The body's highest concentration of lecithin is found in the vital organs, where it makes up about 30% of the dry weight of the brain and nearly two-thirds of the fat in the liver.

A compound consisting of two fatty acid chains, a phosphate group, and a base present in egg yolk and soya beans. It is also called phosphatidyl-choline. Lecithin usually contains a high proportion of linoleic acid. It is often added to processed foods as an emulsifying agent, binding food components together and making them more soluble. In the body, lecithin is a component of cell membranes, including the myelin sheath around nerves, and it is involved in fat metabolism. It has been claimed that lecithin helps cholesterol bind to the high density lipoproteins that remove the cholesterol from tissues. Some coaches prescribe lecithin in post-competition diets because they believe it accelerates recovery.

Lecithin acts as an emulsifier and helps the body in the absorption of fats.Some proponents of lecithin warn that the low fat and low cholesterol diets that many Americans follow may lower the amount of lecithin that we consume, creating a deficit and necessitating supplemental lecithin. Choline is the key element in lecithin that researchers believe may have a beneficial effect on cholesterol and memory .Lecithin is also considered to be of possible benefit to brain function, and supporters claim that it may help prevent Alzheimer's disease. Promoters indicate that the choline in lecithin may have the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier and impact the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that facilitates brain function. They claim that long-term use of lecithin could help minimize memory loss.
