Choline in Gelagen: What 0.04 mg Really Is
Gelagen's list shows choline at 0.04 mg. The Daily Value is 550 mg, so that is under 0.01 percent, a trace that cannot meet any need. It may be a typing slip for 40 mg, so check your jar. Eggs, meat and fish supply real choline, and a gummy of this size does not.

What does choline do?
It helps build cell membranes, supports liver function and is used to make a neurotransmitter. NIH sets an adequate intake of 425 mg for women and 550 mg for men, and says many people eat less than that (NIH ODS, Choline).
What does 0.04 mg mean?
It is 40 micrograms. Against 550 mg that is about 0.007 percent, thousands of times short of a day's need. Even at 40 mg it would be 7 percent. We treat the figure as printed in our material and ask you to confirm the number on your own jar.
Why would a maker list a trace?
A named ingredient can look good on a list. A trace adds a line without a meaningful dose, which is why we show both the raw number and the percentage. This is not an accusation. It is the reason to read amounts and not only names.

See packsWhere does real choline come from?
Two eggs give about 300 mg, beef liver more, and chicken, fish and soybeans moderate amounts. If you worry about intake, food is the practical route, and a clinician can advise in pregnancy. The choline and inositol page shows this in a table.
