Phospholipids are a kind of pure natural nutritional health food, with a wide range of sources. They mainly exist in the cells of animals and plants, and are the main component of biological cell membranes. In animals, the ones with higher content include heart, liver, brain, kidney, bone marrow and eggs; in plants, they are more concentrated in oilseed crops, such as peanut oil, with a content of 0.4 - 0.63%.
Soybean lecithin is a basic substance for life. It is not only an important component of human biological membranes, but also a source of choline and fatty acids. It plays a key role in maintaining the physiological activity of biological membranes and the normal metabolism of the body, and is known as the "vascular cleaner". Lecithin is a comprehensive functional nutritional product. Regular supplementation can play a very important role in preventing and improving cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, enhancing brain function and intelligence, preventing fatty liver and liver cirrhosis, and beautifying the skin.
"Lecithin" is derived from the Greek word "Lekiths", meaning "egg yolk". In 1844, the Frenchman Gohley discovered lecithin (egg yolkine) from egg yolk and named it Lecithos (lecithin in English), thus unveiling the mystery of lecithin. Because it was originally extracted from egg yolk, the original name "lecithin" actually contained several components: phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, etc.
We first clarify a concept: The "lecithin" on the market is a mixture of various phospholipids, not the purified "lecithin". To distinguish the two, we call the former "Phospholipid" and its Chinese name is "phospholipid"; the latter is called "phosphatidylcholine" and its Chinese name is "lecithin". "Chemical name: Phosphatidylcholine".

Products Application

Soy lecithin is an essential substance extracted from soybeans. It is also one of the lipid components needed by the human body. In industry, it is mainly used as an emulsifier, moisturizer, thickener, etc. At the same time, it also has the function of a nutritional supplement. Most importantly, it has some other physiological regulatory functions. And the main effect relies on phosphatidylcholine, that is to say, the core of this part's function is the actual lecithin part.
1. Delaying aging
The human body is composed of 60 trillion cells. Every second, 500,000 cells die and 500,000 new cells are regenerated. As one ages, the number of dying cells will increase while the number of regenerated cells will decrease. When the number of dying cells exceeds the number of regenerated cells, the person begins to age. The metabolic process of cells is regulated by the cell membrane. The health of the cell membrane is directly related to the cell's self-repair ability, information transmission ability, ability to resist external aggression, cell activity and regeneration ability. The cell membrane is mainly composed of lecithin. Supplementing lecithin to the human body means repairing the damaged cell membrane, improving the function of the cell membrane, softening and rejuvenating it, and increasing cell activity. By taking in lecithin, one can enhance the body's metabolic ability, self-healing ability and the regeneration ability of antibody tissues, and enhance the vitality of the body, fundamentally delaying aging.
2. Vascular cleaner, preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
Lecithin can emulsify and break down fats. It can emulsify cholesterol and fat attached to the blood vessel wall into microparticles, which can be dissolved in the blood and transported back to the liver for metabolism. It has the effect of softening blood vessels, improving serum lipids, clearing peroxides, and making the blood vessels softer and younger, increasing cell activity. By taking in lecithin, one can improve the body's metabolic ability, self-healing ability and the regeneration ability of antibody tissues, enhance the body's vitality, and fundamentally delay aging.
3. Brain-boosting and intelligence-enhancing, preventing senile dementia
Lecithin can provide sufficient nutrients to brain nerve cells, accelerating the speed of information transmission between brain nerves, thereby enhancing brain vitality, eliminating brain fatigue, making the brain thinking agile, and improving learning and work efficiency. While repairing damaged brain cells and clearing obstacles between the brain and blood circulation, lecithin can maintain the normal function of brain nerve cells and enhance the function of the brain nervous system, thereby achieving the effect of preventing senile dementia.
4. Liver protector
Excessive alcohol consumption or excessive nutrition will increase the burden on liver cells and reduce the liver's ability to synthesize phospholipids. When there is a deficiency of phospholipid choline in the human body, fat will accumulate in the liver in large quantities, forming fatty liver, damaging liver cells, reducing liver function, and causing liver cirrhosis or even liver cancer. Scientific proof shows that supplementing lecithin can enhance the material metabolism of liver cells, promote fat degradation, protect the liver, and prevent the occurrence of fatty liver and other diseases.
5. Nutritional supplement for diabetics
Lecithin can enhance the function of the pancreas, repair pancreatic cells, and make them secrete sufficient insulin, reducing blood sugar, effectively transporting glucose in the blood to cells, thereby alleviating the symptoms of diabetes.
6. Main component of biological membranes
It is an indispensable basic substance for the human body.
Lecithin can promote nerve conduction, enhance brain vitality, and due to its good emulsifying property, can effectively prevent cholesterol from precipitating on the blood vessel wall and remove some of the precipitates, thereby reducing serum cholesterol, reducing blood viscosity, promoting blood circulation, and preventing cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, regularly consuming products containing soybean soft lecithin can effectively regulate blood lipids and cholesterol, improve brain function, enhance memory, and prevent the occurrence of various diseases.
