Phospholipids are substances that are not synthesized in the body and are obtained exclusively from the outside. Moreover, they are important for the body no less than amino acids.
Essentiale N uses natural phospholipids derived from soybeans. The high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in soy makes the phospholipids isolated from it especially useful. Once in the human body with the drug, they help to restore receptor connections in liver cells, "triggering" their renewal.
Also, phospholipids:
    They inhibit the formation of connective tissues in the hepatic ducts.
    Reduces the risk of gallbladder sand and stones.
