Lecithin fraction linked to memory functioning

A lecithin fraction that some studies have shown can boost memory and
concentration is now available in liquid and powder form for food
formulations.

The fraction, phosphatidylserine (PS), is already sold in dietary
supplements and is just starting to be included in foods. Clinical
trials have shown it to be effective in improving human brain function.

The ability to suppress the iron-dependent decomposition of PC-OOH may
explain the unique antioxidant activity of phosphatidylserine.

Description

Lecithin contains several essential phospholipids required by every
living cell in the human body. These phospholipids include
Phosphatidylserine, Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylinositol,
Phosphatidylethanolamine, Phosphatidylglycerol, Phosphatidic Acid and
others. Lecithin breaks down cholesterol and fats in the blood,
allowing them to be effectively utilized by the cells of the body.
Lecithin aids in the absorption of the fat soluble Vitamins A, D, E and
K, and improves the health of the nervous system.
