liver fat metabolism.

Why it matters for Livana

Livana includes choline (as choline citrate) to support the process that packages fat and carries it out of the liver.
