TL;DR Summary

Research shows that individuals with anxiety disorders have about 8% lower levels of choline in their brains, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, which may be linked to the condition.

The findings highlight the importance of nutrition in mental health and the potential for nutritional approaches to aid in managing anxiety.
