We put our Liposomal+ technology to the test in a university-led double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study (the gold standard for clinical studies). We wanted to compare our Liposomal+ Vitamin C to ordinary vitamin C to prove how much more absorbent our Liposomal+ technology is.
Study set-up
A group of men and women aged 55+ participated. Each subject was their own control— trying a placebo, regular vitamin C dissolved in water and our Lipsomal+ Vitamin C.
Study structure
Every two weeks, each subject took either our Lipsomal+ Vitamin C, a vitamin C tablet dissolved in water or a placebo. Immediately after administration and then once every hour, each subject's blood was drawn and tested for the concentration of vitamin C levels.
The results
Our Liposomal+ Vitamin C showed faster absorption, significantly greater absorption (exceeding theoretical amounts of vitamin C that you can get form oral ingestion), and stayed in the blood for a longer time, over regular vitamin C.
