- Phosphatidyl Choline
NOW® Sunflower Lecithin has phosphatidyl choline, the most abundant phospholipid in the cell membrane, where it plays a key role in cellular signaling and synaptic function. NOW® Sunflower Lecithin also naturally abounds in phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, and essential fatty acids. Lecithin in the diet aids in emulsifying fats, enabling them to be dispersed in water; and as a choline-containing phospholipid, its choline is easily absorbed and utilized by the body. NOW® Sunflower Lecithin Softgels are Non-GMO and Soy-Free
What is lecithin and what effects does it have?
Lecithin, or phosphatidylcholine, is one of the phospholipids that are the main components of cell membranes.
Lecithin is found in all body cells. It is mainly found in the liver, brain, heart, lungs and muscles.
The human body can produce lecithin itself from the choline ingested through food. Lecithin-rich sources are both animal and vegetable products such as eggs, meat, whole grain products and vegetables.
If there is a lecithin deficiency, taking Now Foods Sunflower Lecithin as a dietary supplement can make sense.
What is Now Foods Sunflower Lecithin?
Now Foods Sunflower Lecithin is made from sunflower lecithin derived from non-GMO sunflower seeds. Now Sunflower lecithin soft capsules offer a suitable alternative to other lecithin preparations, which are often made from soy and are therefore not well tolerated by many people.
