Description
What is Lecithin?
Not all fatty substances are bad, and that's certainly the case for lecithin. It plays an important role in making compounds called phospholipids, which make up the basic structure of all our cell membranes. Back in 1846 when French chemist Theodore Gobley discovered it in eggs, no one could have imagined quite how versatile it would become. It's been used in margarine, chocolate, paints and even beauty products due to the fact that it's an emulsifier − in other words, it brings together substances that wouldn't normally mix, such as oil and water. It was later discovered that lecithin is found everywhere in the human body, including in high quantities in the brain and liver. Lecithin contributes to the production of choline, which help us digest, transport and use fats for energy, as well as helping the liver to function normally.*
Why is ours better?
We only use lecithin from soya beans, which is one of the most concentrated and unrefined sources. We also make sure it's non−GMO as we know that many of our customers don't wish to consume nutrients from genetically modified plants. Plus, the full dose of four capsules provides enough choline to have a beneficial effect on fat digestion and liver function.*
*The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 82.5 mg choline.
