Poor Exitium! Really!! The later posts on this topic should be moved over to the lypo section but for now here we are!!

On some of these posts about Liposomes. You mention bioavailability taking 2 hours and the liver breaking down liposomes and having higher blood levels or slower delivery and on and on.
Like the commercial where the elder lady puts pictures on the wall of her house and the other lady says “That’s not how this works, That’s not how any of this works!” Is what comes to mind when I read some of these posts.
First, Low bioavailability is one of the advantages of liposome delivery! Why because it delivers it’s contents directly to the cells where it attaches to the cell and as it’s digested into the cell or tissue directly! If serum levels increase it’s because the encapsulation FAILED and released it’s contents prematurely, before it attached to the cells or tissue. Granted there will be some residual elevation in the readings but this is due to failure to make it completely into the vehicle or the vehicle was not proper and dissolved in serum.
The liver does not deal with fresh lipo’s for the same reason cholesterol continues to circulate in the blood. Only when the lipids have been digested or attached to another vehicle does the liver take them back in for processing.
Think LP(a) or HDL!
Anyway here’s some links to get you more familiar with how these work. I hope it helps in your understanding.

I can break this down to an analogy for clarity if you feel you need a little better understanding. Right now I have to run! Let me know??
