What it is

Relecithinated soy flour is a modified form of soy flour. It is made by adding lecithin, often soy lecithin, to soy flour and processing it to improve its functionality. Soy flour is derived from soybeans, which are legumes.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add relecithinated soy flour primarily for its emulsifying properties, helping to blend ingredients that don't normally mix, like oil and water. It can also act as a stabilizer and improve texture in baked goods, mixes, and processed foods.

Health notes

Relecithinated soy flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of soy protein and other nutrients found in soybeans. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated soy lecithin, the typical additive, and found it to be safe. No significant health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Soy is one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. Therefore, relecithinated soy flour contains soy and must be declared as such on food labels.
