What health agencies say

An opinion says what the agency recommends; it is not a rule binding on the product.

Because of a lack of French consumption data, the experts do not take a position on including choline in the draft list. They consider that a maximum dose of 1 g per day is not sufficiently protective, at least for children aged 1 to 8, whose cited safe upper limit is already 1 g of choline per day.
