Vitamin C is an essential nutrient, meaning it is not produced by the body and must be consumed in the diet to maintain health.†
It is found in many fruits and vegetables and is well known for its activity as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by unstable molecules called free radicals.† (1)
Research has demonstrated that Vitamin C helps boost the immune system, supports the healing process, and offers cardioprotective effects. †
Studies in humans have shown that liposomal Vitamin C is absorbed more effectively than standard Vitamin C:
- In a trial with overweight or obese adults, intravenous (IV) vitamin C had the highest bioavailability, followed by oral liposomal, and then standard oral vitamin C.† (7)
- Another study showed that liposomal Vitamin C was 1.77 times more bioavailable than standard Vitamin C. † (8)
The bioavailability of Vitamin C decreases as the dosage increases. This means the higher the dose you take, the less effectively Vitamin C is absorbed and available for use in the body. (9) To address this issue, LIPO Vitamin C uses an advanced liposomal delivery system designed to improve the bioavailability of each natural compound, created for better absorption, and a slower release into the bloodstream.
