Liposomal Vitamin C · Biocare | 150 ml

Why we chose this

Standard vitamin C tablets deliver ascorbic acid to your digestive tract — and the body can only absorb so much at once before the excess is flushed out. Biocare's liposomal format wraps vitamin C inside phospholipid spheres (liposomes) made from sunflower lecithin, the same class of phospholipids found naturally in cell membranes. The result is a liquid vitamin C that is gentle on the digestive tract, easy to take, and suitable for those who want a higher daily dose without the gastrointestinal discomfort that standard high-dose vitamin C can cause. 1000 mg per serving. No tablets. No unnecessary additives. Natural lime flavour.

Frequently asked questions

What is liposomal vitamin C and how does it differ from standard vitamin C? Standard vitamin C supplements deliver ascorbic acid or sodium ascorbate directly to the digestive tract, where absorption is limited by the capacity of intestinal transport channels. Liposomal vitamin C encapsulates the ascorbate inside phospholipid spheres — liposomes — that protect it from digestive breakdown. This format allows a higher dose to be taken in liquid form and is gentler on the digestive tract than high-dose standard vitamin C. It is also well suited to people with digestive sensitivities or absorption difficulties.

What is phosphatidylcholine and where does it come from in this product? Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a phospholipid — a type of fat molecule that forms the structural backbone of all cell membranes in the body. In this formula, PC is derived from sunflower lecithin, not soy. It acts as the shell of the liposome that encapsulates the vitamin C. PC also plays a role in normal lipid metabolism and liver function as a natural component of cell membranes.

Is this product soya-free? Yes. The phosphatidylcholine in this formula is derived from sunflower lecithin, not soy. Many liposomal supplements use soy-derived lecithin. Biocare specifically uses sunflower lecithin, making this product suitable for people avoiding soya.

Is this product suitable for vegans? Yes. Biocare Liposomal Vitamin C is fully vegan and vegetarian, and free from gluten, dairy and soya.

How many servings are in one bottle? One 150 ml bottle provides 30 servings at the recommended dose of 5 ml per day — one month's supply.
