Most people know vitamin C as a daily essential, but fewer realize how much depends on the way it’s delivered. Traditional liposomal products usually come in liquid form.
⠀
Liquid liposomes can work, but in water they are unstable, prone to clumping, and may lose effectiveness over time. They are also harder to store and less convenient to use in capsules or powders.
⠀
This is where Zeal Technology™ changes the story. 🧑‍🔬
⠀
It is the first liposomal system developed in a stable powder form. Imagine tiny protective spheres built from natural phospholipids, but instead of floating in liquid, they are held in a solid, crystal-like structure. This keeps them uniform in size, resistant to breakdown, and able to survive storage without losing strength.
⠀
For vitamin C, that means more than just numbers in a study. It means:
– The vitamin reaches your bloodstream in higher amounts and stays there longer.
– It is released gradually, giving your immune cells and tissues steady support instead of a quick peak and drop.
– It is easier on the stomach than traditional acidic tablets.
– And because it’s in a dry, stable form, it’s far simpler to handle and keep fresh.
⠀
In short, Zeal Technology™ takes the well-known benefits of liposomal delivery and makes them stronger, more reliable, and more practical for everyday use. With this innovation, vitamin C is not just better absorbed — it works in harmony with the body, right where and when it is needed.

Proper nutrition and vitamins will help support immunity in the fall.
⠀
Vitamins play a significant role in maintaining health, especially in the fall, as it’s prudent to focus on supporting and boosting immunity.
⠀
Just because we ate a lot of fruits and vegetables in the summer does not mean we have stocked up on vitamins for the coming winter.
It’s best to eat seasonally, so to replenish vitamin supplies in the fall, autumnal products suited to your living climate are ideal. It’s best to consume vitamins in their natural form, as fruits and vegetables.
⠀
Ascorbic acid, also known as vitamin C, should be consumed daily, as it isn’t synthesized in the body. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, plays a crucial role in metabolism, in oxidation-reduction reactions, and boosts immunity.
⠀
However, it’s important to note that ascorbic acid breaks down at high temperatures. Seasonal sources of vitamin C include bell peppers, cabbage, rowanberries, rose hips, lemons, oranges, and apples.
⠀
Vitamin D. It is involved in mineral metabolism, is responsible for calcium deposition in bones, and prevents the onset of osteoporosis. The need for this vitamin is fully met by ultraviolet radiation. In the fall, when there isn’t enough sunlight, additional sources of vitamin D are egg yolks and fish.
⠀
Especially halibut, cod, herring, mackerel, and salmon. Dairy products with high vitamin D content are cheese, cottage cheese, and butter.
⠀
Eat correctly, maintain a balanced diet, consume more vitamins, and stay healthy!

Vitamin C is central to human biology: it fuels antioxidant defense, collagen production, and immune cell activity. But there is a practical problem.
⠀
Standard vitamin C has a ceiling.
The body can only absorb a certain amount through the intestine at once. Beyond that, absorption plateaus and the excess is quickly excreted. As a result, even large oral doses create only brief spikes in blood levels, which drop within hours.
⠀
Why does this matter?
⠀
Immune cells such as leukocytes actively concentrate vitamin C. They require a steady supply to function under stress — whether that stress comes from infection, inflammation, or environmental exposure. Short plasma spikes are often not enough to sustain those cellular stores.
⠀
Liposomal vitamin C alters this pattern.
⠀
Encapsulated in microscopic lipid vesicles, it avoids degradation in the gut, enters circulation more efficiently, and is taken up by immune cells in higher amounts. Clinical studies show measurable differences: greater peak levels in blood, longer retention over 24 hours, and higher concentrations inside white blood cells compared with standard vitamin C.
⠀

It’s not about taking more vitamin C. It’s about keeping it where the body needs it, for longer, with less digestive discomfort. This makes liposomal delivery particularly relevant when demands are high — recovery, immune challenge, or chronic stress.

Vitamin C is one of the most essential nutrients for our body — from supporting immunity and collagen production to reducing fatigue and helping iron absorption. But regular vitamin C is fragile: it breaks down quickly in the digestive system and is not always absorbed well.

That’s where the liposomal form makes a difference. Encapsulated in tiny lipid layers, vitamin C is better protected, more stable, and absorbed more efficiently. It stays in the bloodstream longer, delivers consistent levels, and is easier on the stomach.

HMB Calcium: Muscle Protection and Recovery in Action
⠀
When you push your limits in strength training, your muscles face micro-tears and increased protein breakdown. This is a natural part of growth — but without optimal recovery, it can slow progress, limit strength gains, and even cause muscle loss.
⠀
HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) is a natural metabolite of leucine. While leucine is known for triggering muscle protein synthesis, only ~5% of it converts into HMB. Direct supplementation is the efficient way to reach the levels proven to protect muscle tissue.
⠀
Why athletes use HMB Calcium:

• Preserves lean mass during intense training or calorie deficits — protects muscles when energy intake is low or endurance demands are high (PMID: 23876188).
• Reduces muscle damage — lowers markers like plasma creatine phosphokinase and urinary 3-methylhistidine after resistance training (PMID: 8941534).
• Supports hypertrophy and strength — when taken close to workouts, it promotes measurable gains in strength and power (PMID: 23374455).
⠀
Whether you’re in a strength phase, preparing for competition, or training under high-volume loads, HMB Calcium acts as a safeguard — helping you keep what you’ve built while pushing for more.

Vitamin C is more than just an antioxidant.
A 2025 study revealed that it can literally unlock gene activity in the skin.

In human skin models, researchers found that Vitamin C:
✅ Boosts keratinocyte proliferation — the cells that form your outer skin layer
✅ Increases epidermal thickness
✅ Reactivates 12 specific genes related to skin renewal and repair
✅ Does this by removing methylation marks from DNA — a true epigenetic effect
✅ And loses this power when TET enzymes are blocked — confirming it acts at the DNA level

Why does this matter?

Because skin aging isn’t just about wrinkles or dryness.
One of the first things that happens as we age:
– the skin becomes thinner,
– slower to repair,
– less resilient.

This study shows that Vitamin C doesn’t just protect the skin —
it helps the skin remember how to act young again,
by switching on genes that time had silenced.

That’s a big deal. 🔥

🌿 It means Vitamin C might support skin not only from the outside in —
but from the genetic level up.

🧬 Why most vitamin C supplements underdeliver — and what science is doing about it
We talk a lot about getting enough vitamin C.
But the real question is: how much of it actually gets used by your body?
⠀
❗The problem isn’t deficiency. It’s delivery.
Most people assume a daily supplement is enough — but few realize just how fragile vitamin C really is.
It’s incredibly unstable:
☐ breaks down with heat, light, or even just time
☐ oxidizes quickly once ingested
☐ and at higher doses, overwhelms your gut’s ability to absorb it — so most of it gets excreted.
Even worse?
Standard tablets or powders often irritate the stomach, making consistent use difficult for many.
⠀
So even when you’re supplementing... your cells may be running low.
That matters. Because vitamin C isn’t just an immune booster — it’s a cofactor in collagen production, a protector of your DNA, a regulator of iron metabolism, and a key part of antioxidant defense.
⠀
💡 The science of getting it right: Liposomal Vitamin C with Zeal Technology™
Liposomal delivery is designed to protect fragile nutrients — and help them reach the bloodstream intact.
Here’s how it works:
💧 Each vitamin C molecule is wrapped in a tiny sphere made of phospholipids — the same kind of material that makes up your cell membranes.
This structure helps shield the vitamin from stomach acid, digestive enzymes, and oxidation.
It also supports more direct, efficient absorption through intestinal tissue.
⠀
🔬 But not all liposomes are equal. This is where Zeal Technology™ makes a real difference.
Most liposomal supplements are liquid-based — which means they often face problems with stability, consistency, and shelf life. 👇👇👇

🍊 Think your morning O.J. has you covered? Not quite.

A recent NHANES analysis shows that 6-7 % of U.S. adults are still clinically deficient in vitamin C—and the rate doubles in smokers and people with very low fruit-and-veg intake (PMID 36592081).

One reason is physiology, not willpower: human vitamin-C transporters in the gut max out at ≈200 mg per dose. Swallow more and most of the excess goes straight to urine (PMID 8623000).

Beyond “immune support”: three jobs vitamin C quietly handles

1️⃣ Gene-switch housekeeping
Special enzymes called TET dioxygenases need vitamin C as a co-factor to wipe old “methyl” tags off DNA and histones. In muscle-cell experiments, adding physiologic ascorbate doubled myotube formation by letting those genes fire on cue (PMID 39445529). Put simply: C helps keep your genetic software up to date.

2️⃣ Traffic control for ferroptosis
Ferroptosis is an iron-driven form of cell death now linked to neuro-degeneration and cancer therapy. The oxidized cousin of C—dehydroascorbic acid—can push resistant tumour cells over the edge when paired with a ferroptosis trigger, yet reduced C shields healthy cells by feeding antioxidant enzymes (PMID 37752118). In everyday terms: the same molecule can be a brake or an accelerator depending on context.

3️⃣ Delivery tech that bends the curve
Because of that 200 mg ceiling, smarter packaging matters more than megadoses. A 2024 double-blind crossover trial found that a 500 mg liposomal capsule raised peak blood levels by 27 % and kept them elevated all day compared with plain ascorbic acid (PMID 39237620). That’s a bigger payoff from the same milligrams.

Deficiency is still real, gut transport is a bottleneck, and vitamin C is doing high-level tasks—epigenetic tuning and ferroptosis balance—that rely on steady, bioavailable supply. Next time you look at a supplement label, focus on how the C is delivered, not just how much is crammed inside. 😎
