Food Grade Natural Nutrient Soybean Soya Lecithin Powder Emulsifier Soy Lecithin CAS: 8002-43-5

What is Soy Lecithin?

Soy Lecithin is a high-purity functional lipid extracted from non-GMO soybean oil during the refining process. It is obtained via solvent extraction and alcohol precipitation, resulting in a light yellow, free-flowing powder with a minimum 98% lecithin content. Rich in phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol, soy lecithin plays a key role in cellular structure, liver protection, and fat metabolism.

In the food and supplement industry, soy lecithin is widely used as a natural emulsifier, moisturizer, and stabilizer. It also functions as a source of choline, supporting brain and liver health.

Applications

• Nutritional Supplements: Choline source in brain and liver support formulas
• Functional Foods: Emulsifier in chocolate, dairy, and baked goods
• Cosmetic Industry: Skin-conditioning agent in creams and lotions
• Pharmaceuticals: Carrier for fat-soluble actives in softgels and tablets
• Animal Feed: Enhances lipid digestibility and nutrient absorption
