Lecithin consists largely a phospholipid called phosphocholine, which is an essential building material of cell membranes. The phospholipid called choline, is very effective in body fat metabolism. Choline transports fats, muscles, tissues, where they are used as a source of energy. In this way, lecithin can change body fat into energy very efficiently. Choline can also carry out fat of the liver and balance liver function.

Phosphocholine passes the outer surfaces of the cell membranes, which improves the communication between cells. For this reason, the lecithin is said to improve memory.

Active exercise and concentration work eequires a lively nerve activity. Choline is an essential building material of body's main nerve impulses broker substance acetylcholine. Acetylcholine acts as a mediator of nerve impulses in the muscles and the brain. Lecithine may be useful to many aging horses.
