Lecithin

[Guest guest]

From what I've read Lecithin is suppose to be very

good for the brain. My mother used to give it to me

when I was a child so it has been around for a long

time. I've never read anything negative about it. I

personally LOVE the taste of lecithin granules (that's

probably not a typical thing. My food tastes may be

unusual).

I still buy it once in awhile and I like it sprinkled

on cereal or mixed in yogurt (for GFCF can mix in goat

milk yogurt if that's tolerable). I haven't tried

this, but I'd imagine it would be good in peanut

butter balls (SCD diet, or a mix of rice flour, peanut

butter, honey and lecithin. Yummm!).

: Re:

, anyone?

I had bought a bag of lecithin granules and decided

to dump some into

some muffins I was making for ds. On the bag it

gave recipes so I

had

assumed that I could bake with it. Only now do I

realize that maybe

baking the lecithin destroys it in terms of its

value as a vitamin.

Do you have any insights on that? I was hoping to

give ds one of his

many supps in a more appealing way, but maybe my

idea is a bad one.

like to spell that

word:). It is great for the digestion and wonderful

for the liver. We

got increased attention and much better, even moods

with it.

Anne,

Yes, that's why I did a lot of double-checking on that one. My own son is

GFCFSF, and so many of the great GFCF products & recipes contain lecithin!

Now I sometimes even spread liquid lecithin on his GF toast before I add

almond butter or honey or add it to a smoothie- no negative reaction.

That was my concern. So, generally, for our soy free kids, anything

with soy lecithin should be okay? Of course, there will be

exceptions...

Yes, most kids who don't tolerate soy, will do okay with lecithin.

However, some don't tolerate lecithin and soy oils.
