What are liposomals?
Liposomals are “a revolution in nutrient delivery.” The foods and supplements we consume go through a long process in our digestive tract. The harsh digestive environment may not allow our bodies to reap all the benefits of what goes in. Enter liposomals.
Liposomals are nano-sized spherical containers or vesicles that carry and transport nutrients directly to our cells and tissues.
Our cell membranes are the outermost layer of a cell, and their function is to protect the cell from its surrounding environment. These membranes are semi-permeable and help keep the bad stuff out while letting the good stuff in.
Cell membranes are made up of phospholipids, which have a double layer. These double-layered membranes provide a strong barrier to molecules that move in and out of the cell. Small molecules can easily pass the membrane whereby larger ones need the help of a transporter protein to enter the cell.
How can supplements help?
CanPrev Liposomal supplements have multiple layers of liposomes and as each layer is peeled away, nutrients are released over a longer period, so a dose can last an entire day.
Unlike fat-soluble vitamins like Vitamin A,D,E and K, which are best absorbed with food, and iron, which should be taken on an empty stomach for best absorption, liposomes are absorbable on their own and can be taken with or without food.
For those with digestive issues, liposomal products are easily absorbed and remain whole until they are absorbed directly through the intestinal walls.
There are over 100 premium natural health products on the market to help people maintain optimal health. Stop by the store located at 152 Holland Street E. to find out which products would be suitable for your personal health needs or visit them online.
