> How are you going to check Gemini’s math on that?

Gemini used 40% choline by weight for alpha GPC and 18% for citicoline, which seems to check out with other sources.

> I’m leaning towards alpha gpc supplements.

I haven't looked into the studies recently, but there have been some negative findings with alpha GPC supplementation[1]. May be worth a gander.

Eggs are safe as long as you limit yourself to one medium egg per day.

Does a 100% safe and effective source of choline exist? Maybe a combination of eggs and supplements are the way to go?

This stuff goes over my head, but perhaps one can take something to lower TMAO (I see EVOO, allicin, resveratrol, PQQ from a cursory search) to offset choline supplementation. This is assuming TMAO is the cause of increased disease risk and not just a biomarker.
