Lecithin is a substance found in many foods and contains key building blocks that are particularly important for the brain and liver: choline and phospholipids.
Some plants are particularly rich in these, which is why we are able to offer pure lecithin here. Extracted from rapeseed.
Phospholipids are the building blocks of our cell membranes. All our body’s cells are surrounded by a water-impermeable cell membrane – made of phospholipids. Within the cells, there are many more cell membranes, for example around the mitochondria. When we consume phospholipids through our diet, we help our body build them up whilst simultaneously supplying it with the essential element phosphorus.
Choline is a vitamin-like substance that is particularly important for the brain and the liver. Our body can produce choline itself from the amino acid methionine and from the vitamin folic acid. However, it appears that dietary intake is also necessary.
Use pure lecithin to ensure your intake of choline, phosphorus and phospholipids.
Available here as a rapeseed-based liquid – rapeseed is less likely to cause intolerances than the more common soya-based product.
