Soya Lecithin

Natural phospholipid emulsifier supporting fat absorption and feed pelleting.

Liquid soya lecithin feed ingredient

Product Overview

Soya Lecithin is a natural co-product of soybean oil refining. In animal nutrition, liquid soya lecithin serves as a vital source of dietary phospholipids, bioavailable choline, and essential fatty acids. It functions as an effective emulsifier, assisting in fat digestion and nutrient absorption, while improving feed pellet quality and reducing dustiness during manufacturing.
