How liposomes work and their benefits

Liposomal Vitamin C is an advanced pharmaceutical form of Vitamin C, which is complexed with soy-derived lipid structures, better known as liposomes .

Liposomes are molecules consisting of a hydrophilic portion and a lipophilic portion that are organized in spherical formations that contain Vitamin C within them; in fact, liposomes are organized showing the lipophilic component on the outside, that is, akin to cell membranes, while the hydrophilic component remains inside in close contact and affinity with Vitamin C.

At the intestinal level, the liposomal complexes are conveyed, like lipids, into the lymphatic circulation (instead of into the bloodstream), thus skipping the metabolism and the first passage in the liver, which can determine a significant inactivation.

Effectiveness of liposomal Vitamin C versus standard Vitamin C

Vitamin C is usually administered orally in crystalline form or as an aqueous solution, which makes it susceptible to degradation in the gastrointestinal tract.

Liposomes, as mentioned, reduce the degradation of Vitamin C, slow down its release, improve its absorption and slow down its renal expulsion.

In the study conducted by Lukawski and colleagues in 2019, serum Vitamin C concentration profiles in healthy volunteers were compared after single oral administration of liposomal Vitamin C and standard Vitamin C. The study was conducted on 20 volunteers (10 women and 10 men aged between 31 and 65).

Each participant was equipped with a peripheral venous catheter, which allowed for multiple blood draws within the time frame of the study. Each participant was given a single dose of 10 g of Vitamin C, in free form and in liposomal form, dissolved / suspended in 250 ml of water. After administration of Vitamin C, blood samples were taken at 30 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min, 180 min, 240 min and 360 min.

In summary, a higher concentration of Vitamin C in the blood for a longer period of time makes liposomal Vitamin C more effectively available to the body's cells than the standard crystalline form of Vitamin C.
