PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE (PC)

Phosphatidylcholine is a glycerophospholipid that is involved in the metabolism of several lipid compounds. When medical researchers use the term “lecithin,” they are referring to a purified substance called phosphatidyl choline. Phosphatidylcholine is an excellent fat burner. Phosphatidylcholine's role in the maintenance of cell-membrane integrity is vital to all of the basic biological processes. These are: information flow that occurs within cells from DNA to RNA to proteins; the formation of cellular energy and intracellular communication or signal transduction. Many Mesotherapy practitioners use phosphatidylcholine by itself for weight loss. Similar products on the market include Lipostabil and Essentiale.
