NOW FoodsNon-GMO Lecithin Softgels contain 15% Phosphatidyl Choline NOW Foods Lecithin's Phosphatidyl comprises a major portion of our brain and nervous system. NOW Foods Lecithin is also a source of essential fatty acids, Choline and Inositol. NOW Foods Lecithin aids in emulsifying fats, enabling them to be dispersed in water.
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 weightloss, cardiovascular, and liver support formulas.
