Lecithin powder is a natural substance rich in phospholipids, often sourced from soybeans or sunflower seeds. It is widely used in food, cosmetics, and supplements for its emulsifying properties and health benefits like supporting brain function and digestion. The product is extracted through cold-press or solvent methods to ensure high quality.
Our lecithin powder, made from non-GMO soybeans, is a pale yellow powder with a mild, nutty odor. It's commonly used in bakery products, dressings, and supplements, with recommended use between 0.5% and 3%.
We stand out by offering a high phosphatidylcholine content, ensuring superior emulsification and consistent performance in formulations, making it a preferred choice for businesses seeking quality and reliability in their products.
