	Liposomal supplements are easier for the body to absorb, and allow more of the active ingredient to reach the target area.		There is currently little protection on marketing a product as ‘liposomal’, thus there are many false products - these are usually a blend of the nutrient and a fat complex, rather than the nutrient being coated in the fat complex.

			‘True’ liposomal powders are expensive compared to their base nutrient, there is no ‘cheaper option’ on the market unless you want to use a false product.

			Our current options are products from LipoCellTech, and the Lehvoss Liposomal PureWay C®.

			Liposomal supplements are easier for the body to absorb, and allow more of the active ingredient to reach the target area as it is protected by a fat-like coating. Of course, this is dependent on the active ingredient. For example, L-Glutathione is not stable in aqueous solutions (which is required to form the liposome barrier), and as such Liposomal Glutathione is not recommended.

	The active ingredient is ‘micro-encapsulated’ inside miniscule fat-like particles called phospholipids, thereby protecting it, allowing it to better survive the digestive process and enter the intestines. This means that there is a greater uptake of the active ingredient within cells, rather than just the blood stream – this results in a greater efficacy of treatment.

The liposome is then used in the body, meaning there are no ‘waste’ ingredients – unlike many supplements that require an inert carrier.

			Liposomal supplements were first only available in liquid form - the fat-like particles are evenly dispersed within the aqueous solvent. Removing the water from this solution is a specialised process that is likely to damage the phospholipid layer coating the nutrient if not done correctly. As such, there are many false products on the market - usually these are just the desired nutrient mixed with a fat complex to make a powder blend, but this is not a true liposomal supplement. Real liposomal supplements are expensive compared to their base nutrient, as there is a complex process to have the nutrient be encapsulated by the liposome.

Liposomal supplements are easier for the body to absorb, and allow more of the active ingredient to reach the target area.

The active ingredient is ‘micro-encapsulated’ inside miniscule fat-like particles called phospholipids, thereby protecting it, allowing it to better survive the digestive process and enter the intestines. This means that there is a greater uptake of the active ingredient within cells, rather than just the blood stream – this results in a greater efficacy of treatment.

The liposome encapsulating the active ingredient is made up of the same phospholipids as our cell membranes, thus the body ‘recognises’ the supplement as its own material, leading to greater absorption rates. The liposome is then used in the body, meaning there are no ‘waste’ ingredients – unlike many supplements that require an inert carrier.

This form of supplement is rather expensive compared to the typical ingredients.
