Our journey to greater vitality.
There are countless ways to develop micronutrient supplements – we've chosen a better one.
The market for vitamins, minerals and plant compounds is huge – but we are setting new standards. Instead of simply supplying active ingredients, we make sure they are optimally absorbed by the body.
Our solution: liposomes.
‘Liposomes are revolutionising the bioavailability of micronutrients. This innovative technology offers a clear advantage over conventional dosage forms.’
Structure
Liposomes are tiny vesicles made of phospholipids – the same building blocks that make up the cell membranes in our body. Cell membranes are responsible for transporting substances into and out of the cell.
Liposomal technology makes use of this structure by packaging nutrients such as vitamins, minerals or plant-based active ingredients in a shell. The term "liposomal" therefore refers to the encapsulation of active ingredients in a protective shell containing phospholipids.
Protection in the digestive tract
Liposomes offer a crucial advantage in the digestive tract: they protect sensitive nutrients from being broken down in the stomach and intestines. The phospholipid-based shell forms a stable barrier that keeps the active ingredients intact until they reach the intestinal wall.
This is why liposomal technology is an effective way of delivering nutrients and medicines into the body in a targeted way, with nothing lost in transit.
Increased cellular uptake
Once they reach their destination, the liposomes fuse directly with the cells thanks to their structure, which is similar to that of the cell membrane. This allows the nutrients to be released in a targeted way.
Liposomal technology ensures that substances are absorbed faster, more effectively and more gently. This significantly increases bioavailability.
