Liposomes
What are Liposomes?
Liposomes are bilayer (double-layer), liquid-filled bubbles made from phospholipids. Over 50 years ago, researchers discovered that these spheres could be filled with nutrients and used to protect and deliver these agents into the body and even into specific cells of the body.
The bilayer structure of liposomes is nearly identical to the bilayer construction of the cell membranes that surround each of the cells in the human body. This occurs because of the unique composition of phospholipids. The phosphate (source of "phospho" in phospholipid) head of phospholipids is hydrophilic — it loves water — whereas the fatty-acid tails (lipids) are hydrophobic — they hate water.
When phospholipids find themselves in a water-based solution, the hydrophobic tails quickly move to distance themselves from the liquid just like oil separates from vinegar. So, as all the tails turn inward and all the heads turn toward the liquid, they form a double-layered membrane.
The Importance of True Bioavailability
Bioavailability starts when a nutrient passes from the digestive system into the bloodstream. Absorption into the bloodstream, however, is only a partial measure of the body’s ability to benefit from a nutrient.
True bioavailability is the degree to which a substance (such as a nutrient) becomes available to the target molecular site after administration. For substances like vitamin C and glutathione, the target molecular site is typically inside the cell, and not just inside the bloodstream.
How do Nutrients Enter the Bloodstream?
The process of uptake from the digestive system varies greatly from nutrient to nutrient. Vitamin C is absorbed almost exclusively in the small intestine and requires the presence of transport proteins. For vitamin C, these transport proteins are called sodium-dependent vitamin C co-transporters (SVCTs). A lack of these proteins produces a corresponding lack of vitamin C uptake. Published research confirms that SVCTs (transport proteins) tightly regulate vitamin C absorption.
In one study with non-liposome-encapsulated vitamin C, 19 mg of a 20 mg oral dose entered the bloodstream. As the dose size increased beyond 30 mg, the blood level of vitamin C decreased drastically. They reported that a dose of 12,000 mg produced a maximum absorption of 16% into the bloodstream - That’s less than 2,000 mg!
A study by the National Institutes of Health reveals an even more restrictive control of non-liposome-encapsulated vitamin C uptake. It found that a maximum of 200 mg of non-liposome-encapsulated vitamin C is absorbed at any given time. What happens to all of the non-absorbed vitamin C? It moves into the colon where it is excreted. For some individuals, an excess of vitamin C in the colon causes several unpleasant symptoms, including cramps and diarrhea.
What's the Best Way to Deliver Nutrients Into The Cells?
Once vitamin C enters the bloodstream, an active transport process is needed for the nutrient to move across any cellular membrane. This process can be just as restrictive as the one that initially limited the nutrient's entrance into the bloodstream. Much of the vitamin C that is not actively transported into the cells will be filtered out by the kidneys and passed in the urine.
Liposome encapsulation overcomes the absorption barriers and cellular uptake restrictions because liposomes do not rely on SVCTs or any other carrier transport system. Instead, due to their size and composition, they are able to passively absorb through the intestinal wall and through cellular membranes. As a result, liposome-encapsulated nutrients (like Lypo-Spheric™ Vitamin C) achieve maximum bioavailability in the cells, where they are needed most.

Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient for many body systems. It's required for proper neurological function and DNA synthesis. Together with folate, vitamin B12 helps in the formation of red blood cell and the maintenance of normal homocysteine levels, thereby supporting heart health.
Vitamin B12 is present in foods of animal origin, including dairy products and eggs. Thus, vegetarians are more prone to a deficiency of this important nutrient. In addition, older adults, and those with reduced levels of stomach acidity have difficulty absorbing vitamin B12 from dietary sources. As a result, vitamin B12 deficiency is common.

Methyl Charge+™ (50 ml 1 Liquid 2 per serving)
A second-generation methylation formula for balanced methyl cycle. For you, if you are looking for supporting methylation, a critical process that happens in all body cells.
The active ingredients in Methyl Charge+™can:
- Support an optimal level of methylation and provide help for undermethylators
- Support detoxification, DNA repair, mitochondrial function, and cellular regeneration
- Designed to be paired with NAD+ boosting formulas to promote balanced NAD+ and methylation cycles
- This second-generation formula promotes a balanced methyl cycle that supports different body functions. Such as nervous and cardiovascular system activity as well as energy production, heavy metal detoxification, and hormone balance
Health Benefits at a Glance:
Methylation is a biochemical process that, when optimal, has a positive impact on your overall health as it´s involved in the regulation of our cardiovascular, neurological, reproductive, detoxification, systems. Boosting NAD+ through supplementation has become a valued aspect of a healthy aging protocol, however, the need for methyl groups increases in response to NAD+ production. Pairing Methyl Charge+ with your NAD+ boosting supplement will ensure that NAD+ and methylation cycles are fully supported and balanced for optimum health.
Why it Works:
This liposomal blend includes vitamins B2, B6, methyl B-12, TMG, and folate to support the methylation cycle which in turn supports NAD+ and glutathione production, detoxification, DNA repair. Methyl Charge+™ also addresses the needs of undermethylators with its thoughtful blend of four key B vitamins. While this new formulation can be a stand-alone supplement to safely increase methylation dynamics in undermethylators, it was originally developed to pair with our NAD+ Gold™ product to keep the wheels of the methylation and NAD+ cycles turning for optimum energy and health.
The Science Behind the Product:
Methyl Charge+™ represents a second-generation methylation formulation, focusing on the catalytic activity of methyltranferases, a large class of important enzymes that activate the transfer of methyl groups and thus modify DNA and gene expression. First-generation methylation supplements focused solely on raising 5-MTHF, the naturally-occurring, active form of folic acid, to counter methylation issues arising from variations in the MTHFR gene. Unfortunately, imbalanced supplementation with only pro-methylation compounds often resulted in short-term benefits which ultimately gave way to a “crash” that is now understood to be mitochondrial dysfunction in response to low NAD+ production.
