so today we’re going to talk about why eggs are especially important for a

postmenopausal female eggs and I’m talking about the yolks are loaded with

choline and choline is a vitamin to help strip fat off the liver it actually can

prevent a fatty liver if you’re deficient in choline you can be more

susceptible to getting a fatty liver it also helps dissolve lipids or fats

so it supports bile salts which also break down fats so for example if you’re

on the ketogenic diet and you have a difficulty in digesting fats and you’re

taking purified bile salts for the gallbladder and you find that there’s

something missing choline is missing a choline deficiency can also cause

constipation and even affect a memory because choline is kind of like a

building block for acetylcholine which is involved in nerve physiology why is

choline good postmenopausal versus pre menopausal well because women that are

postmenopausal have lesser amounts of estrogen

now even though their estrogen dominant because their progesterone really drops

way down and it gives them a ratio of too much estrogen but it’s compared to

progesterone but if we look at the total amount of estrogen postmenopausal it’s

gonna be a lot lower and estrogen protects against the loss of choline

some women will take estrogen after they’re postmenopausal the problem with

that it has some complications like increasing your risk of cancer

increasing your risk of stroke things like that

choline is a really good supplement for women that are postmenopausal if they

have a difficulty in digesting fat and also just if they start to develop fat

in the liver this can actually help reverse it having a fatty liver also

sets you up for getting cirrhosis choline can kind of stop that whole

process from occurring you need about four hundred twenty-five milligrams a

day and realize that your body does make some choline but not nearly enough you

can get choline from egg yolks and organ meats and other foods which I’ll put a
