NOW Sunflower Lecithin Pure Powder 454g
Lecithin is naturally occurring nutrient found in many foods including sunflowers, soy beans and egg yolks. Its primary role is to emulsify fats and breakdown cholesterol, helping maintain healthy cholesterol levels. NOW® Sunflower Lecithin Powder has Phosphatidyl Choline, the most abundant phospholipid in the cell membrane. It also naturally abounds in Phosphatidyl Inositol, Phosphatidyl Ethanolamine, and essential fatty acids. Lecithin aids in emulsifying fats, enabling them to be dispersed in water.
As lecithin helps breakdown fats and cholesterol, this keeps these substances moving rather than accumulating on artery walls. The main ingredient, lipoproteins are mainly responsible for this action. It may help treat liver damage and protect against toxins. Phosphatidy choline supports the liver, particularly for people who have non-alcoholic fatty disease. Research has shown support for brain disorders such as dementia, Alzheimer’s and depression. Choline increases the production of acetylcholine in the brain and transmits nerve impulses. Lecithin also helps support nervous system, heart and kidneys.
