AlphaZomalโ„ข Vitamin C is liposomal vitamin C for enhanced absorption and utilisation. Each two-capsule daily dose supplies 600 mg of vitamin C as L-ascorbic acid, in a form designed to get past the limits of ordinary vitamin C absorption. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums and teeth, to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

The advantage of liposomal-form nutrients is that they are held inside a double phospholipid layer — the material of our own cell membranes — so they are absorbed more efficiently. Over 90% of the vitamin C in this supplement is in liposomal form. No heat, high pressure, solvents, freeze drying or spray drying are used in production, so the nutrients reach you clean and intact.

AlphaZomal Vitamin C contains:

  • Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid), 300 mg per capsule: The natural, biologically active form of vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, including during and after intense physical exercise; to the protection of cells from oxidative stress; to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums and teeth; to normal energy-yielding metabolism; to normal functioning of the nervous system and normal psychological function; to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E; to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue; and it increases iron absorption.
  • Phospholipids (from sunflower and palm oil), 130 mg per capsule: The liposome material itself, the same phosphatidylcholine-rich lipids that make up our own cell membranes.

No added sugar, no flavourings, no preservatives. Soya-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan.

Directions: As a food supplement, take 2 capsules a day with water, preferably at mealtimes, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.

For everyday immune and antioxidant support, AlphaZomalโ„ข Vitamin C offers the vitamin in a form that is absorbed efficiently and is gentle on the stomach, without the sugar and flavourings of the liquid liposomal products.

AlphaZomalโ„ข Vitamin C solves a problem that most people never realise they have with vitamin C. Ordinary ascorbic acid is absorbed in the small intestine by a dedicated transport system, and that system saturates: at doses of a few hundred milligrams most of the vitamin is taken up, but as the dose rises the proportion absorbed falls steeply, and by a gram or more the greater part passes straight through, drawing water with it. Taking more, in other words, gives diminishing returns and an unsettled stomach. Liposomal vitamin C bypasses the transporter altogether; the phospholipid spheres are taken up by the gut wall as fat is, so absorption no longer depends on a saturable carrier, and a moderate dose achieves what a much larger ordinary dose cannot.

The AlphaZomal formula is a dry liposomal powder in a capsule rather than the more familiar liquid. Liquid liposomal vitamin C has a strong, unpleasant taste that has to be masked with sweeteners and flavourings, and it deteriorates quickly once opened. The powder form needs none of that: the capsule contains only vitamin C and phospholipids, it tastes of nothing, and it keeps for three years from manufacture.

The capsules may be opened and the contents stirred into food or a cold drink for anyone who prefers not to swallow capsules. The product is supplied in an amber glass jar to protect the contents from light.
