Choline can be found in meats, fish, nuts, beans, vegetables, and eggs. It plays a central role in many physiological pathways including neurotransmitter synthesis, cell membrane signaling, bile and lipid transports and methyl group metabolism. A reduction in plasma choline associated with strenuous exercise such as triathlons and marathon running have been reported.

Vitamin C is a water soluble antioxidant that aids in the reduction of exercise induced free radical production. It is also necessary for collagen production and may influence muscle growth and repair. Adding a gelatin and Vitamin C supplement to an intermittent exercise protocol may improve collagen synthesis and could even play a beneficial role in injury prevention.
