What makes LipoVantage Different?

Specnova is the only company that provides patent-pending DualHydrogel® technology, a secondary layer that shields the liposome. This layer is made from non-GMO gum arabic, protein peptides or brown algae-derived polysaccharides.

DualHydrogel Technology:
• Protects and strengthens the liposome’s structure
• Increases stability during the digestive and metabolic processes
• Maximizes the amount of actives reaching the bloodstream
• Offers superior stability in the stomach and permeability in the
small intestine
• Yields a stable powder for easy blending, encapsulation and
formulation with minimal taste and odor
• Offers improved water stability, even for fat-soluble ingredients

Ashwagandha intake linked to memory and attention benefits Acute and repeated supplementation with liposomal ashwagandha may boost select cognitive effects, including memory, attention, vigilance and reaction time in healthy adults, says a new study.

TruLiposome® Validation is a mark of trust proving our liposomal ingredients have passed rigorous testing standards that validate their integrity as true liposomes. There are 6 different tests that every batch of Specnova's LipoVantage® liposomes must pass:

The 1st test is identification with a Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscope (CryoTEM). With this test, the liposome is rapidly frozen to preserve the liposomal structure. The microscope, magnifying the image 10,000-20,000 times, looks inside the liposome to see the layers. The images below show two different types of liposomes as seen under a CrycoTEM, both show true liposomes.

Stay tuned for our next post about the 2nd type of test that is performed: Encapsulation Efficiency!

Thank you Organic & Natural Health Association for featuring us! Performance of an ingredient is important and bioavailability is part of what makes an ingredient perform at its best! Research shows that LipoVantage liposomal ingredients have better bioavailability and stability in the body, which helps them perform better.
