Does anyone have any experence with Phosphatidylcholine?

I have taken small amounts before as part of another supplement. Here is the only thing that makes me nervous:

http://europepmc.org/abstract/MED/9627331
"PET imaging of prostate cancer using carbon-11-choline"

"Recently, 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy has revealed that the tumor, in general, is characterized by an increased uptake of choline into the cell to meet increased synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, an important cell membrane phospholipid."

I'd like to talk to someone pointy-headed about this someday...

Hi Guys,
Just stumbled upon this post ..
Has there been any updates on phosphatidylcholine causing prostate cancer or not?

The reason I ask is I just started taking a Soy-Free Lecithin supplement and that's suppose to be a source for phosphatidylcholine,
I am starting to see some minor benefits (a bit stronger erections in the morning and increase in semen volume) but I didn't know
it can cause cancer... Jeez, just when I found something with no immediate side effects!

Wait. I did not mean to say it caused cancer and have never seen a researcher saying the same. Again, just passing along information. A similar example is chondroitin which they found built up in certain cancer tissues. Does that mean chondroitin causes cancer? No, not necessarily.

If you have the time to reseach this, I'd love to know what you find...

I will keep you posted if I find anything further on this.
Thanks PeakT
