Ashwagandha Details

Ashwagandha, scientifically known as Withania somnifera, is commonly referred to as “Indian Winter cherry” or “Indian Ginseng.” †

This herb has been used for thousands of years in traditional systems of medicine in India as a Rasayana, a term pertaining to herbal or metallic preparations that enhance physical and mental well-being, foster a youthful state, and promote happiness.†

Ashwagandha is widely recognized for its role as an adaptogen, which is a natural compound that helps your body adapt to physical and mental stress and maintain a balanced state.†

Studies have shown that the bioavailability (the amount of a compound that reaches circulation to exert effects) of standard Ashwagandha is limited due to rapid metabolism. (2) The oral bioavailability of Withaferin-A, the main component in Ashwagandha was found to be 1.8%, in a study in mice. (2) To address this issue, LIPO Ashwagandha uses an advanced liposomal delivery system designed to improve the bioavailability, created for better absorption, and a slower release into the bloodstream.

LIPO Ashwagandha is a full-spectrum plant-based formula that has been tested to contain 5% or greater Withanolides, the compound most responsible for Ashwagandha’s effects. This is far higher than the KSM-66 strain, known to contain only 1.5% Withanolides. Furthermore, we use only the roots in LIPO Ashwagandha, which avoids Withaferin A, a cytotoxic withanolide.

Learn More About Liposomal Delivery

Liposomes are a revolutionary way of encapsulating active ingredients in a phospholipid “bubble” to protect and deliver them directly to the cells of your tissues, which are reached via the bloodstream. 


This allows for the ingredients to be absorbed and utilized rather than being destroyed in the stomach.

The aim of taking any supplement is to ensure its transport into the bloodstream. However, due to the low absorption and bioavailability rates of traditional oral capsules, active ingredients lose most of their potency while passing through the gastrointestinal tract or are simply not absorbed in the small intestine at all. The majority is excreted unused via the intestines or kidneys. 


Liposomal delivery offers a targeted and complete absorption of active ingredients with a delayed‑release effect, unlike all other nutrient delivery methods. This increased circulation time of key nutrients in the bloodstream significantly improves bioavailability. The higher the bioavailability of an active substance, the more effect it has on the body.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of liposomal delivery? Are liposomes really better?

When taken sublingually, approximately 30% of a 125 mg dose gets absorbed under the tongue, with the remainder being swallowed. At higher dosages, the % goes down, as the capillaries are full and have limited transport.

A much greater % makes it to bloodstream with liposomal delivery. Liposomes also protect the payload from degradation once in the bloodstream.

Lastly, Liposomes release the payload over a much longer period – up to 24 hours. This is better when taking larger dosages.

The rapid delivery to the bloodstream with Sublingual can be an advantage when taking before exercise. The energy surge most users feel is also nice confirmation that it is doing something.

What are the liquid and powdered liposome differences in bioavailability and stability?

Our liquid and powdered liposomes have approximately the same availability in the bloodstream, but the powdered liposomes release the payload more slowly over 24 hours. We don’t know if that makes it more effective than a faster release.

Powdered liposomal products have a shelf life of over two years, rather than the 12 months or so for liquid liposomal products when stored at room temp.

What's the difference between Liposomal vs. Delayed & Extended Release Caps?

Delayed Release & Extended Release Caps protect ingredients from stomach acid only. They delay, but don't really sustain ingredient release.

Liposomes protect the payload through the GI tract and into the bloodstream, then release more slowly up to 24 hours (depending on the liposome).

In addition to a big increase in bioavailability, they are truly sustained release. Any supplement known to have poor bioavailability should use liposomal delivery.

Are any of your liposomal products heat-sensitive?

The liposomal powder capsule products are not heat sensitive.

The liposomal gels however should not be exposed to heat exceeding 115 degrees Fahrenheit for more than a few days. Liposomes break down a bit when exposed to extended periods of high heat.
