Micro Ingredients Sunflower Lecithin 2400mg Double Strength With Phosphatidylcholine Soy Free Cold Pressed Dietary Supplement 240 Softgels

I first heard about the health benefits of lecithin when I accompanied my mother to a health seminar as an adolescent, I'll admit, I didn't pay a lot of attention to it at the time. I was young, I felt invincible and didn't think I needed such things. Many years have passed, and the idea of a simple substance rumored to support heart health, digestion, liver function and cognitive ability seems a lot more attractive now. That's why I decided to check out Micro Ingredients Sunflower Lecithin.This supplement comes in the form of soft gel caps instead of powder or "globules" like I've encountered before. They're about the size and shape of chocolate covered raisins, something that might grab the attention of young children, so keep them stored in a protective place. They aren't in a child safety bottle, but are packed in a zip type storage bag, increasing the need for safe storage (more environmentally friendly, less kid safe). The gel caps are easy to swallow and don't get stuck in my throat, even though they're a bit large. I didn't notice any unpleasant odor or taste. Instructions on the bag state that a dose is three per day. There isn't a standard suggested dose for lecithin, the amount varies depending on the reason for taking it. Taking three of these gel caps per day equals 2400 mg, which falls into the typical use range. I have to admit, I don't like taking three, but I'm following the schedule for now and will only drop back if I begin to experience side effects. For now, I'm doing fine.Unlike many lecithin supplements these have no soy in them, which I really appreciate. Though I ordered them primarily for my personal use, I want to make them available to anyone in my household who wishes to take them. One family member tries to avoid soy products, but this won't cause a problem as these are made from sunflower seeds. These supplements check all the boxes for features I look for: they're non-GMO, made in a cGMP compliant facility, and third party tested. I did not, however, see an indication that they're vegan, so I'm assuming gelatin is animal based. The supplements are quite potent, and in addition to lecithin they contain 360 mg of Phosphatidylcholine, which provides even more benefits for cognitive function and cells. These appear to be made in the US. A CA address is on the package along with other contact information should there be any questions. By all appearances these appear to be excellent supplements. A bag will provide one user with an eighty-day supply. I'm very happy with this product.****About me: Integrity is very important to me. Reviews I've posted will be from items I've had direct contact with. These are my honest opinions. I will not post a review for a product I have not had personal contact with.

I grabbed these when I ran out of my usual Legendairy sunflower lecithin. I use lecithin both preventatively (to help avoid clogged ducts) and therapeutically if I feel one starting, so it's something I like to always have on hand.These have been working just as well for me as the Legendairy brand. The dosing is higher per gel cap, but the softgels are noticeably smaller, which I actually prefer. Swallowing multiple capsules a day is way less annoying when they're compact.This also isn't my first time using Micro Ingredients. I've been taking their raspberry powder for months and their methylcobalamin B12 for a while too, and both have been solid quality, so adding another supplement from them felt like an easy yes. I've consistently had good experiences with this brand.They're soy-free, non-GMO, and straightforward -- no weird fillers or unnecessary extras -- just sunflower lecithin in a simple softgel, which is exactly what I want.One thing I did want to clarify after reading another review: someone mentioned "artificial color" and assumed caramel coloring. Caramel coloring isn't actually caramel or flavored, and "natural color" isn't the same thing as artificial dye. Just worth noting so it doesn't scare anyone off unnecessarily.Overall, this is a great, budget-friendly swap for the more expensive lactation-branded options. I'll happily keep buying these.

Great stuff and must have as part of a holistic life style.

Wonderful additive to sauces, soups, and shakes as properly! Chiefly with lecithins ability as a binder I would endorse this to anyone that cooks anything. It not only absolutely helps bind oils, but it also helps thicken things too! It has a absolutely great concentrated earthy sunflower flavor. Besides, the possible health benefits.

I recently bought the Micro Ingredients Sunflower Lecithin 2,400 mg (240 softgels) and have been using it daily. I'm pleased with the overall quality of the softgels but really have nothing to report as to benefit so far. The softgels are easy to swallow with no adverse taste. I like that they're sourced from natural sunflower seed oil avoiding soy and gluten.It's too early to judge long‑term effects, but I've noticed subtle difference in digestion and overall well‑being since starting these. Overall, this supplement feels like a high‑quality, reliable choice if you want lecithin support without soy or gluten. I'd recommend it, and I'd consider buying again!
