Smart Guide to Supplements: Your Vitamin Cheat Sheet

An older woman and man are jogging together outdoors on a bridge, both dressed in athletic wear and appearing cheerful.

You’re not alone if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the supplement aisle. Adaptogens, nootropics, Ájurvéda—brands use big words like these, and they all claim to be the key to wellness. But what does your body really need? And which vitamins actually work?

There’s a ton of scientific research that explains the benefits of each essential nutrient. Research also tells us the best forms of these nutrients to take and how to effectively deliver them where they’re needed. 

So, supplements don’t have to be confusing. If you have a health goal in mind (stronger immunity, clearer skin, etc.), you can find the right nutrient that supports it.  

At Manna, our scientists spend their days digging into the latest research to formulate the most effective science-backed supplements. They’ve put together this vitamin cheat sheet to help you understand which supplements contribute to your specific health goals. 

It’s 100% science-backed and hype-free, so you can learn to choose supplements that actually help you feel better.

Read First: What Science Says about Liposomal Vitamins

Manna believes that supplements should be based on science—not marketing. And the science is clear that no matter which supplements you take, liposomal delivery offers superior absorption [1]. 

Ok, that was a lot of big words. Let’s break down liposomal delivery.   

Your body can’t automatically use the nutrients in supplements. First, they need to be absorbed into your bloodstream via your intestines. 

Supplements must have a way to deliver this nutrition where it’s needed. This is called a delivery method. 

Traditional delivery methods, such as water-soluble capsules, tend to offer poor bioavailability. Much of the nutrition may be destroyed during digestion before you can absorb it. Or, it might be hard for your cells to utilize.

Liposomal delivery increases nutrient absorption by up to 10 times. It wraps each microscopic nutrient in a little fat bubble. This bubble protects the nutrient as it passes through your digestive tract and ushers it more easily into cell membranes, where your body can use it. 

So, liposomal delivery helps you absorb more of the good stuff every time you take supplements. That’s why at Manna, every product we make uses liposomal delivery. 

Choosing liposomal vitamins should be the first box you tick on your vitamin cheat sheet.
