Composition:

Soy Lecithin – 1360 mg

​

Other Ingredients:

Gelatin, vegetable glycerin, soy-derived ingredients.

Does not contain:
Gluten, starch, dairy, yeast, sugar, salt, artificial flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives.

Indications:

Lecithin serves as a building material to restore damaged cells.
It supports brain and liver function, enhances attention and cognition, and protects the liver from fatty degeneration.

Lecithin contains essential phospholipids, choline, and inositol, which act as major carriers of fatty acids, cholesterol, and vitamins throughout the body.

It is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from highly toxic free radicals and enhances the effectiveness of medications.

Neurological system:

Lecithin is essential for the normal functioning of the nervous system, as it is a primary nutrient for nerve cells:

• 17% of the peripheral nervous system

• 30% of the brain

• a key component in the synthesis of myelin (neurotransmission)

Lecithin deficiency can lead to the breakdown of the myelin sheath in nerve cells.
Thus, it is widely used in neurology for:

• Stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic), both acute phase and rehabilitation

• Multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s

• Cognitive decline, nervous exhaustion, tics

• Genetic disorders (e.g., Down syndrome)

• Crisis conditions: migraines, hyperexcitability, neurosis, insomnia

• Traumatic and infectious damage to the nervous system

Liver function:

Lecithin is a key component of liver tissue (50% of the liver, 65% of total body lecithin).
It helps restore liver structure and regulate fat metabolism, and is used in:

• Fatty liver disease

• Hepatitis

• Cirrhosis

• Toxic liver damage (including alcohol-related)

• Obesity

Digestive and hepatobiliary system:

Lecithin stimulates bile secretion and improves bile composition. It is used for:

• Gallstone disease (treatment and prevention)

• Biliary dyskinesia

• Peptic ulcer disease (stomach and duodenum)

Cardiovascular system:

The heart contains the highest concentration of lecithin, making it beneficial for:

• Heart attack prevention and post-infarction recovery

• Maintaining cholesterol in a soluble form to prevent arterial plaque

• Managing triglyceride and hemoglobin levels in blood

Used in:

• Atherosclerosis

• Ischemic heart disease

• Hypertension

• Cardiomyopathy

• Heart failure

• Anemia

Dosage:

Take 1 capsule daily with food.
Depending on the indication, up to 6 capsules daily may be taken under a doctor’s supervision.

Storage:

Store at room temperature, out of reach of children.
