Liposomes

Liposomes are microscopic sized spheres of phospholipid

molecules enclosing nutrients, such as our Vitamin C or

Glutathione

2
New cards

Structure of Liposomes:

Liposomes are composed of phospholipids,

mirroring the lipids in cell membranes, enabling them to fuse with

biological membranes.

3
New cards

Encapsulation of Nutrients (liposomes)

Nutrients are encapsulated within the

aqueous core or lipid bilayers of liposomes, shielding them from

degradation in the gastrointestinal tract.

4
New cards

Improved Bioavailability: (liposomes

Liposomes enhance nutrient bioavailability

by protecting them from enzymatic breakdown and facilitating their

direct absorption into cells.

5
New cards

Stability and Protection: liposomes

Liposomes stabilize encapsulated nutrients,

safeguarding them against degradation from pH changes, enzymes, or

oxidation, thus preserving their efficacy.

6
New cards

Higher Bioavailability liposomes

Enclosing nutrients in a liposome allows the active ingredients to

pass through the digestive system and into the bloodstream

providing up to 90% bioavailability.
