Best taken before bed.

Lecithin is a complex mixture of natural chemical compounds called "phospholipids" which consist of fatty acids and a phosphate group linked to choline and inositol. Lecithin occurs naturally in all human, animal and vegetable cells. The most abundant source of lecithin in plant life is the soya bean. In humans, where the highest concentrations are found in the brain, liver, kidneys and bone marrow, lecithin circulates in the blood keeping other fatty substances - including cholesterol - in suspension. Lecithin is rich in phosphatidyl choline, a nutrient which plays an important role in the breakdown of fat in the liver and the emulsification of fat in food. Many of the foods we eat have been refined thus destroying their valuable lecithin content, diets which are rich in refined foods may not contain sufficient lecithin. Many men and women, particularly those on low fat, low cholesterol diets like to supplement the body's own supply of lecithin. Patrick Holford in his book "Optimum Nutrition for the Mind" suggests a tablespoon of lecithin granules every day as choline is transformed into acetycholine, a brain chemical vital for the transmission of messages between the brain cells..

Lecigran can be sprinkled onto all kinds of foods without affecting the taste or it can be taken directly from the spoon if preferred. Lecigran is a highly concentrated form of lecithin - one teaspoonful contains as much lecithin as eighteen 270mg capsules. Lecigran is available in the following sizes: 250g and 500g.

Some minerals are thought to be lacking in the modern diet because of local variations of the mineral content in the soil used to grow food. Extra Selenium capsules contain biologically active selenium yeast, so providing it in an organic food form. In the U.K. the availability from vegetables is low compared to that of countries where growing conditions give rich results. Seafoods probably account for dietary source and where shellfish or other seafood is lacking regularly from the diet it may result in inadequate intake. One capsule daily will provide an adequate dose of this trace element which is present in a medium upon which primary grown yeast feeds and is taken up into the cells during the growth cycle. It is then more easily absorbed into the bloodstream than inorganic forms because it is a natural biological food source. Careful laboratory trial and batch testing helps ensure accuracy of product content. Each capsule contains 100ug.
