Dosage of phosphatidylcholine

[Guest guest]

I've purchased phosphatidylcholine (PC): it is supposed to be a

'triple strenght' lecithin containing 1.200 mg of soy lecithin per

softgel. One obtains 420 mg of PC per softgel.

In AI the recommended dose of " PC (concentrated lecithin) " is 5 grams,

but I don't know if it is meant to take 5 grams of

1. the concentrated soy lecithin, thus about 4 softgels per day or

2. the PC thing, thus about 12 softgels per day.

Does anyone know?

Thanks,

[Guest guest]

-I have gone by my symptoms. I need the 12 a day. I buy

Jarrow Mega PC-35 and take 2 with each meal which adds up to

the same amount. MY poor gallbladder bile is a major problem of

mine so I figure I need to maintain that high of a dose.

I also find I have to maintain milk thistle with each meal

which also helps bile flow. And NAC for my liver/glutathione

levels to be maintained.

Can you tell if it is helping with you?>

Hi gary

It helps with Irritable bowel, spasm of the bowel and

constipation.I would get these short jerky spasms and I would

jump it was such a shock.. A feeling as if food is just not

moving.. it sits and sits forever and my stomach will get worse

and worse as things back up. This is because my bile is not

working// I dont know if there is not enough or if it is not

moving well enough.

Oh and nausea and poor appetite if I stop the PC

This was my first symptom when I first got ill / oh yeh

nausea!!!! The bad ole days.. I had had a course of

antibiotics for recurring bladder infection followed a week

later I had a course of a drug to kill off parasites.

NOw those drugs were undoubteley very strong , I was

feeling full of energy out shopping then boom...

The first thing I said to myself is my feet felt like

lead.. I did not want to move.. Very fatigued and stiff. And

I had air hunger from the beginning 24 hours a day.. It was

unbeleivable.---. THis turned out to be from mitral valve

prolapse and after having it for 20 years , it was cured in

one month with with coenzyme Q10 ...

I had the nausea from the beginning. Taking milk thistle at

least got rid of it back 10 years ago now, but I still had

the irritable bowel , fatigue and stiffness. I just felt

like I could not move. - unbeleivable fatigue .. have I said

that before.. LOL>. I am in an emotional slump today.. even

though I do feel alot better , thinking about all of those

years.. OH vei!!!

Thanks to the lecithin, PC a bit more help for coping for

sure.... no a big help for me.. I would walk along way for

that one.

Hi !

Thank you for your answer.

So you think that 12 capsules a day is not the regular recommended

dose of 5 grams of PC, but just something suited to your particular needs?

I started PC two days ago, so probably it is too soon to be sure. My

main problem is that am I still unable to do serious mental efforts,

like to try to understand a mathematical result new for me and things

like that. While this is an incredible improvement compared with my

condition when I started chelation, in which sometimes I had brain fog

just trying to come back home, I am still working to try to recover

some of my previous abilities.

Yesterday I was able to do some maths, so maybe PC is working. It

makes sense, since one of my problems is arsenic toxicity and arsenic

reduces acetylcholine levels, which in turn produces cognitive

problems. I'll have to see if this is sound progress or just part of

the waxes and wanes of my brain functioning.

Currently I am taking 2 of this 420 mg capsules 3 a times a day, but I

am not sure if this is too much or too little. Probably I would have

to adjust the dose by trial and error, but it would be nice to know

what is the recommended dose to start with.

Sorry ANtonio , I figure the amounts Andy has given us is

just a ballpark amount to go by.. and everyone really is

different. I would suggest experimenting. It sounds like you do

not have the same problems as me with bile flow , so you may not

need so much.. But choline is needed for brain function so

hope that it helps yours.

My brain function had a noticeable improvement with

chelation. so keep on doing this ..
