Known Nutrition's Advanced Collagen Supplement combines 5g of Hydrolysed Marine Collagen with 7 additional active ingredients, to give you a superpowered beauty supplement that is scientifically proven to support firmer skin, thicker hair and stronger nails.
Their expertly designed formula uses their expertly developed Liposomal Technology to ensure your body absorbs as much of the supplement as possible.
Liposomal technology allows for 98% absorption as opposed to many other supplement forms which can have an absorption rate as low as 15%.
Liposomal vitamins don’t use capsules or tablets to deliver nutrients to the body. Instead, the vitamins are encapsulated in pockets of fat called ‘Liposomes’ (hence the name).
Liposomes are nano-sized fat bubbles that protect the integrity of the ingredients and allow them to quickly pass through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream.
From here, they attach to cells and then be delivered to where they are most needed within your body (which basically means you don’t just end up ‘peeing’ them out).
WHAT ACTUALLY IS A LIPOSOMAL?
Putting it simply, these fat cells are made up of the same stuff as your skin cells. Meaning your body is able to recognise and absorb them much more effectively than vitamins that are coated in a synthetic material or compound.
For context, most vitamins are coated in these types of synthetic coating, so if you’ve ever taken a vitamin in your life - it’s probably been encapsulated in one of these.
Each sachet of our Advanced Collagen Supplement contains 250mg of Lipoid H50, which equates to millions of Liposomes!
SO, WHAT PART OF THE SUPPLEMENT IS COATED IN LIPOSOMES?
Okay, here’s the good bit.
We only really want to encapsulate vitamins in Lipo that are hard for your body to absorb. That’s why we specifically chose to coat the Vitamin C element of the formula in Liposomes.
Here’s why…
Vitamin C generally has a low absorption rate. But (now here’s the good bit), we included it in our formula because, when absorbed effectively, it’s an expert at accelerating the Collagen Synthesis process within the body.
Let us explain…
Our Liposomal formulation allows your body to absorb 85% of the Vitamin C content, whereas most tablets and capsules only allow you to absorb around 15%.
Not only that, but when you combine Vitamin C with a 5g dose of Collagen, it helps your body to absorb both the Collagen and the Vitamin C more effectively.
Simply put, encapsulating Vitamin C in Liposomes and combining it with a dose of Collagen supports a faster, more effective delivery of both of the key nutrients - helping your body reap more of the benefits more quickly.
