People with egg and soy allergies need to be especially careful to find out where the lecithin in their supplements comes from, to avoid allergic reactions.
Lecithin can be found in a lot of the products that you may already eat, like eggs and animal products. There’s no risk from the lecithin that occurs naturally in your food.
Supplements, however, are not monitored for quality by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. There may be effects that aren’t yet understood. People taking lecithin need to be aware of dosing recommendations, and shouldn’t exceed more than 5,000 milligrams per day. *
