Swanson Lecithin Granules - Non-Gmo 100% Pure 16 oz Granules 2 Pack

I put this in everything from smoothies to salads to sprinkling it on soups or other foods...just any way you want to do it in order to consume this very high quality NON-GMO Lecithin!!! It doesn't alter the taste of anything you put it on or in...but you sure do reap the wonderful benefits from it!!!

Gram for gram, Lecithin granules are a much better deal than buying Lecithin in softgel form, so I decided to give Swanson's granules a try. I have used other Lecithin granules in the past, and Swanson's are very comparable in taste and texture, but, as with almost all Swanson products, the price is much better! I use anywhere from a teaspoon to a tablespoon with dinner, as both an aid to digestion (Lecithin is an emulsifier like bile), and as an aid to help the absorption of other supplements, like Resveratrol and Milk Thistle. There are a few drawbacks to using Lecithin granules. First, they expire pretty quickly (at least mine do), and since there are a lot of granules in a container, ordering too many might leave you with some bad Lecithin. Second, while most supplements have a long shelf life, because of the oil in Lecithin, the granules can go rancid quickly, especially if not refrigerated. Third, because Lecithin is high in fat, taking it will increase your fat calories in a given day. Finally, Lecithin is high in Omega-6 fats, so taking too much could exacerbate the Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio in the body, which is why I always take Fish Oil along with Lecithin. Overall, I am very satisfied with the quality of these granules, bearing in mind the caveats I just mentioned.
