Is Your Body Starved for Choline? The Overlooked Key to Energy, Brain Health & Detox


Listen Later

Choline may not be a nutrient you think about every day — but it's one of the most powerful players in your body's energy production, brain performance, and detoxification system.

In this episode, we break down why choline is like a "master ingredient" in your body's recipe book. It's used to create two vital compounds:

  • Phosphatidylcholine (PC) — the special fat that makes up your cell walls and keeps them strong, flexible, and able to communicate.

  • Acetylcholine — a neurotransmitter that powers your memory, focus, muscle control, and vagus nerve function.

You'll learn how chronic illness, mold exposure, and toxin load can quickly deplete your choline stores, forcing your body to choose between repairing cell membranes or keeping your vagus nerve running at full capacity. That imbalance can lead to constipation, bloating, brain fog, hormone recirculation, and sluggish recovery.

We'll also cover why certain genetic variations (like PEMT and MTHFR) make you more vulnerable — and how testing, targeted nutrition, and the right supplements can help rebuild these pathways so your energy, digestion, and cognition can come back online.

If you've been feeling like you're running at half-speed, this episode will help you understand why — and what you can do to turn it around.
