Lecithin-derived phospholipid formula. Each daily dose contains 2880 mg of phospholipids. Supports liver health. Phos Choline delivers phospholipids that help support liver function. Phosphatidylcholine is the primary phospholipid (also known as phosphatide) found in lecithin. It is an important component of cell membranes and is found in high concentrations in hepatocytes. All lipoproteins are rich in phosphatidylcholine and are primarily produced by the liver. Normal phosphatidylcholine levels can prevent hepatic lipid accumulation, as phosphatidylcholine is necessary for the production and secretion of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), which transport triglycerides from the liver. Phosphatidylcholines can lead to a buildup of VLDL and triglycerides in the liver, negatively affecting liver function and health. Recent in vitro tests have shown that hepatocytes can also overproduce free radicals when in a choline-deficient environment; excess production of reactive oxygen species can damage DNA and impair liver function. In a randomized, double-blind trial, 57 healthy adults adopted a choline-deficient diet. After six weeks of depletion, fatty liver, liver damage, and muscle damage were observed in 68% of participants. When choline was restored to the diet, organ dysfunction was corrected for all participants within six weeks.
