From the same producers of PureWay-C® and as part of our branded ingredients range, LEHVOSS Nutrition are pleased to offer the new Liposomal PureWay-C®, which delivers true Liposomal Vitamin C, mixed with the same proprietary fatty acid formula from the scientifically proven PureWay-C® standard grade.

With a great discrepancy in Liposomal throughout the industry, it is important to search for a high quality and efficacious liposomal vitamin C. PureWay-C® Liposomes are microscopic, hollow spherical vesicles composed of a lipid bilayer, which are ready to be recognised by the body’s gastrointestinal system. This stimulates the absorption of PureWay-C® and once in the blood, PureWay-C®’s proprietary fatty acids formula increases uptake kinetics and retention on a cellular level.

The material is available in different bulk weights and particle sizes (from 2.5 to 250 µm) and has very good palatability. It is dispersible, easily compressible, free flowing, low in HM (heavy metals) and safely sourced with full pharma documentation. Suitable for vegetarians & vegans and Kosher & Halal certified, the material is in a granular form, which makes it suitable for tabletting. It is widely used in antacid formulas to help relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and an upset stomach.

Calcium is one of the most important and essential minerals for the human body which helps form and maintain healthy teeth and bones. It also helps the body with blood clotting, keeping a normal heartbeat, transmission of signals in nerve cells, and muscle contraction. Calcium benefits from various EFSA claims, but its use for preventing osteoporosis is probably the most well-known role in food supplements.

A new research review published in the journal Advances in Nutrition in March showed positive effects of plant-based, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) for heart health.

In a comprehensive review of the scientific literature, researchers from universities and institutions in the U.S. and Spain found that increasing ALA in the diet, which is found in plant-based foods like chia, walnuts, and flaxseeds, was associated with a 10% lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 20% reduced risk of fatal coronary heart disease.

The researchers considered and analysed quality randomized controlled trials (RCTs) as well as observational studies that evaluated the consumption levels and effects of ALA on heart disease risk factors like inflammation, blood pressure, overall risk and risk of death from heart disease.

PureSea®, gold-standard sustainable seaweed has benefits nutritionally for beauty-from-within, thanks to the natural source of nutrition that it provides. This centres on iodine – a nutrient which is essential for many aspects of health, including optimising the condition of hair, skin and nails. A diet deficient in iodine can lead to an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), common symptoms of which include hair loss, dry skin and brittle hair and nails. Let’s take a look at this into more detail:

Hair: When thyroid hormone levels are low, the rate at which hair grows can be reduced and even stop completely. Therefore, it is unsurprising that many people who have suffered from iodine deficiency disorders have also experienced hair loss. In fact, in a study of 700 participants, it was found that 30% of those that presented with low thyroid hormone levels had experienced some form of hair loss.¹
