- With rose hips extract and supportive bioflavonoids
- May help support a healthy immune system
- May help support healthy eyes and skin
Liposomal Vitamin C Plus by Seeking Health provides 1000 mg of vitamin C (sourced from Scotland) along with bioflavonoids and rose hips extract in a great-tasting liposomal liquid form. Vitamin C is needed by the body to support the immune system, connective tissue and skin, and to recycle glutathione. In the body, as an antioxidant, Vitamin C may help to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Environmental exposures to free radicals occur every day, from cigarette smoke, air pollution, and ultraviolet light from the sun. Free radicals are also produced as the byproducts of normal metabolic processes. Additionally, the body needs vitamin C to make collagen, a protein required for healthy skin and normal wound healing processes.*
This formula features a synergistic blend of rose hips extract with additional bioflavonoids: quercetin and hesperidin. Bioflavonoids (or simply flavonoids) are a type of compound synthesized by plants, which may be responsible in part for some of the potential benefits of a healthy, plant-rich diet. Compounds in this family may help support a healthy inflammation response, cellular health, and cellular signaling/communication. Rose hips are packed full of beneficial compounds: vitamin C, carotenoids, flavonoids and phenolic compounds. These beneficial compounds found in rose hips and other whole-food sources of vitamin C may help support the antioxidant activity of vitamin C.*
Liposomal Vitamin C Plus uses a unique liposomal delivery method to support optimal absorption of our high-potency vitamin C. A liposome is a tiny phospholipid vesicle that mimics the body's own cell structure. Liposomes may be better absorbed across cell membranes in a way that is not possible for ordinary water-soluble or fat-soluble nutrients. Our liposomes are composed of non-hydrogenated phospholipids, derived from GMO-free sunflower oil. This is a soy free product.*

KEY INGREDIENTS IN LIPOSOMAL VITAMIN C PLUS
- Vitamin C (as sodium ascorbate and ascorbic acid): Supports immune system function, antioxidant and enzyme activity, histamine metabolism via DAO production, collagen production, and mast cell stability.†
- Bioflavonoid blend: Includes quercetin, rose hips, and hesperidin. These antioxidant-like plant compounds support vitamin C utilization. They also support the normal synthesis and release of histamine.†
- Choline (as phosphatidylcholine and choline bitartrate) : Our soy-free blend protects vitamin C through the GI tract. This greatly enhances cellular bioavailability, delivery, and absorption. It can also reduce the GI side effects experienced with some vitamin C supplements.†
WHY LIPOSOMAL VITAMIN C PLUS WORKS
Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin. While many mammals and animals can synthesize their own, humans are missing the last enzyme in the gulonolactone oxidase pathway rendering us unable to make vitamin C. You must obtain this essential vitamin daily from diet or supplements.†
Vitamin C is an essential cofactor for several enzyme reactions in the body. These include synthesizing collagen, carnitine, tyrosine, neurotransmitters, and regulating gene expression.†
Vitamin C is one of the most foundational and well-studied nutrients for its antioxidant and immune health properties. As an antioxidant, vitamin C has potent reducing capabilities. By readily donating its electrons, vitamin C quenches free radicals such as hydroxyl and superoxide radicals, known to contribute to many disease states. It also works with other antioxidants to create a stronger, synergistic antioxidative effect. For example, it has been shown that vitamin C enhances tocopherol (vitamin E) activity as a co-antioxidant.†
As a cofactor, vitamin C also helps maintain healthy histamine levels by supporting histamine metabolism, DAO production, and mast cell stabilization.†
Histamine is stored in and released from mast cells. Once released, histamine is metabolized by enzymes that include diamine oxidase (DAO). However, DAO activity can be reduced or slowed, allowing histamine to accumulate in the body. This can be caused by inflammatory factors or genetic variations. Slowed DAO enzymes can lead to high histamine levels, histamine sensitivity, or histamine intolerance. The histamine pathway and many others can be explored in the StrateGene® Report.†
Vitamin C can help normalize histamine levels through several mechanisms. It has been shown to support the slower release of histamine from mast cell storage. It also supports healthy DAO production, which supports your ability to break down histamine. Vitamin C can also inhibit histidine decarboxylase, the enzyme that forms histamine from histidine.†
The histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) enzyme converts histamine into N-methylhistamine, which can be toxic in high amounts. The monoamine oxidase enzymes, MAOA and MAOB, help to metabolize N-methylhistamine to reduce its levels. Vitamin C helps to increase MAOA and MAOB enzyme activity. This further supports the breakdown of histamine and its byproducts.†
Liposomal Vitamin C Plus provides a bioavailable, liposomal form of vitamin C. Vitamin C is prone to destruction from stomach acid, digestive enzymes, intestinal microbes, and oxidative damage. This unique formula protects vitamin C by encasing it inside lipid droplets called liposomes.†
Liposomes are tiny phospholipid vesicles that mimic our own cell membranes. In essence, these liposomes shield vitamin C from digestive processes. It can then be absorbed by cells fully intact.†
Liposomal Vitamin C greatly enhances:†
- Bioavailability
- Protection
- Absorption
- Cellular update
- Utilization
Many liposomal formulas are derived from soy. Liposomal Vitamin C Plus utilizes a soy-free liposomal delivery system. This protects the fragile vitamin through your GI tract to enhance delivery to your cells.†
Liposomal Vitamin C Plus features a synergistic blend of rose hip extract and the bioflavonoids quercetin and hesperidin. Bioflavonoids (flavonoids) are a type of compound synthesized by plants. They are thought to contribute to some of the health benefits of a plant-rich diet. Bioflavonoids support healthy inflammation responses, cellular health, and cellular signaling/communication.†
Rose hip extract is packed full of beneficial compounds: natural vitamin C, carotenoids, flavonoids, and other phenolic compounds. The beneficial compounds found in rose hip extract, quercetin, and hesperidin enhance vitamin C’s action while providing synergistic benefits.†
Liposomal Vitamin C Plus supports optimal vitamin C absorption and utilization. This enhances vitamin C’s ability to support healthy oxidative stress responses, antioxidant function, histamine balance, mast cell stability, and so much more.†
