Up to 233% greater vitamin C retention in the human body
Vitamin C remains in the cells for 24 hours or longer. Rather than being rapidly excreted by the kidneys after entering the bloodstream, it stays within the cells, helping to deliver sustained benefits without placing unnecessary strain on the excretory system.
12% more effective antioxidant delivery into cells
40% faster wound healing through fibroblast activity
12 times or greater effectiveness in stimulating neurons and supporting nerve tissue regeneration
These findings represent interpretations of some clinical studies comparing PureWay-C® with other forms of vitamin C.
Liposomal PureWay-C® = Liposomal Technology + PureWay-C®
Liposomal PureWay-C® is a patented, premium form of vitamin C that combines two methods designed to enhance bioavailability:
- lipid metabolites used in PureWay-C® technology;
- liposomal encapsulation.
Vitamin C is widely recognised as an essential micronutrient for health. It performs a wide range of functions in the body, including:
- contributing to normal collagen formation;
- protecting cells from oxidative stress;
- supporting the normal function of the immune system;
- contributing to the normal function of blood vessels;
- and much more.
Modern technologies aim to make the delivery of ascorbic acid into the body more efficient and physiologically compatible. Products that combine a bioavailable liposomal form of vitamin C with a citrus bioflavonoid complex are particularly promising in this respect.
What Are Liposomes?
In liposomal formulations, ascorbic acid molecules are enclosed within liposomes: microscopic spheres made from phospholipids similar to those found in cell membranes.
This structure helps protect vitamin C from rapid breakdown in the gastrointestinal tract and supports more efficient transport through the intestine.
According to several studies, liposomal vitamin C may offer greater bioavailability than conventional ascorbic acid, particularly when taken in higher doses. It may also be better tolerated by people with a sensitive gastrointestinal system.
Citrus Bioflavonoids: Vitamin C’s Natural Partners
In nature, vitamin C is rarely found in isolation. Oranges, lemons, grapefruit and other citrus fruits rich in vitamin C also contain a range of polyphenolic compounds known as bioflavonoids, including:
- hesperidin;
- narirutin;
- eriocitrin;
- naringin;
- and others.
These compounds provide natural antioxidant protection for vitamin C, which is highly susceptible to oxidation.
In the human body, bioflavonoids also perform a variety of beneficial functions. They may:
- help neutralise free radicals;
- reduce the effects of oxidative stress;
- reduce the activity of certain matrix metalloproteinases, enzymes involved in collagen breakdown;
- support the normal condition of blood vessel walls;
- support endothelial function — the function of the thin layer of cells lining the inside of blood vessels.
Vitamin C and bioflavonoids can therefore be regarded as complementary components of a unified antioxidant system. Different molecules work synergistically to enhance one another’s effects and help protect cells and tissues from damage caused by reactive oxygen species.
Taking vitamin C together with bioflavonoids is considered more physiologically appropriate than taking isolated ascorbic acid alone.
Fatty Acids: A New Level of Vitamin C Bioavailability
Vitamin C Liposomal by Sanatur is an innovative vitamin supplement featuring advanced Liposomal PureWay-C® technology.
In this formulation, vitamin C is not only enclosed within liposomes but is also combined with plant-derived fatty acids that:
- interact with cell membranes;
- support the transport of vitamin C;
- increase its retention within the cells.
Each vegan capsule provides:
- 200 mg of vitamin C
- 4 mg of citrus bioflavonoids
Liposomal technology supports the gentle and efficient delivery of vitamin C, while plant-derived polyphenols enhance antioxidant protection and support connective tissue health and the normal function of the vascular system.
