Why Lecithin, every single cell in the body needs it to function is the major reason. And as a one of the body’s most productive “go-getters”, Lecithin plays a substantial role in virtually every biological function known to human existence. This natural source of Choline, Inositol, Linoleic Acid and Phosphatidyl Serine is fundamental in the transportation of nutrients to-and-from other cells – thus making it a key factor in how effectively we metabolize the food in our diet. Perfect for any active lifestyle, our Lecithin Triple Strength offers amazing benefits that can last a lifetime.* As always, Pure and Clean!

These softgels contain 35% phosphatidyl choline, which compromises a major portion of our brain and nervous system. Lecithin is also a source of essential fatty acids, choline and inositol. Lecithin aids in emulsifying fats, enabling them to be dispersed in water.*

In today’s high-tech rapidly changing nutrition marketplace we are constantly inundated by new products, irresistible fads, and nutrients that are impossible to pronounce. A nutrient we tried yesterday has already been forgotten today so as to make room for the promise of something new tomorrow. Hopefully we can resist the temptation to forget some of the nutritional giants that have served as foundations to our health and even our industry. Lecithin is just one such nutritional powerhouse.

Lecithin is composed of a group of phosphorus containing fats or phospholipids the most important being phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylethanolamine. Lecithin can be found in a variety of foods including egg yolks, milk, meats, fish, and legumes. Since our intake of some of these foods has been reduced due to cholesterol and fat concerns we have concomitantly reduced our intake of this important nutrient. Every living cell contains these phospholipids and the functioning of our nervous system is particularly compromised if we are inadequate in lecithin’s key ingredients. Deficiencies are linked to a variety of neurological disorders. Phosphatidylcholine builds nerve cells and substances they communicate with and has been studied for memory. As a lipotropic choline is critical in fat and cholesterol metabolism particularly via the liver. The heart muscle has one of the highest concentrations of any muscle. For these reasons one often sees lecithin included in weight loss, cardiovascular, and liver support formulas.*

Discovered 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.
