NOW® Supplements, Sunflower Lecithin 1200 mg Softgels
Provide your body with the foundational building blocks for cellular and neurological health. NOW® Sunflower Lecithin is a premium, soy-free supplement that naturally abounds in Phosphatidyl Choline—a key phospholipid essential for the healthy structure and function of every cell in your body, especially in the brain.
The Building Blocks of Healthy Cells & a Sharp Mind
Lecithin is a vital source of phospholipids, the primary components of all cell membranes. The most important of these is Phosphatidyl Choline, which is highly concentrated in the brain and nervous system. It plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of your neurons, supporting cellular communication, and aiding in healthy synaptic function. By choosing a high-quality sunflower source, you get these benefits without soy.
- Nervous System Support: Provides essential nutrients that support healthy nerve cell structure and communication.
- Supports Brain Health: As a source of choline, it aids in the production of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter for memory and cognitive function.
- Aids Cellular Function: Helps maintain the health and fluidity of cell membranes throughout the body.
- Soy-Free & Non-GMO: An excellent alternative for those with soy sensitivities or anyone seeking a clean, non-GMO source of lecithin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What is Lecithin and what does it do?
- Lecithin is a type of fat that is essential in the cells of the body. It is a rich source of phospholipids, like Phosphatidyl Choline, which are crucial for building cell membranes, especially in the brain and nervous system.
- Why is it important that this is a “soy-free” lecithin?
- Many people have sensitivities or allergies to soy. Sunflower lecithin provides all the benefits of lecithin without the potential for soy-related allergic reactions, and it is always non-GMO, unlike much of the soy supply.
- How is this different from taking a choline supplement?
- Sunflower lecithin provides choline in its naturally occurring phospholipid form (Phosphatidyl Choline), which is how it’s typically found in cell membranes. Many find this to be a more holistic way to supplement their choline intake.
