Liposomal Vitamin C

The key difference is bioavailability and absorption. Traditional vitamin C, whether encapsulated, in powder form, or as a non-liposomal liquid, has limited absorption and may cause digestive discomfort at high doses. Liposomal Vitamin C, encapsulated in phospholipids, enhances absorption, allowing more vitamin C to reach cells for greater effectiveness with fewer side effects.

With our Liposomal Vitamin C, the same way you would take any other capsule! Pop two caps in your mouth and swallow with water. Just make sure you’re well hydrated so that the liposomal particles can reach their full potential.

You can take BodyBio Liposomal Vitamin C at any time, although vitamin C does give some people an energy boost, so maybe not right before bed. Otherwise, take it with or without food, daily or as needed for immune or neurotransmitter support.

Use Liposomal Vitamin C for daily support and/or in times of acute stress on the body, such as coming down with a cold or flu. Take 2 capsules per day with or without food, or use as directed by your Healthcare Professional. 2000 mg is the tolerable upper limit for most and can be used as a therapeutic dose. Our Liposomal C dosage can be increased without gastric distress and we recommend speaking to your doctor about higher doses.

Vitamin C is well known for causing gastrointestinal distress when taken in high doses. However, Liposomal Vitamin C minimizes this risk due to rapid absorption by the body. Though unlikely, Liposomal Vitamin C may initiate a Herxheimer reaction—flu-like symptoms that can occur when the body begins to rapidly detoxify and the elimination systems become overwhelmed with the sudden toxic burden released from the tissues. If this occurs, simply cut back on your dosage or stop altogether until you recover. As always, consult with a Healthcare Professional if you have a reaction or concern using Liposomal Vitamin C.

One capsule Liposomal Vitamin C provides 500 mg Vitamin C, which is 556% DV for ages 4+. While limited studies have shown benefits to liposomal forms of specific vitamins and minerals, this also means that the Vitamin C content is much higher than the FDA’s recommended daily value. We do not recommend for children under 6.
