Liquid sunflower lecithin is a 100% natural product, extracted from high-quality sunflower seeds through a gentle cold-pressing technology and subsequent natural extraction. The process does not use chemical solvents, which preserves the full spectrum of valuable nutrients. Lecithin is a mixture of phospholipids - vital for every cell in the human body.
Phospholipids and Choline
Sunflower lecithin is rich in phosphatidylcholine, a natural source of choline - a nutrient that:
- supports normal liver function and detoxification;
- participates in the construction of cell membranes;
- contributes to the normal function of the brain and nervous system;
- helps with proper fat metabolism.
Phospholipids in lecithin maintain the elasticity of cell membranes, improve nutrient absorption and play a key role in the balance of lipids in the body.
Health benefits of liquid sunflower lecithin
For the brain and memory
Choline in lecithin supports the production of acetylcholine - a neurotransmitter important for memory, concentration and good nerve conduction.
For the liver
Supports the regeneration of liver cells and reduces the accumulation of fat in the liver.
For the heart and blood vessels
Phospholipids help maintain normal cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
For digestion
It facilitates the emulsification and breakdown of fats, supports the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.
For cellular health
It participates in the construction of all cell membranes in the body, maintaining their flexibility and strength.
Liquid sunflower lecithin in cooking
Natural emulsifier
Lecithin is a natural emulsifier - it naturally binds water and fat, preventing their separation. Thanks to this:
- it gives sauces, creams and mayonnaise a smooth and homogeneous structure;
- it improves the volume and texture of pasta;
- it prolongs the freshness of baked goods;
- it helps to achieve a more airy structure in cakes, pies and bread.
As a substitute for butter and eggs
Liquid sunflower lecithin can be used as a vegan alternative to eggs in baked goods and confectionery, as it acts as a binding and emulsifying agent. In bread and other baked goods, it can replace part of the fat, adding softness and extending shelf life.
Example applications in the kitchen
- Homemade bread: 1-2 tbsp. lecithin in the dough for a softer texture and longer freshness.
- Smoothies and shakes: adds creaminess and improves nutrient absorption.
- Egg-free mayonnaise: lecithin stabilizes the mixture and prevents fat from separating.
- Chocolate and candies: gives a silky texture and prevents cocoa butter from separating.
Content: Cold-pressed, unrefined sunflower lecithin.
