Liposomal Coenzyme Q10 Powder - 15 g pure powder (Unbeatable price-performance ratio)

Liposomes were first discovered and described in 1964 by a research group at the Babraham Institute led by British hematologist Alec Douglas Bangham[2].

A liposome is a small, artificial vesicle that has a spherical shape and contains at least one lipid bilayer. Due to their hydrophobic and/or hydrophilic properties, biocompatibility and particle size, liposomes are often used as carrier systems for the administration of pharmaceutical agents and nutrients. They can encapsulate both hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules and protect them from degradation until they reach their target[4][5][6].

Function and application

Nutrient transport: Due to their structure, liposomes can protect nutrients and drugs and transport them to specific locations in the body. They survive stomach acid and enable the absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, where they enter the bloodstream and lymphatic system[1].
Medical applications: In medicine, liposomes are used to transport drugs to specific locations in the body, especially tumors. They protect the enclosed active ingredients from enzymatic degradation and premature excretion[3].




The following comparison of the bioavailability of different dosage forms of Q10 shows the superiority of liposomal Q10:
