Lecithin is a fatty substance that provides the body with a source of choline or phosphatidylcholine. Choline is an essential nutrient in the B vitamin family and it is incorporated into cell membranes. Lechithin is also a building block for acetylcholine, which is a chemical in the brain that plays a role in memory.
Lecithin (and choline) may help treat a variety of gallbladder and liver disorders. For example, lecithin forms part of bile (a substance that digests fat) and as a result, lecithin supplements may prevent the formation of gallstones. Lecithin keeps the liver functioning properly, which keeps fats from building up in the liver and improves the flow of fat and cholesterol through the liver and gallbladder.
Nature's Harmony Super Lecithin is formulated from a natural source to contain phosphatidylcholine in order to deliver optimum levels of choline to body tissues. Lecithin protects cells from oxidation and makes up a large part of the protective sheath surrounding the brain.
