Therefore, lysolecithins possess the ability to improve the digestion of fats and oils. Raju
et al. (2011) showed an increased fat digestibility by the use of rice bran lysolecithin on broiler feed formulated with rice bran oil. Additionally, Zhang et al. (2011) observed an increased fatty acid digestibility in broilers by the use of soybean lysolecithin on soybean oil, tallow, and poultry fat. The authors postulated that together with bile salts, lysophospholipids act as an emulsifier
within the first stages of fat digestion. Emulsifiers increase the active surface of lipid droplets, a limiting factor in fat digestion
