Liposomals
A liposome is a microscopic sphere built from phospholipids, the same type of molecules that form cell membranes. Because it is made from material already found in cell membranes, a liposome is not recognized as something foreign that must first be broken down. It carries its contents through the digestive tract intact, travels into fat-soluble areas that a water-soluble nutrient cannot reach on its own, and delivers what it carries directly into cells by merging with their membranes.
Every liposomal preparation from Zep Tepi Solutions is made by hand in small batches, with no glycerin, fillers, flavorings, preservatives, or synthetic additives. Each formulation is bottled with care to preserve its potency, vitality, and integrity from the laboratory to your daily ritual.
Liposomal Vitamin C is fortified with a Spagyric tincture of organic lemon peel made in the same laboratory. This tincture is included for a specific reason, explained in the questions below.
Liposomal FAQs
Liposomal vitamin C is vitamin C enclosed within microscopic spheres made of phospholipids, the same class of molecules that forms cell membranes.
The absorption of ordinary oral vitamin C decreases sharply as the dose rises because the gut can absorb only a limited amount at one time. Liposomal encapsulation is designed to help address this limitation. The phospholipids help protect the vitamin C as it passes through the digestive tract, carry it into fat-soluble areas it may not otherwise reach, and support its delivery into cells by interacting with their membranes.
The phospholipids used in my formulation come from organic sunflower lecithin.
Ascorbic acid is the only way to provide a known, repeatable, high dose of vitamin C. Whole-food and fruit-based preparations are good things, and I have no argument with them, but they rarely state a milligram amount at all. When they do, the amount is usually small. If what you want is a high, specific, and consistent dose, that route cannot provide it.
The fair objection to ascorbic acid is that it is an isolate. Vitamin C never occurs on its own in nature. In fruit, especially citrus, it arrives surrounded by bioflavonoids, terpenes, and the rest of the plant’s chemistry. That is the form in which the body has always encountered it. Ascorbic acid by itself is that same molecule, stripped of everything it naturally travels with.
The lemon peel Spagyric tincture answers that objection. It carries citrus bioflavonoids and terpenes along with the plant’s own purified Salts, which an ordinary extract discards. I marry the tincture to the ascorbic acid, then ultrasonicate and liposomally encapsulate the two together. What goes into the bottle is one unified preparation, rather than an isolate with a plant extract simply sitting beside it.
The intent of the formulation is to present vitamin C in a form closer to the way it occurs in whole fruit than isolated ascorbic acid alone ever could. To my knowledge, this is the only liposomal vitamin C in the world made this way.
I can't offer medical or personalized dosage advice, but I can share how I work with this myself. The locking pump top dispenses about 2 mL, which is 400 mg of vitamin C. I take two to three pumps a day, straight or in a small amount of water. I shake the bottle well before each use, and wipe the pump nozzle afterward so the vitamin C does not crystallize on it. I start at the lower end and pay attention to how I feel before going higher.
Every Zep Tepi solution is bottled in Miron violet glass, which blocks the visible light that degrades botanical compounds while letting through only the highest violet frequencies, preserving and even enhancing the vitality of the preparation. The glass takes care of the light. Refrigeration takes care of the rest.
Refrigerate liposomal vitamin C as soon as it arrives, keep it sealed between uses, and use it within six months. My Spagyric tinctures keep virtually forever. A liposomal preparation is a more delicate thing than an alcohol extract, and the cold is what holds it together.
