Why choose liposomal vitamin C over other forms?
Liposomal vitamin C is a form of vitamin C that utilises a special technology known as liposomes – molecules that act as carriers for the active ingredient, helping it to reach its destination intact.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential micronutrient for the body’s health: it has powerful antioxidant properties that protect against the action and damage caused by free radicals, supports and strengthens the immune system, aids in the absorption of iron, promotes the production of collagen – a protein essential for skin elasticity and the proper functioning of bones and cartilage – helps maintain healthy bones and teeth, and contributes to protein metabolism.
The important role of vitamin C should be supported by ensuring the necessary amount is included in the daily diet: Vitamin C is, in fact, a water-soluble vitamin, which means that the body cannot store it and it must be regularly included in the diet or, where necessary, taken as a supplement.
Vitamin C is found in significant quantities in foods such as citrus fruits, tomatoes, certain vegetables such as green cabbage and leafy greens, kiwis and peppers.
A balanced diet should be sufficient to provide the right amount of vitamin C, but, as we shall see later, there are specific conditions in which an increased requirement or malabsorption of this nutrient can lead to a deficiency.
What are the benefits of liposomal vitamin C?
The main benefit of liposomal vitamin C is undoubtedly its greater bioavailability compared with common forms of vitamin C: the purity of the active ingredient ensures better absorption of the product by the body.
Liposomal vitamin C improves the strength and effectiveness of the immune system, contributes to normal collagen production, promotes iron absorption, protects cells from the effects of free radicals and oxidative stress, and boosts well-being and energy levels.
