Liposomal Ashwagandha

Why should I think about taking an Ashwagandha supplement?

Ashwagandha is a herb that has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine. The herb is considered an adaptogen. This means the active principles present in the herb help the body to adapt to changes and maintain balance. It is gentle on the body and can be used short or long term.

Absorption.

Using liposomal technology, we can help the body more easily absorb many compounds. We have created this supplement with liposomal ashwagandha and liposomal vitamin C to help the body more readily absorb and utilise the supplement.

The body can only absorb so much of a nutrient at one time, we need to take small amounts and take them often. You often hear people speak of high dose supplements producing ‘expensive urine.’ What isn’t absorbed, is flushed out of the body.

Up until recently, this has been the case with many high strength supplements. It was hard to get the right amount into the body and to the cells where it can be utilised. Liposomal technology is changing all this!

By putting the Ashwagandha and vitamin C into a liposomal form allows it to be easily absorbed and get to the sites in the body where it can be fully utilised. It presents us with a revolution in the way our bodies can use this ingredients.

What is a liposome?

A liposome is a tiny bubble that protects the nutrients inside a protective membrane. The big advantage is that they are similar in structure to your own cell membranes. They have bi-layers (two layers) of phospholipid molecules that enclose the nutrient and protect it from the harsh environment of the digestive tract. The liposomes then carry the nutrient into the cell where it can be used effectively.

The liposomal delivery system protects the vitamin C from damage and degradation once it enters the digestive tract. This results in a much higher level of bioavailability than and regular vitamin C supplement.

Digestion.

Liposomal supplements are also less irritating on the digestive system than. So for those that find they get intestinal discomfort from taking higher strength tablets, they will find that liposomal supplement more suitable.

First class delivery.

In short, putting a nutrient or herb into a liposomal form is like wrapping up a parcel for safe delivery. It is taking the compound through the harsh digestive tract and allowing the body to deliver it to the cell where it can then be used effectively by the cells.
