Phosphatidylcholine in VH Life: what it is and what we may say
VH Life contains phosphatidylcholine from sunflower lecithin, named on the box in its other actives complex without an individual amount. No health claim for phosphatidylcholine is authorised on the GB register, so VH Life makes none. Phosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid, a fat that carries choline, found in egg yolk, soya and sunflower lecithin. It is the source of VH Life's declared choline (35mg per sachet).

How much is in a VH Life sachet?
The box names phosphatidylcholine from sunflower lecithin in the other actives complex. The box prints amounts for its 26 vitamins and minerals; the botanicals, mushrooms, amino acids, enzymes and live cultures are named without individual amounts, so we do not give one here.
What may VH Life claim for it?
Nothing. In Great Britain a food may only make health claims that are on the GB register, worded as registered. The register holds no authorised claim for this ingredient, so VH Life makes no claim for it and will not describe it as doing anything. Any benefit you may have read about it elsewhere is not something a UK supplement may lawfully say.
Where does VH Life fit?
VH Life is a UK-made food supplement: one 11.8g berry sachet a day in cold water, with 87 active ingredients. The vitamins and minerals carry authorised claims; the other actives, this one included, are there as ingredients, not as claims. On subscription VH Life is £49.99 for 28 sachets every 4 weeks, which works out at £1.79 a day. There is also a 7-day trial (7 sachets, £12.99, one per customer) and one box of 14 sachets for £34.99, with free UK delivery. The full ingredient list is on the product page; every ingredient has its own page on the ingredients index.
