Unlocking the Power of Liposomal Technology with BIOBERX

At BIOBERX, we stand at the intersection of nature's finest ingredients and cutting-edge technology, and our passion lies in merging these two realms to create exceptionally effective liposomal food supplements.

Introducing Liposomes

Imagine liposomes as tiny lipid vesicles crafted from the very same substance found in our cell membranes. The magic of liposomal technology lies in its ability to encapsulate both fat-soluble and water-soluble vital substances, such as vitamins. When these active ingredients are encapsulated with liposomal technology, they seamlessly integrate into the human organism. Remarkably, they are not recognized as foreign bodies, allowing them to effortlessly enter the bloodstream without any loss.

This encapsulation process enables complete absorption by the intestinal and digestive tract, fusing harmoniously with our cell membranes. These liposomes act as a protective shield, facilitating rapid nutrient absorption while shielding against gastric acid or enzymatic degradation. With BIOBERX's liposomal products, you can achieve unparalleled bioavailability and efficacy, surpassing traditional food supplements.

Understanding Bioavailability

Bioavailability, from a scientific perspective, quantifies the portion of a nutrient that our bodies actually absorb and incorporate into the bloodstream after consumption. Vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds interact differently within our bodies, influenced by factors like age and intestinal health. Rather than flooding your system with excessive nutrient doses, prioritizing quality over quantity is key.

To fully harness the benefits of nutrients, we require natural and pure active substances that seamlessly align with our body's own enzymes. Thanks to the encapsulation of nutrients in liposomes, these vital substances swiftly traverse the intestines, arriving directly in the bloodstream, fully accessible to the body.

BIOBERX's liposomal technology offers a gateway to optimal nutrient utilization, ensuring that natural, pure active substances reach their full potential within your body. Experience the difference that our liposomal products can make in enhancing your well-being.

 

Scientifically Proven: Enhanced Absorption with Liposomal Delivery.

 

Glutathione Bioavailability Study

Glutathione, a natural antioxidant present in the body, plays a vital role in reducing cellular damage, mitigating inflammation, and benefiting the skin. However, as we age, the natural concentration of glutathione decreases, making supplementation common.

Study Objectives

The objective of this study was to assess the absorption of liposomal glutathione compared to non-liposomal (standard) glutathione supplements over seven consecutive days of administration.

Method

This study followed a two-group, randomized controlled trial design: 

Group A: Received a daily dose of 500mg of liposomal glutathione for seven consecutive days.

Group B: Received a daily dose of 500mg of standard glutathione for seven consecutive days.

Participants

 Twenty healthy participants, aged between 20-50 years, without chronic medical conditions, acute illnesses, within the normal BMI range (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), and not regular users of drugs or dietary supplements were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to Group A (liposomal supplementation) or Group B (standard supplementation).

Blood Sampling

Participants received their respective glutathione dosages each morning while fasting for seven days. Blood samples were collected at Baseline (Day 0), Day 3, and Day 7. Serum analysis assessed the levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) to determine supplement absorption.

Results

The study revealed that liposomal glutathione supplementation exhibited superior bioavailability compared to non-liposomal supplementation.

• In the Liposomal Glutathione group, GSH concentration in the blood significantly increased from Baseline to Day 3 and further from Day 3 to Day 7.
• Conversely, there were no notable increases in GSH concentration within the non-liposomal group during the seven-day period.
• BIOBERX Liposomal Glutathione demonstrated 64 times greater bioavailability than the standard Glutathione supplement.

Key Takeaways

• Glutathione, a potent endogenous antioxidant, faces challenges in terms of bioavailability.
• BIOBERX Liposomal Glutathione supplements outperform standard Glutathione supplements, exhibiting 64 times greater bioavailability over seven days.
• Liposomal Glutathione supplementation maintains a consistently higher blood GSH concentration compared to the standard supplement over time.

 

Glutathione: The Mighty Molecule with a Significant Role

Glutathione, often referred to as the master antioxidant, is a crucial and highly potent endogenous antioxidant present in nearly all human cells. Its reduced form, GSH, serves as a potent redox buffer, shielding our DNA, cell lipids, and proteins from the damaging effects of free radicals and peroxides, which can harm cell structures and disrupt metabolic processes.

Detoxification

Glutathione also plays a pivotal role in biotransformation, binding non-excretable substances and rendering them water-soluble for elimination through the kidneys. This detoxification process includes the removal of xenobiotics (synthetic compounds foreign to the body, like pesticides and pharmaceuticals) and heavy metals [2]. Despite the body's natural production of glutathione, maintaining healthy levels can be challenging due to adverse environmental factors.

A Radical Scavenger as a Health Indicator

Assessing the body's oxidative stress level can be achieved by analyzing the ratio of reduced (GSH) to oxidized glutathione (GSSG). This ratio is considered a clinical marker to better understand the progression of various diseases. Typically, a 9:1 ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione exists in the human body [3]. However, external toxic influences often tip the balance toward oxidation. Oxidized glutathione must be regenerated by glutathione reductase to function as reduced glutathione. Chronic diseases, such as excretory, digestive, or cardiovascular conditions, are often associated with significantly reduced glutathione levels [4].

Impact on the Aging Process

Age significantly impacts glutathione levels in the body. With age-related declines in self-synthesis, glutathione levels start deteriorating around the age of 45 and drop more rapidly after 60 [5][6]. This decrease in glutathione's protective function can lead to increased oxidative stress, potentially negatively affecting the aging process. Research suggests that glutathione levels in the body have a substantial influence on aging [7].

A study from Denmark underscores this point. Comparing the glutathione levels of individuals aged 60-79 with those aged 100-106, it was discovered that centenarians with better health had higher glutathione levels [8]. While it's unclear whether genetics or environmental factors played the primary role, this highlights the importance of glutathione for health. 

Glutathione for Radiant Skin

Early evidence suggests positive effects of glutathione on human skin. A 12-week randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind study found that even a daily dosage of 250 mg of glutathione led to improved skin elasticity and reduced wrinkles compared to a placebo group [9]. Consequently, experts consider this nutrient a potential anti-aging agent.

Boosting the Immune System

The reduced form of glutathione (GSH) plays a significant role in supporting the immune system. It aids in T-lymphocyte activation and assists white blood cells, which are key in defense against pathogens. Glutathione also contributes to the production of cytokines, facilitating efficient communication among immune cells and strengthening the body's defense system.

Glutathione and its Impact on the Lungs

Glutathione is highly regarded in lung research. The endogenous glutathione system serves as a vital intracellular and extracellular antioxidant that guards against oxidative and nitrosative stress while regulating inflammatory processes in the lungs [10]. Glutathione concentrations in lung mucosal fluid are 50 to 60 times higher than in blood plasma [11]. Inflammatory lung diseases are often characterized by chronic inflammation and an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, a primary cause of cellular damage [12]. 

Cigarette smoke, for example, elevates oxidative stress, prompting the lungs to produce more glutathione initially. However, if the body already faces increased glutathione demand due to environmental factors, the lungs may struggle to maintain this heightened need. Other factors, like bacteria that inhibit glutathione recycling in the lungs, can influence lung function. This bacterium may be a contributing factor to why only around 20 percent of smokers develop COPD [13]. 

Liposomal Glutathione

A single daily dose of 400 mg of BIOBERX liposomal glutathione is equivalent to the amount naturally found in 10 medium-sized avocados!

Glutathione in Food

While the body produces its own glutathione, it is also obtained through food. Dietary sources of glutathione include meat, poultry, fish, fresh fruits, and vegetables. Comparing asparagus, a food rich in glutathione (approximately 28 mg per 100 g), with conventional whole wheat bread (about 1.2 mg per 100 g) illustrates these differences [15]. However, the actual absorption of glutathione from food by the human body remains uncertain, with experts suspecting poor bioavailability, meaning only a small portion is absorbed and active.

Enhancing Glutathione's Effects

Maintaining an adequate protein intake supports new glutathione production in the body. Additionally, consuming cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid can assist in boosting the body's own synthesis of glutathione. Adequate selenium intake further supports enzymatic processes involved in glutathione synthesis.

Glutathione Study

Elderly individuals typically have lower glutathione levels. A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition [16] explored the effect of glutathione building blocks (cysteine and glycine) in the 60 to 75 age group. The study aimed to determine if dietary supplementation with cysteine and glycine could compensate for the increased oxidative stress and decreased glutathione synthesis in older individuals. The result: a 14-day supplementation increased cellular glutathione concentration and reduced oxidative stress!

Effective Intake to Prevent Glutathione Deficiency

Supportive supplementation makes sense only if enough glutathione reaches the body. Traditional supplements, such as capsules and powders, often result in limited absorption and utilization by the body due to glutathione's low bioavailability. To address this, BIOBERX encapsulates the nutrient in liposomes, offering liposomal glutathione with pleasant flavor!

In a clinical study, subjects consumed 500 mg of glutathione daily for seven days. The study demonstrated that blood serum levels increased 63-fold compared to standard products, showcasing liposomal technology's ability to unlock glutathione's full potential without the need for injections!

Glutathione: A Vital Antioxidant

Glutathione, a crucial antioxidant, is naturally produced by the human body. However, studies have revealed that in situations of heightened oxidative stress due to natural aging or external factors like pollution and stress, supplementing with glutathione can be beneficial for maintaining health and vitality. With its promising antioxidant properties, nutritionists often recommend the proactive use of liposomal glutathione to prevent potential glutathione deficiency.
