In short, no. Lecithin is a type of fatty substance which occurs in plant and animal tissues. As the name suggests soy lecithin is derived from the soy bean. It is safe for people who have celiac disease to have it. However, people with an allergy to soy should avoid it.

The most different point is the composition of lecithin.

Peanut lecithin contain:

- PC (phosphatidyl choline)=49 %

- PE (phosphatidyl inositol)=16 %

- PI (phosphatidyl ethanolamine)=22 %

Soybean lecithin contain: PC=21 %, PE=22, PI=19 %, PA (phosphatidic acid)=10 %,

PS (phosphatidyl serine)=1 %, Glycolipid=12 %

This is a simple answer.

The chemical composition of lecithin is dependent on the source; soy lecithin and peanut lecithin are not identical.

Yes it does. and both are very bad for you. Scientists have done experiments on lab rats to test this. The first generation was fine after they gave it to them, the second was also fine, but the third was unable to have babies. Scientist figure this will also happen to humans.
