Moisturizer: Lecithin
Lecithin is a fatlike substance called a phospholipid and is important
in skin care as its presence in the body ensures that every cell is
hydrated. It is a key building block of cell membranes as without it,
they would harden. It is composed mostly of B vitamins, phosphoric
acid, choline, linoleic acid, and inositol. Lecithin protects cells
from oxidation and largely comprises the protective sheaths surrounding
the brain.
It is commercially available as a food supplement and for medical uses.
It is usually isolated from egg yolk or soy beans. As a food supplement
lecithin is well tolerated as lecithin can be totally metabolized. It
is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for human
consumption.
Besides being a fatty substance, lecithin is also a fat emulsifier or
lubricator and is used commercially in industries ranging from
pharmaceuticals to protective coverings. It is used as a non-toxic
surfactant (wetting agent that allows easy spreading) stabilizer, and
water-binding agent in cosmetics and topical anti-inflammatory creams.
The base of lecithin includes different molecular groups. There is the
compound of phosphor and fat molecular groups, and also two
pro-vitamins from the group B, inositol and choline. Fat acids inside
the fat molecular group belong to those compounds that are most often
called vitamin F.
The presence of phosphor in lecithin is important as phosphor is an
important component of every cell in humans and this element
essentially affects and controls the right development of cells. The
shortage of phosphor results in stunting in growth, deformations, and
the dying of cells. One of the factors that have been proved to cause
ageing and deformation of the skin is the shortage of phosphor. Vitamin
F, which is present in lecithin, affects the fat in the skin by
changing their structure. It affects skin regenerative factors,
protects the skin from negative external influences, and makes it more
beautiful and young-looking.
The molecular group of choline, present in phospho-lipid of lecithin is
said to stimulate the work of nervous threads and by doing that it
informs the whole system about the condition in the skin. Choline is a
molecule that tides and cleans inside the cells. It means choline helps
in removing poison, excessive medicines, and dangerous products of
metabolism from skin cells. It also has an anti-stress effect on the
skin cells. The molecular group of inositol, which is inside the
molecule of phospho-lipid lecithin, has a similar effect like choline.
This pro-vitamin from the group B is also food for the nervous threads
of the skin and has an anti-stress effect. It is also considered to be
an important anti-irritant, anti-allergen, and to have a direct
protective effect on the skin.
