Lemon Essential Oil rinds of Italian lemons Ingredient Spotlight: Soy Lecithin Only two of the items we read contain soy lecithin also known as soy leci thin. A little bit of research leads us to believe the soy lecithin is a byproduct of the soy oil production. According to Chris Kresser: To make soy lecithin, soybean oil is extracted from the raw soybeans using a chemical solvent (usually hexane). Then, the crude soy oil goes through a ‘degumming’ process, wherein water is mixed thoroughly with the soy oil until the lecithin becomes hydrated and separates from the oil. Then, the lecithin is dried and occasionally bleached using hydrogen peroxide. Not entirely sure what any of that means — but I’d wager that anything requiring hexane extraction isn’t the best thing to put in your body. Stay tuned as we start our directory of “ingredients”.
