Frequently asked questions

What is phosphatidyl choline?
Phosphatidyl choline is a phospholipid that makes up a major portion of cell membranes in the brain and nervous system, and it's a source of the nutrient choline. Lecithin is naturally rich in it, which is why it's used to support brain and nerve function.*

What else does lecithin do?
Beyond phosphatidyl choline, lecithin contains naturally occurring essential fatty acids and inositol, and it acts as an emulsifier — helping fats mix with water — which is why it's also a common food ingredient.*

How do I take it, and does it contain soy?
Take 3 softgels daily. This lecithin is made from non-GMO soy, so it contains soy; those avoiding soy should note this.*
