Lecithin has been shown to help break down cholesterol molecules and prevent the formation of arterial plaque. This benefits the cardiovascular system by reducing LDL cholesterol and blood triglyceride levels. Lecithin has also been shown to support liver function and is currently under research as a possible treatment and preventative measure for liver disease. Lecithin is also a natural source of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine, two important components necessary for proper nerve function and acetylcholine production in the brain. Supplementing with lecithin may also prevent gallstones by reducing the level of free cholesterol found in the blood, which is a leading cause of gallstone formation.

Lecithin Granules Description from BODY FIRST
Lecithin is a naturally occurring compound found in all cells in nature, plant and animal. It plays a major role in almost all biological processes - including nerve transmission, breathing and energy production. The word Lecithin is taken from the Greek Lekithos, which means "egg yolk". A fitting name for this essential nutrient for the egg is considered a symbol of life, strength and fertility. Lecithin is considered a symbol of life, strength and fertility. Lecithin is important for all of these biological functions and more. Our brain is approximately 30% Lecithin. The insulating myelin sheaths that protect the brain, spine and thousands of miles of nerves in your body are almost two-thirds Lecithin. Even the heart has a high concentration of Lecithin. Lecithin is composed of many different components, including Choline, Inositol, Linoleic Acid, Phosphatidylserine, beneficial fatty acids and triglycerides. These valuable constituents of Lecithin are vital for the proper functioning of many metabolic processes. Our Lecithin Granules are derived entirely from soybeans.
