Issues with Liquid Liposomes on the Market include3:
• Liquid liposomes are the most popular delivery method
• Particles clump together to form larger and larger particle size
- Why? They are the easiest to make
- Makes product thermodynamically unstable
- Decomposes active and inactive/inert ingredients (phospholipids)
• Particles clump together to form larger and larger particle size
- Liquid liposomes reported to grow from 100nm size to 3000nm over a 30-day period4
- Larger particle size means less bioavailable
- Larger size also means increased potential for side-effects
Most liposomal product particle size on the market is 100-300nm, whereas LIPOTABs are 60-130nm in size, which obviously increases their absorption and clinical effects.
