Non-GMO Lecithin 1200 mg. - 100 Softgels NOW Foods

The Basics of Lecithin Supplements
This fat-like substance is commonly known as a phospholipid and helps nourish the body with many nutrients such as B vitamins, choline, and inositol. Your cell membranes are largely made from lecithin and use this fatty material to allow nutrients to leave or enter your cell. Common everyday dietary sources of lecithin are eggs and soybeans. Lecithin helps your body break down and use fats properly. It also helps support your cell’s chances of getting nutrients your brain and nervous system need for proper functioning. Use lecithin for the best chance of full body nourishment and helping your brain renew itself properly.

Why Say Hello to Lecithin?
One exciting extract naturally contained in lecithin is phosphatidylserine. Don’t let the long name distract you! This compound has been tested to be an effective supplement for helping to treat and prevent for Alzheimer's. The same study suggested that the earlier this supplement is taken, the better the brain boosting and protective effects will be. Another study noted that dementia patients given just 300mg of lecithin per day improved in all levels of cognition and memory when compared to a placebo. However, you don’t have to wait until you are suffering with Alzheimer’s or dementia in order to begin supplementing with lecithin. One study noticed that elderly patients with general brain decline noticed an improvement of both cognitive and behavioral performance after just 6 months of use.

Phosphatidyl Choline - a Natural Brain Health Superhero
Another naturally occuring phospholipid found in NOW Foods Lecithin Softgel is Phosphatidyl Choline. This substance has been used to break down fat in the body for cosmetic procedures. However, doctors saw it as a promising nutrient because of its ability to increase acetylcholine within the body. Acetylcholine is one of the most powerful neurotransmitters found within the brain. Not only does it help with memory, linguistics, creativity, and cognition, but also with muscle memory, mobility, and body coordination. Some studies showed that Alzheimer’s patients had up to 90% less acetylcholine than non-Alzheimer’s patients. By supplementing with Phosphatidyl Choline you can get a natural boost of acetylcholine and say help your brain grow younger.
