Liver & Brain Health Stark Pharm - Sunflower Lecithin (250 grams) (non-GMO dry sunflower lecithin)

Description

Food supplement Stark Pharm - Sunflower Lecithin contains dry powder of lecithin, a fat-like substance, which is a mixture of phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine (19-21%), phosphatidylethanolamine (15-17%), inositol-containing phosphatides (10-12%) and phosphatidylserine (0 .5-1%)) with triglycerides and a small amount of other substances.

Phosphatidylcholine (Phosphatidilcholine) - are the most common representative of phospholipids in the body, form the basis of all cell membranes and the main food of the entire nervous system of the body.

Phosphatidylinositol ( PtdIns, PI ) is a minor phospholipid in the inner layer of eukaryotic cell membranes, an important component of intracellular signaling pathways.

Phosphatidylserine (Phosphatidylserine) - this famous molecule is also called the "memory molecule". Phosphatidylserine is one of the most prominent members of the phospholipid family and serves as a functional component of brain membranes. It is mainly concentrated in brain cells and is associated with the manifestation of neuronal activity. Currently, the study of the biological role of phosphatidylserine in the composition of phospholipids and its importance in brain function - memory properties and learning abilities - is a hot topic in modern medicine. It has a very wide biological activity in the body: reducing cortisol levels, improving brain function and maintaining its health (memory , intelligence, etc.), taking 300 mg of phosphatidylserine per day for a month helped young people cope better with stress (tested during an arithmetic test), according to research, it can improve mood. And no less important, in the composition of lecithin, it is much cheaper than solo in the form of a purified phospholipid.

Phosphatidylethanolamine (Phosphatidylethanolamine) - performs structural functions, is a lipid component of the ATP membrane system in cells. Phosphatidylethanolamine can be converted to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine.

Biological effects of lecithin

• is the main nutrition of the entire nervous system (part of the sheaths of nerve fibers;
• ensures the normal metabolism of phospholipids (with its lack, irritability, nervous breakdowns, fatigue appear);
• is the most important building material for the brain (multiple sclerosis, memory loss and other disorders of brain activity are usually accompanied by a low content of lecithin in the human body);
• lack of lecithin in children leads to scattered attention, low learning ability;
• reduces the level of cholesterol and the concentration of fatty acids in the blood;
• helps to clear the walls of blood vessels from cholesterol plaques;
• improves liver and kidney function, prevents the formation of gallstones;
• helps the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, necessary for the nutrition of all body cells
• lecithin helps the body produce energy; its deficiency is often observed with great physical exertion.

Recommendations for use in sports

• As an additional remedy in combination with other drugs to protect the liver under the influence of significant physical exertion.
• Functional disorders associated with digestion.
• Restorative therapy.
• Food and drug poisoning.
• Fatty degeneration of the liver of various etiologies, acute and chronic hepatitis.

If we talk about an allergic reaction to lecithin (primarily soy), then it occurs, but extremely rarely.
