Liposomes were discovered in 1965 by Bangham and they are tiny little spherical vesicles with a bilayer structure made of phosphatidyl lipids. The unique lipid-based bilayer structure renders liposomes the best vehicle to deliver both hydrophilic (water-liking) and hydrophobic (water-fearing) nutrients directly into cells in body.
Liposomes are made of food-grade phosphatidyl lipids such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserines, phosphatidylglycerol and etc., derived from sunflower, soy or egg yolk. Liposomes are safe as they are naturally occurring as major components of cell membranes in the human body.
Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin known as poorly absorbed by the human body. It is recommended to take vitamin D3 with food in order to enhance its absorption. Liposome technology offers many benefits over typical oral supplements:
- Protects vitamin D3 from the harsh environment of the GI tract;
- Enhance vitamin D3 absorption and bioavailability;
- Deliver vitamin D3 into cells where it is needed the most;
- Continuously release vitamin D3 over an extended period of time.
Vitamin D deficiency is very common. In US, 41% of adults in the United States are vitamin D deficient and 30% is vitamin D insufficient. Vitamin D and vitamin K work synergistically as a perfect pair with various benefit to the body. Many factors can affect your ability to get sufficient amount vitamin D and Vitamin K2:
- Being in an area with high pollution;
- Using sunscreen;
- Spending more time indoors;
- Inadequate sun exposure;
- Having darker skin;
- Routinely taking anticoagulants;
- Vegans or vegetarians;
- Older adults who produce vitamin D and absorb vitamin K2 less efficiently.
