Facts About Lecithin provides information and resources to learn the benefits, food sources, deficiency-toxicity symptoms, and supplement recommendations.

Facts About Lecithin

Benefits And Uses For Lecithin:

Lecithin is a mixture of essential fats and nutrients present in every living cell.  Lecithin breaks down and transports fats, cleans, lubricates and rebuilds cells.  It reduces cholesterol, helps prevent liver and artery degeneration, lowers blood pressure, aids the immune system, helps the body use Vitamin A and Vitamin D., and aids the nervous system.  If you want more detail, try these best-selling books packed with facts about lecithin.

Note:  Because Lecithin breaks down oils, I take about 600 mg at the same time I take Omega 3 (fish oil).  This helps my digestion and helps prevent the repeating common with Omega 3.  Glen

Deficiency Symptoms Of Lecithin:

As you can see from the benefits, Lecithin is pretty important to your body.  Cells without Lecithin are sick or dying.  The good news is, it's very difficult to become deficient in lecithin, short of starvation.

Toxicity (Overdose) Symptoms Of Lecithin:

Lecithin is the ultimate in non-toxic.  Not only will it break up and eliminate other toxins, but when the job is done, it destroys and eliminates itself.

Foods High In Lecithin:

All fresh foods...the fresher, the better.  Though many have recommended egg lecithin...it's better to get it from plant sources.

Supplements Of Lecithin:

Because we get Lecithin from all fresh foods, there is no daily recommended amount.  Still, because of the many advantages of Lecithin, many people supplement 1,000-1,200 mg per day.  If you're looking for sources, here are the most popular lecithin supplements

Health And Fitness For Life:

If you're looking to nutrition for health and fitness, you probably want a healthy life...not just body or looks...but mind, body and spirit.  You can renew your mind and spirit with God's help.  He can heal the stuff your diet doesn't control.  If you want His help, go to Healing From God.
