My own personal choice is to use soya lecithin granules, which supply phosphatidylcholine, and other phosphatides as well. It's really cheap at health food stores. Just smell some before you buy it. If it smells rancid, get some somewhere else. Mildly nutty flavour, but it does stick in the teeth a bit. Up to ten teaspoons a day, but I use two.
