This is its nature, and also its limitation: beyond a certain amount, the body absorbs a decreasing proportion. Designs for Health Liposomal Vitamin C addresses the problem through the delivery vehicle rather than the dosage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003eLiposomes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003e are spheres made of phospholipids, the same molecules that form our cell membranes. This structural similarity is the entire principle behind the technology: a sphere made of the same material as a cell membrane binds to it easily and deposits its cargo. Here, the phospholipids are derived from sunflower lecithin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003eParticle size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003e is where this formula stands out. Designs for Health uses liposomes measuring 50 to 400 nanometers, whereas particles commonly available on the market are typically 200 to 600 nanometers. Some of these liposomes break down at the edge of the enterocytes and release their contents there. The rest are absorbed intact by M cells, specialized epithelial cells located in Peyer's patches, which transport them to the lymphatic circulation. The smallest particles also remain in circulation longer before being eliminated by the liver and spleen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003eSodium ascorbate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR-CA\"\u003e is used instead of ascorbic acid.
