What is Soy Lecithin?

Lecithin is a food additive generally used as an emulsifier in the production of food.  A naturally occurring fat, it is known to boost metabolism.

Soy Lecithin is extracted from soybeans and composed of choline, fatty acids and phospholipids.

When used as an emulsifier, soy lecithin helps prevent ingredients from separating.  For example, creating a homogeneous mixture of oils and water.

One of the most commonly used food emulsifiers is soy lecithin.  Alternative sources include sunflower, egg yolk, guar gum, xanthan gum, and gelatin.

You will find soy lecithin (and other emulsifiers) in mayonnaise, salad dressings, chocolate, soups, sauces, and baked goods, among other processed foods.
