Lecithin (1200 mg)

Lecithin – Rich Source of EFA’s and Other NutrientsDiscovered in 1850, Lecithin is a naturally occurring fatty substance found in foods like soybeans, whole grains and egg yolks. In the body, lecithin, a type of lipid needed in every living cell, is broken down into Choline, phosphate, glycerol and fatty acids. Choline levels may be low in many individuals, particularly as the American diet includes fewer dairy products, meats and eggs.

Researchers believe Choline is the key element in Lecithin that aids beneficially in cholesterol reduction and memory. Choline is essential for cardiovascular health, brain function and cellular membrane composition and repair. Glycerol is converted into glucose by the liver and provides energy for cellular metabolism.

Essential fatty acids are found in every cell in the body and are necessary for proper growth and functioning of cells, muscles, nerves and organs. These fatty acids produce prostaglandins which are key to many functions in the body.

This rich source of essential fatty acids is very important because it helps the body utilize Vitamins A, B, E and K. Also, it naturally disperses fat and cholesterol into smaller particles, which helps keep cholesterol from collecting on the arterial walls and keeps food moving through the body efficiently. This helps protect against arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Lecithin aids in the absorption of thiamine by the liver and Vitamin A by the intestine.
