Product: Lecithin 1200 mg (200 Gels) Asked on: October 24, 2013 Question: I have heard that soy lecithin often contains solvents and pesticides left over from soybean production.I have also heard that unfermented soy products are rich in enzyme inhibitors that can interfere with proper digestion.Can you please respond to these concerns regarding your soy lecithin products ?Thanks Glen.
00A: Commercial lecithin manufacturing does indeed utilize solvents such as ethanol/alcohol, hexane or acetone in the extraction of lecithin. However nearly all solvent residue is evaporated out leaving behind very low levels of a few ppm (parts per million). Any potential pesticide residue would be lower than compared to soybean based products such as tofu, veggie burgers or edamame. Unfermented soy products would not include lecithin since it is separated from the actual trypsin inhibitors in processing. Now foods does offer several non-GMO soy lecithin softgels and granules as well as soy-free sunflower lecithin caps.
