Why People Avoid Choline Chloride
Choline chloride might be derived from or processed with corn, making it a potential concern for individuals on a corn-free diet. As a result, those avoiding corn should verify the source of choline chloride in any product to ensure it is not corn-derived. This is particularly important because corn derivatives are commonly used in food manufacturing processes.
