stephendsl (verified owner) –
I take this in combination with other products for early-onset Parkinson’s disease – it drastically improved my motor functions and mental clarity, so much so that when I stopped taking it for a while, I could immediately feel the lack of not being on it.
mattrudlles (verified owner) –
I use this for various family members due to the difficulty of meeting choline RDAs. The price/dosage is the best I can find in South Africa, and the purity certifications leave me with peace of mind.
