Food supplement made from soy. On excess cholesterol, soy lecithin has several mechanisms of action. The first is that it is a fat that specifically competes in the body with cholesterol, displacing it from the places where it tends to be deposited. Secondly, as it is an emulsifier, it reduces the size of fat vacuoles in the bloodstream, improving the proportion of small vacuoles (HDL or "good" cholesterol) in relation to larger ones (LDL or "cholesterol"). bad"). Thirdly, it exerts an antioxidant action that causes cholesterol to oxidize less and, therefore, the same amount has a lower atherogenic power, that is, it forms fewer atherosclerosis plaques, basically composed of oxidized LDL cholesterol. Senile degeneration, which causes memory loss, seems to improve significantly with the regular intake of phospholipids of good biological quality. Lecithin is also useful in cases of stress, exam times or in general to nourish the brain.
