Lecithin is a chemical compound that is mainly composed of fatty acids, glycerine, phosphoric acid and choline and is one of the phospholipids. It is a purely natural product that is particularly rich in egg yolks, soybeans, sunflower seeds and the cells of plant seeds. Soy and sunflower lecithin contain significantly more essential fatty acids than rapeseed lecithin and are therefore more nutritionally valuable.
