Couldn't find any more. Could be just mis-naming, or they really used ascorbic acid. Interesting they say for best absorption in the small intestine don't open the capsule for taking its content in juice. While they actually also have a more expensive liquid version (which curiously specifies containing both: ascorbic acid and sodium ascorbate). But with the liquid more expensive product they don't mention inferior absorption again?!? Just:
What is the difference between the softgels and liquid vitamin C?
The liquid liposomal Vitamin C works faster than the softgels because the softgels have to open which delays onset. The liquid also has more phospholipids (PC Complex), 500 mg versus the 350 mg of the softgels. The PC complex has its own very therapeutic and nutritional effect could potentially help in lowering cholesterol, aiding in cardiovascular health, enhancing focus and alertness and balancing the autonomic nervous system. Liquid vitamin C is flavored and has an orange-citrus taste that some people find quite pleasant, but others do not like it or want to avoid because of sensitivity to stevia and fructose. Note, the liquid also has to be refrigerated after opening.
The higher PC content explains the higher price though.
If that is the case can one assume that one can take 2.5 lyposomol of this form rather than take 5g of AA non lyposomol
I actually think it possible this company doesn't provides real liposomal, just an emulsion which aids in absorption a bid too. Reason being they're using much less PC, especially in the cheaper capsules, than any other liposomal ascorbate seen. Also the curious disadvise not to open capsules: That's really the first I would do, because if it's real liposomal all ascorbic acid is encapsulated, and no acidity could be tasted at all.
I could be wrong though. The only thing sure I can say that we don't have a study comparing ascorbic acid with liposomal ascorbic acid, therefore anything is just speculation at this point.
Not all is lost. Experimenting with different products usually does expose advantage or drawbacks.
For example in my case during rhinitis season with a sneezing-fit a teaspoon of ascorbic acid within 5-10 minutes quits it. Bud sodium ascorbate doesn't. Therefore if you do have any symptoms immatiately alleviated with ascorbic acid, try if this liposmal works just as well. And then decrease doses to learn the difference.
