What is lecithin and what effect does it have?
Lecithins, or phosphatidylcholine, belong to the phospholipids, which are the main components of cell membranes[1].
Lecithin is found in all body cells. It is mainly found in the liver, brain, heart, lungs and muscles. [ 2]
The human body can produce lecithin itself from the choline ingested in food. Sources rich in lecithin include both animal and plant products, such as eggs, meat, whole grain products and vegetables.
If there is a lecithin deficiency, the intake of Now Foods Sunflower Lecithin as a dietary supplement can be useful.
