Description
Using specialised technology, the Liposomal Range provides nutrients in nano-sized vesicles constructed of either a phospholipid bi-layer (for water-soluble nutrients with or without fat-soluble nutrients) or a phospholipid mono-layer (for fat-soluble nutrients. These nano-sized liposome and nano-emulsion structures are readily absorbed via passive absorption across transmucosal membranes, bypassing the digestive system for direct and easier absorption. These specialised phospholipid vehicles fuse with cell membranes to deliver encapsulated compounds intracellularly.
Vitamin D plays a role in a healthy immune system, development, growth and mineralisation of a healthy skeleton and is important for the maintenance of strong healthy bones.
Features:
- Adequate levels of vitamin D are necessary for the maintenance of normal healthy calcium metabolism and a normal healthy immune system.
- Vitamin D plays a role in the development, growth and mineralisation of a healthy skeleton and is important for the maintenance of strong healthy bones.
- Vitamin D is involved in healthy prostate cell differentiation.
- Supplementation may reduce the risk of falls in older adults which in turn may help reduce the risk of fractures.
- Orange flavour.

Prescribing Information:
- There is insufficient evidence regarding the use of liposomal therapy in pregnancy or lactation.
- Mineral oil, orlistat or lipid-lowering drugs such cholestyramine may affect absorption of fat-soluble vitamins including vitamin D. Supplement either one hour prior to, or 4-6 hours after, drug intake.
- Vitamin D may reduce the effectiveness of calcium channel blockers, caution is advised with concurrent use.
- Concomitant use of vitamin D with aluminium may increase aluminium absorption.
- Concurrent use of supplemental vitamin D3 with calcipotriene or thiazide diuretics may theoretically increase the risk of hypercalcaemia.
