>soy lecithin
Let's talk about it. I've read it's pretty fucking bad for you and protein powders only use it as a cheap filler. Does your protein powder have it in it? Do you care?

I get whey that is made with sunflower lecithin instead.

Idek why its bad for you, but fuck soy. Dat estrogen paranoia

It's an anti clumping agent listed under "other ingredients" which generally accounts for less than 1% of the total weight of the product.

It's negligible.

they say it's nothing in food, ie. dark chocolate. if it's in your protein powder and you're drinking 2 scoops of it every day, then it's something.
>>
>>37040968
You aren't drinking two scoops of lecithin
>>
>>37040613
fuck you
>>
>>37040987
are you memeing me?
>>37040995
why, my friend?
>>
>>37041012
What the fuck is wrong with you? Your protein powder is 100% soy lecithin? Where is the protein?
>>
Soy lecithin isn't even the same thing as soy. Its a preservative and a binder. Its as harmless as you are retarded.
