Lecithin Dosage and When to Take Lecithin

Question by Joe (Peoria, AZ) on 11/16/2006

Hi. I have a question for Ted. I've noticed that you often recommend taking lecithin. You say to take it before meals. I was just wondering, how should I take it Do I dissolve it in water Sprinkle it on the food I'm sure you don't mean just eat it off the spoon, right Also, what is your opinion on lecithin pills Are they fine to take, or should I just stick to the granular stuff Finally, is there any problem with using "soy lecithin" supplements One store I went to only had that type. If not, what exactly should I look for Thanks for all your help, Ted.

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
