Lecithin is an important component that manages to keep food in its healthiest state, thus avoiding its expiration. This thanks to the fact that it works as an antioxidant and also as an emulsifier.
This component manages to be quite addictive to our palates. It is also an important ingredient in foods such as soy and egg yolks, so we can find it in different products and we can even buy it as "soy lecithin" or "sunflower lecithin".
This incredible ingredient can be found in many products, whether natural or processed, such as: ice cream, pastries and even our beloved nutella, which is loved by millions of people around the world.
This product produces many benefits in our body since it not only has lecithin but also has components such as choline and the well-known inositol, which improve our entire nervous system and also help to break down the existing cholesterol in our body.
The only downside to lecithin is that it can cause hormonal difficulties in men, as it can act like natural estrogens.
