Studio : Best in Nature Publisher : Best in Nature Binding : Health and Beauty Product Description Lecithin is a naturally occurring compound found in all cells in nature, both plant and animal. It plays a major role in most biological processes - from breathing to energy production to nerve transmission. Your brain is approximately 30% lecithin!* Lecithin is composed of a group of phosphorus containing fats or phospholipids the most important being phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylethanolamine. Lecithin can be found in a variety of foods including egg yolks, milk, meats, fish, and legumes. Since our intake of some of these foods has been reduced due to cholesterol and fat concerns we have concomitantly reduced our intake of this important nutrient. 0
