Health Benefits of Soy Lecithin Supplements

Lecithin is a phospholipid composed of glycerol, two fatty acids (inositol and choline) and phosphoric acid. Phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl serine are two of the most important phospholipids in the body. Lecithin is a component of every living cell. The highest concentration is in the brain, where it makes up to 30% of brain tissue. The heart, liver and kidneys are also high in lecithin.

SOY LECITHIN BENEFITS

Lecithin is an important nutrient for every tissue in the body. It plays an especially important part in the maintenance of healthy brain, nervous system, liver, heart and kidney tissues.

Lecithin supplementation may be useful in the treatment of high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, fatty liver, fatty deposits in eyes, skin or other areas, nervous system dysfunction, poor memory, brain or nervous system tissue damage, poor motor function, Alzheimer’s, dry, thin, aging skin, poor fat soluble vitamin assimilation, and skin disorders such as eczema, acne and psoriasis.

Research and clinical trials have shown lecithin supplementation to be helpful for improving immunity, sexual function and male fertility, weight distribution, nervous debility or exhaustion, and lowering the requirements of insulin in diabetics.

Recent research has focused on phosphatidylserine as an important brain nutrient to counteract the age-related decline in cognitive abilities. Phosphatidylserine can help to improve memory and thinking processes. In Double-blind studies with adults suffering from measurable decline in mental functioning, improvements were shown in name-face recognition, maintaining concentration, learning and remembering information and recalling locations of misplaced items.
