Guest guest Posted June 19, 2002 Report Share Posted June 19, 2002 Dear Dawn, Though the word lecithin is derived from the Greek " lekithos " , which means " yolk of an egg, " the primary commercial source of lecithin comes from the soybean. The richest sources of lecithin in the diet tend to be the ones that are also the highest in fat and cholesterol, such as eggs, dairy products, and meats. Fruits and vegetables are generally very low in lecithin. Sesame seeds are a rich source of lecithin and essential fatty acids. Lecithin is also good for skin disorders such as psoriasis and excema.
