Dear Joe: If you take lecithin before meals, the body can rid of excess fats from the food you eat better when you do eat. To dissolve lecithin in water is not easy. They are very sticky. Sprinkle on food is o.k. too so that the body will handle the fatty food better. However if I suggest to you to take it on an empty stomach then that means you take it directly by the tablespoon. In this case, I used this to remove heavy metals from the body.
Also, what is your opinion on lecithin pills Are they fine to take, or >should I just stick to the granular stuff
The pill kinds are oil and they don't have as much lecithin content as the old granulated kind. In fact one gram granulated lecithin is equal to about 6 grams of those liquid kind. Therefore you get higher quality lecithin using the granulated kinds.
Finally, is there any problem with using "soy lecithin" supplements
The granulated lecithin type are often soy type. So this is the correct one. Ted
