Collagen and Skin Health Support
Collagen is a vital protein in the body, often associated with healthy, youthful-looking skin. Collagen plays a role in maintaining skin firmness and elasticity.
While collagen supplements are popular, vitamin C is an essential nutrient that supports your body’s natural collagen production. Vitamin C is necessary for the synthesis of collagen, which is important for maintaining healthy skin.
By ensuring adequate vitamin C intake, you help your body produce collagen, which may contribute to skin strength, elasticity, and protection from environmental factors like sun exposure. Several studies suggest that vitamin C plays a role in promoting healthy skin and protecting against UV-related damage [4].
Beyond its impact on skin, collagen is a key component of connective tissues, including bones, tendons, and ligaments. Vitamin C’s support for collagen production may help maintain the health of these tissues, and research indicates that adequate vitamin C intake may help prevent age-related changes in muscle mass, potentially supporting mobility in older adults [5].
The List Goes On…
Vitamin C is involved in several important bodily functions, and research continues to explore its wide range of potential benefits.
Here are a few key areas where vitamin C may play a supportive role:
- Heart Health: Vitamin C may support healthy blood vessels and contribute to maintaining normal blood pressure. It also has antioxidant properties that may help protect against oxidative stress in the arteries [6].
- Digestive and Gut Health: Vitamin C supports the health of the gut lining, helping to maintain gut integrity and nutrient absorption. This may contribute to digestive comfort and overall gut health [7].
- Inflammation Support: Vitamin C’s antioxidant properties may assist in maintaining normal levels of inflammation in the body, which can support joint health and help reduce the risk of inflammation-related conditions [8].
- Stress Management: Vitamin C is involved in supporting a healthy response to stress by playing a role in normal cortisol production. It may help promote relaxation and support mood balance [9][10].
Vitamin C and Bioavailability
Vitamin C supplements are widely available, but their effectiveness can vary based on how well they are absorbed by your body. Bioavailability refers to how much of the nutrient actually reaches your bloodstream and cells.
Traditional vitamin C supplements, like tablets or powders, can be beneficial, but a significant portion of the vitamin C may not be fully absorbed, reducing its effectiveness. In fact, up to 50% of the vitamin C in conventional supplements may not make it to your bloodstream [11].
Manna Liposomal Vitamin C utilizes liposomal delivery technology, which may improve absorption, allowing more of the vitamin C to reach your body and support your health needs more efficiently.
Liposomal vitamin C is encapsulated in tiny lipid (fat) bubbles known as liposomes. These liposomes help protect the vitamin C as it moves through the digestive system, potentially reducing its breakdown by digestive enzymes.
This method may help more vitamin C reach your bloodstream, ensuring that you get the full benefits of this essential nutrient. Research suggests that liposomal vitamin C may result in higher blood levels of vitamin C compared to traditional forms, supporting more efficient nutrient absorption [12].
FAQ: Manna Liposomal Vitamin C
Do you have more questions on liposomes and vitamin C? We’ve got the answers below.
How do you take liposomal vitamin C?
Manna Liposomal Vitamin C comes in a tasty drinkable formula, so you won’t have to deal with any giant, tough-to-swallow tablets. We recommend taking 1 tablespoon every day. You can take it directly from a spoon or mix it into a cool beverage, such as a glass of water. It’s made with real fruit, so it’s a treat to drink. If you have a sensitive tummy, take your daily serving with a meal.
Why are liposomes so important?
Liposomes help your body absorb more vitamin C. Vitamin C needs to travel through your harsh GI tract to your intestines before it can be absorbed into your bloodstream. Without liposomes, not much vitamin C survives the journey. Liposomal encapsulation significantly increases the volume of nutrients reaching their destination.
Can you take liposomal vitamin C with other supplements?
Yes, Manna Liposomal Vitamin C is safe to take as a part of your daily supplement routine. Manna products are formulated to complement one another, so you can take Manna Liposomal Vitamin C with the Manna products you’re already using. You can even mix them together in a smoothie or a glass of water.
Are there any risks or side effects of taking liposomal vitamin C?
All vitamin C supplements come with a small risk of digestive issues, such as an upset stomach. Liposomal vitamin C may cause similar issues, but due to its protective lipid layer, it is generally gentler on the stomach than vitamin C pills.
Vitamin C can interact with certain medications, such as statins and blood thinners, so talk to your doctor before taking vitamin C if you are on medication.
