I stopped by one of our local health food stores this afternoon...saw lecithin for the 1st time...of course, the clerk tried to sell me a bottle...

She said that lecithin helped to "break up" fat in the body...if this is true, how would I take it as a supplement (found some info online that suggests it as a supplement)??? Would it do me any good???

I currently take the following supps per day...

L-carnitine - 500mg
CoQ10 - 400mg
Chromium Picolinate - 200mg
Basic Multi

Are the mg's I'm taking too low???

Any help would be appreciated.

Everything you ever wanted to know about lethicin (http://www.supplementwatch.com/supatoz/supplement.asp?supplementId=182) - you can also find the other supplements listed above at supplementwatch.com as well. It's a great resource for this type of information.
