Health Concerns

8ml once daily with food. T J Clark’s catalyzed vitamin C is a pure form of ascorbic acid with the addition of a proprietary blend of mineral compounds. The addition of these mineral compounds may promote a greater production of ascorbate lactone derivatives, providing greater tissue availability and higher retention of ascorbate than other vitamin C products.  The use of these mineral compounds also serves to replace valuable electrolytes including, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. Product code: 755875000166 Cautions
Although oxalic acid is formed when ascorbic acid is metabolized, this is highly unlikely to cause renal problems in healthy individuals without pre-existing renal problems or who are not predisposed to increased crystal aggregation.
Those with pre-existing kidney stone disease or a history of renal insufficiency, defined as serum creatine greater than 2 and/or creatinine clearance less than 30, should exercise caution in the use of higher than RDA amounts of vitamin C.
Ascorbic acid is involved in modulating iron absorption and transport. It is highly unlikely that healthy individuals who take supplemental vitamin C will have any problem with iron overload. However, those with hemochromatosis, thalassemia, sideroblastic anaemia, sickle cell anaemia and erythrocyte G6PD deficiency might have such a problem if they use large amounts of vitamin C.
Drug Interactions
Aluminium-containing antacids: The intake of large doses of vitamin C used at the same time as aluminium-containing antacids has been reported to increase urinary aluminium excretion, suggesting increased aluminium absorption from these antacids. However, this is not well documented.
Aspirin: Chronic use of high dose aspirin may lead to impaired vitamin C status.
Chemotherapeutic agents: Vitamin C may potentiate the anti-neoplastic activity of cisplatin, doxorubicin and paclitaxel. It may also help ameliorate the cardio toxic effect of doxorubicin and the nephrotoxic effect of cisplatin. This is based on in vitro and animal studies. There is a concern by some researchers that supplemental doses of vitamin C may diminish the efficacy of some chemotherapeutic agents.
Estrogen: Ascorbic acid may enhance 17 beta-estradiol inhibition of oxidized LDL formation. Ingredients

Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C is a special form of vitamin C that encapsulates vitamin C in tiny ‘fatty’ bubbles known as liposomes, providing a delivery mechanism for the vitamin C. To make stable nano liposomes Livon Labs use high grade essential phospholipids which are extracted from lecithin.

Each 1,000 mg sachet of Vitamin C is made with 1,000 mgs of phospholipids of which 500 mgs is pure phosphatidylcholine. This combination is the key to  Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C’s delivery mechanism. Phosphatidylcholine is in many ways as important as the vitamin C because it’s not made in the body and it works to support the integrity of healthy cell membranes.  In addition to using Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C as daily supplement to provide an optimal daily dose of this important vitamin, New Zealanders can take  Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C when travelling abroad by air or sea to support their immune defences while away from home, when going into hospital and when they come out to support immunity, a healthy recovery and normal healing, to support a healthy response to stress.  Animals that make their own vitamin C can make significantly more in response to stress. When humans are stressed, they are not able to make any vitamin C. and to support healthy glowing skin and the integrity of healthy arteries blood vessels and cartilage.

Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C is committed to supporting the wellbeing of New Zealanders and it comes with an unconditional satisfaction guarantee. Product code: 858514001002 Cautions

Contains 36 serves: Take 5mL once or twice daily before food. Children: Take half the adult dose Radiance Liposomal Vitamin C is coated with phospholipids which are substances similar to cell membranes, these little spheres are called liposomes (also known as nanoparticles). Liposomal vitamin C is packaged like a bodily cell so it is protected as it passes through the digestive barrier and then is able to easily deliver the vitamin C directly to the bloodstream and the cells where it is needed.

People must obtain vitamin C through dietary intake, as unlike most of our fellow mammals, we cannot produce it. This is unfortunate as we have relatively high needs which can increase substantially in response to illness, stress and injury, in fact a 70kg goat produces around 13,000mg when not under stress and many times this when under stress!*

Though the dietary absorption of vitamin C is dose dependent, meaning that the more you take in one dose, the less you will absorb. For example vitamin C absorption has been shown to be effective from 30-150mg but after this dosage range, absorption rapidly declines. With many health professionals recommending doses well above 2000mg a day this can mean that most of the vitamin C is not absorbed into the cells, where it is needed. Other forms of vitamin C, such as ascorbic acid, can also cause diarrhoea which is not only uncomfortable but can also result in even lower absorption.

This liposome technology means that it has a much higher absorption rate, with over 90% of vitamin C taken being delivered to the cells. Liposomal delivery is also shown to avoid the usual diarrhoea thresholds of ‘normal’ vitamin C, so you can take larger doses without discomfort. Liposomal vitamin C also contributes the benefits of phosphatidylcholine, which has well documented actions including supporting brain function, memory, digestive and liver health.
