Event Overview:

DHA and choline are both well known for their role in promoting brain health throughout the entire lifespan, but emerging research suggests that they are even more powerful together. A new study out of Cornell University this past May has demonstrated that supplementing with VitaCholine during pregnancy improves pregnant women’s DHA status significantly better than supplementing with DHA alone.
