What Does a Choline Bitartrate Supplement Add at 31 mg?
A choline bitartrate supplement supplies choline in a salt form. The Reviralis Complete label prints choline 31 mg for two capsules, about 6% of the 550 mg adequate intake for men and 7% of the 425 mg for women. The upper limit is 3,500 mg a day, so 31 mg is a small line.

How much choline do adults need each day?
The adequate intake is 550 mg for men and 425 mg for women. The upper limit is 3,500 mg (NIH ODS, Choline).
An adequate intake is the amount thought enough for most people when no firm RDA exists. The Reviralis line reads Choline (as Choline Bitartrate) 31 mg, 6% of the Daily Value.
| Measure | Amount | 31 mg as a share |
|---|---|---|
| Adequate intake, men | 550 mg | 5.6% |
| Adequate intake, women | 425 mg | 7.3% |
| Upper limit | 3,500 mg | 0.9% |
Where does choline come from in food?
Mostly from eggs, meat, fish and some beans and vegetables. Food does most of the work for choline, and a small capsule line adds only a little.
Picture two scrambled eggs at breakfast. They supply more choline than the 31 mg on the label by a wide margin. That is not a reason to skip the label's math, only a way to see its size. Someone who eats few animal foods may fall short on choline, and that is a question for a dietitian, not a capsule.
The label does not claim that its 31 mg meets any need, and no source we read tested Reviralis itself.
Is choline the same as DMAE in the Reviralis blend?
No. They are different compounds that sound alike. Choline is a listed nutrient with its own intake figure. DMAE bitartrate is a blend member for which a reference article finds no clinical studies supporting memory or mood claims (EBSCO Research Starters, DMAE).
The label lists choline with the 22 printed lines and DMAE bitartrate first in the 661 mg blend, where it holds at least 36.7 mg by the label-order math. Both use bitartrate as a salt, which is the source of the shared word. Read more in the DMAE post.
- Choline: printed, 31 mg, a named intake figure exists.
- DMAE bitartrate: inside the blend, no single amount printed.
- Neither is a treatment for any condition.

See packsWhat should you ask about choline before adding more?
Ask: "Where does my choline come from, and is it worth adding more?" Keep taking prescribed medicine, including any antiviral, unless your prescriber says otherwise. The Reviralis label asks pregnant or nursing women, and anyone with a condition or a prescription, to check with a provider first.
The full list is on the supplement facts page. The blend math is on the proprietary blend page, and the B vitamin group is covered in B vitamins and choline.
FAQ01
Choline questions
How much choline is in Reviralis Complete?
The label prints choline 31 mg for a serving of two capsules, listed as choline bitartrate. That is about 6% of the Daily Value, or roughly 6 to 7% of the adequate intake for adults. It is separate from the DMAE bitartrate in the blend.
Is 31 mg of choline enough?
It covers a small share of what adults are advised to get, which is 425 mg for women and 550 mg for men. Food supplies most choline, mainly eggs, meat and fish. A dietitian or clinician can say whether you fall short.
What is the upper limit for choline?
The adult upper limit is 3,500 mg a day from food and supplements together. The Reviralis amount of 31 mg is under 1% of that. Large supplement doses are the concern, not the amount on this label.
What is the difference between choline and DMAE?
They are different compounds. Choline is an essential nutrient with set intake figures. DMAE is an ingredient for which a reference article finds no clinical studies supporting memory or mood claims. On this label, DMAE sits in the blend.
