Description
"Phosphatidylcholine" is a supplement derived from lecithin, naturally found in soybeans, eggs, and sunflower seeds. It serves as a vital source of choline, an essential nutrient involved in lipid metabolism, neurotransmission, and liver health. This compound supports cholesterol transport, cellular function, and cognitive processes. Commonly included in nutrient-rich formulations, phosphatidylcholine plays a structural role in cell membranes and supports metabolic balance. Its contribution to biochemical pathways and physiological stability makes it a key component of dietary health strategies.
