i had a question about liposomal vitamins so  let’s just talk about exactly what it is and  

the pros and cons pros it can greatly increase  your absorption by a factor of four to nine  

times now liposomal vitamins are vitamins that  are packaged in these tiny little nano size  

liposomes now liposomes is a spherical or round  sac of a phospholipid molecule enclosing something  

like a vitamin they can also do it with drugs as  well and the purpose is to carry it deeper inside  

the body there are three different sizes of this  liposome the larger size which is like 500 to 5000  

the medium size which should be 200 to 800 and  the real small size which should be 20 to 150  

which is the highest quality so  the smaller size the higher quality  

and if you’re going to do liposomal vitamins  i would make sure it’s verified by a lab  

using laser dynamic light scattering technique  okay because if you don’t have it certified  

chances are you’re not getting the most quality  particle size you’re going to get larger sized  

particles which are lower quality and they’re not  going to absorb nearly as much now the con is that  

if you’re getting the higher quality one it’s  very expensive that’s one drawback second  

drawback is that your own macrophages which  are immune cells that eat different things  

they tend to break down these they tend to compete  so they can dismantle some of this nutrient  

but i think the biggest con is that a lot of  times companies use synthetic vitamins so here  

you are you have this amazing delivery system  to drive in nutrition but what are you driving  

in the body a synthetic vitamin especially  when you see the liposomal vitamin c that  

is using ascorbic acid which is usually from gmo  corn and even if it does have the l attached to  

it which is the natural version of ascorbic acid  you’re still just getting one little tiny part of  

the vitamin c complex you’re not getting the whole  complex you’re getting one little piece of this  

whole very complex structure and a lot of times  they’ll use it for the b vitamins which again  

they’re mostly synthetic so you’d want  to make sure that they’re not synthetic  

and so you’d want to call the company and ask for  the source material what do they make it out of  

and then you might say well it’s just natural well  you want to know what is the source and they they  

won’t be able to tell you if it’s synthetic a lot  of times they’ll use b12 which again is synthetic  

and then vitamin e it might be natural so if it  is natural or they’re using a turmeric for example  

like an herb that would be fine but anytime you’re  using synthetic vitamins or fractionated parts of  

a vitamin complex even if it’s natural i  personally don’t recommend it all right hope that  

clarified what it is thanks for watching before  you go if you have a question about a product
