I have a question about this.
It is my understanding that liposomal encapsulation enables the encapsulated
material to bypass processing by the digestive system and enter the blood
stream directly.
I can see how that might be great for some items like ascorbic acid (Vit C)
that are in the pure form that cells can use immediately.
But is it a good thing for any and all supplements?
Don't we need a little discrimination here?

Hi all....
I guess at this point it could be said Brooks has created a monster. :)
After my first several batches of Vit C which continued to separate I
decided to try a different Vit C powder. I came to realize the C I bought at
the health food store had buffers
so I ordered a better C without any additives. While I waited for my C
to arrive I decided to try making liposomal d-ribose. It turned out
perfect!...nice creamy color with absolutely no separation. ah ha...I then felt
sure when my vit C arrived it would turn out exactly as it was supposed to.
My C came today, I made it and it turned out perfect! So far I have
also made liposomal L-Lysine and liposomal Alpha Lipoic Acid which also turned
out perfect! B-Complex and Marine Kelp is next on my list. For some reason I
cannot take iodine so I am hoping liposomal kelp will work for me.
Something else I did differently was to stop blending my lecithin for
as long as I had before...maybe only 10 seconds now. I believe these small
adjustments make a difference. I also process my mixtures for 8 min [4 cycles
in the UC] instead of the 6.
Did I mention turmeric? ha ha
