Product Overview
Some people may ask, “What is lecithin?” Well, it is what is known as a phospholipid, and one of its primary active components is choline a B-Vitamin. Choline is what is known as a lipotropic, and the nutrients that fall into this category are essential for proper liver function and fat utilization. So in short, a choline deficiency will promote fat accumulation in the liver. Choline deficiencies in humans can produce liver abnormalities in just a few weeks, and prolonged deficiency of choline can produce severe liver damage. Lecithin itself is also a very important component of VLDL (very low density lipoproteins) that helps to transport fats around the body from the liver. It can be found native in a number of different foods such as eggs, dairy products, and meats, but the primary source that is used today comes from soybeans.
There are literally hundreds of studies that validate the use of this product. Research shows that lecithin has health benefits that include maintenance of a healthy liver, nervous system, heart and circulatory health. It increases physical performance, and is useful during pregnancy and child development. And even though it would be classified as a fat, lecithin itself contains no cholesterol!
Lecithin can be found and taken in several forms, it can be offered as a liquid that is often encapsulated and in granules, which can be mixed with foods and eaten. It really has virtually no taste. Taking lecithin supplements and or choline products over the long term has been shown to be very beneficial in helping to maintain long-term memory and overall health. We have to be conscious of what ours ‘lives’ have in store for us down the road, isn’t it best to prepare now for tomorrow! Take your lecithin every day!
Known Functions: Lecithin is an essential fatty substance that also protects cell membranes from hardening. High concentrations of lecithin are found in the brain and prostate gland. Lecithin is largely composed of choline, plus linoleic acid and inositol. It acts as an emulsifying agent, enabling fats and other lipids to be dispersed in water. Phosphatidyl choline (a different kind of lecithin) is a powerful fat-emulsifying compound present in all cells. It solubilizes fats and cholesterol in the bloodstream; it solubilizes dietary fats in the intestinal mucosa, and maintains the structural integrity of cell membranes. Phospholipids are essential components of lipoproteins and membranes. Lecithin is also a source of choline, a B vitamin with powerful lipotropic activity. Choline is utilized by virtually every cell for synthesis of various phospholipids, proteins, and the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. Research has shown that administration of choline or lecithin can raise plasma and brain choline and acetylcholine levels. There is evidence that oral choline and lecithin can help alleviate neurological motor disturbances, and restore cognition and memory. Symptoms of tardive dyskinesia and Alzheimer’s disease have been ameliorated in some patients by administration of choline, lecithin or phosphatidylcholine.
