Isn't lecithin a soy waste product that's genetically modified and contains a high amount of pesticides? Unfortunately, our supermarket shelves are loaded with products such as baked goods, breads, chocolate, salad dressings, etc. that contain soy lecithin, soybean oil, etc. Anyone who eats these foods regularly are probably getting more than enough unhealthy lecithin without supplementation

In Asia, only a small amount of fermented soy, like miso, is eaten as a supplement to protein, like fish. In the U.S. our food supply has been tainted with "Americanized soy." The chocolate cake you brought home from the supermarket is really soybeans in the form of chocolate cake your Mom used to bake from scratch. i read labels and don't purchase any products containing soy.

There are other supplements besides lecithin to lower cholesterol, like plant sterols without soy that he can try. I lowered by total cholesterol by 50 points and raised my HDL 15 points by changing my diet and supplementing with sterols and Policosanol.
