What Are the Benefits of Soya Lecithin?
Soya lecithin, or soy lecithin, is derived from soybeans. It is the gummy substance that is removed during the soybean oil de-gumming process. Lecithin is edible and digestible, and food product manufacturers use it as an emulsifier. Lecithin is a source of choline, a basic component of cell membranes throughout your body, and is naturally found in foods such as egg yolks, soybeans, fish and peanuts. It is also sold in a supplement form. Always follow your health care provider’s advice about taking supplements.
