NOW Foods Lecithin Granules 1 lb.

NOW® Lecithin Granules provide non-GMO soy lecithin — a naturally occurring compound found in every cell — rich in phosphatidyl choline and other phosphatides.* Phosphatidyl choline makes up a major portion of the brain and the myelin sheaths that insulate nerves, and lecithin also supplies naturally occurring essential fatty acids and inositol.* As an emulsifier it helps fats disperse in water, so it's popular in shakes and smoothies too.* Mix 1½ tablespoons into juice, a shake, or sprinkle on food for a whole-food source of choline and phospholipids.*

Frequently asked questions

What is lecithin good for?
Lecithin is rich in phosphatidyl choline, a phospholipid that makes up a major part of the brain and the myelin that insulates nerves, plus essential fatty acids and inositol — so it's taken to support brain and nerve health and to supply choline.*

Why granules?
The granules dissolve into shakes, smoothies and juices and can be sprinkled on food; lecithin also acts as an emulsifier, helping fats blend with liquids. It's a flexible, whole-food way to get phospholipids.*

Does it contain soy?
Yes — these granules are non-GMO soy lecithin, so avoid them if you have a soy allergy. (NOW also offers a soy-free sunflower lecithin.)*
