Hi again!
Is the preposition "at" needed in this sentence?
"The chemicals were eating away at his brain"
It is correct this way?

The second one is what a native speaker would use. To me, adding the "at" doesn't affect anything, it sounds still fine to me. The 1st one sounds a bit more "formal" almost.
