1. New Choline Study: Increase Intakes
For the period of Pregnancy

A latest research has been posted this
week with regards to the would-be
health gains an increased Choline
intake throughout pregnancy might
have on the baby´s development.

The study published in the FASEB journal, suggested that
a intake of more than normal levels of dietary choline
(found in meat, wheatgerm and eggs) for the period of
pregnancy could lesser infant´s susceptability to mental
health disturbances as well as chronic illnesses such as
Hypertension later in life.

As mentioned in one of my earlier posts, dietary choline can
affect epigenetic markers, as choline donates methyl groups
to foetal DNA leading to hypermethylation. This specific
process of hypermethylation leads to the switching off of
genes that have a effect on long-term health.

Dr. Pressman from the University of Rochester Medical Centre USA
notes that what was of particluar interest was the finding that the
affected epigenetic markers were those that manage hypothalamic-
Pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis) which controls all hormone
metabolism in the body which includes the production of the hormone
cortisol. High cortisol levels are usually connected with stress which
can result to metabolic issues such as insulin resistance.

The research team recommend that an increased dietary
Choline consumption for the period of pregnancy may
possibly lead to a much more stable HPA axis ending up in
decreased levels of cortisol in the fetus.

The US recommended dietary intake for choline is around 425mg/d
(Fischer et al 2007), in this particular research the consumption of
the third trimester females was 930mg/d. Dr Steven Zeisel a leader
in the field of Nutrigenomics and Choline has posted lots studies on
SNP´s that change choline requirements. If you are interested in
what this amounts to in a typical day.

I could have enjoyed to notice what the research subjects diets
seemed like per day, discovering what I felt like in my third
trimester. When this research contributes to the information in
the field of Choline and genetic expression, we could
nonetheless need to study more, before the science is translated
into clinical practice for nutritionists and dietitians.

Whole eggs, irrespective of whether functional (with added
Vitamin D or Omega-3) or traditional still stay one of the
richest sources of choline, with the extra benefits of being
vitamin and mineral -rich. Current changes to heart health
advice signifies that there is no restriction in terms of egg
consumption for any patient group in addition to those with
non-familial high cholesterol levels.

In particular, it emphasizes the fact that with the
attractiveness of egg-white only shakes and meals, consumers
ought to severely consider the long-term impact of doing
away with this absolute low-priced nutrient rich food as the
scientific facts is growing.
