Liposomal Iron by HSN: High dosage and quality

Liposomal Iron (LipoCellTech™) (30mg Iron) from EssentialSeries is an iron pyrophosphate formula, a mineral salt of elemental iron, liposomally encapsulated using LipoCellTech™’s patented technology.

Each vegetable capsule contains over 164mg of liposomal iron. However, the actual amount of elemental iron—the form your body absorbs—is 30mg. So there's no need for concern regarding the listed value. The product provides 164.8mg of liposomal iron, of which 115.3mg is ferric pyrophosphate mineral salt (excluding liposomal encapsulation), and from that, 30mg is elemental iron (excluding pyrophosphate).

The highest quality mineral form of iron for optimal absorption.

Maximum absorption and efficiency with LipoCellTech™ Technology

Advanced liposomal encapsulation for optimal absorption

The iron liposomalisation process involves encapsulating this nutrient within a double layer of phospholipids to create liposomes, microscopic structures that protect the active ingredient. Unlike other production methods where the encapsulation rate varies between 10% and 20%, LipoCellTech™’s patented process guarantees an encapsulation rate exceeding 90%—the highest on the market. This exceptional efficiency is achieved through an innovative production system designed to optimise iron integration into the lipid bilayer, ensuring an optimal final product. This high encapsulation level is controlled and confirmed through standardised efficacy tests, which precisely measure the percentage of liposomes present in the final product, assuring you that HSN's liposomal iron is developed to the highest quality standards.

Higher Bioavailability: The iron your body absorbs best

Liposomalisation significantly improves iron absorption due to the protection liposomes provide against the gastrointestinal environment. Encapsulated within a double layer of phospholipids, the iron is shielded from degradation by stomach acids and digestive enzymes, allowing it to reach the small intestine in an active, bioavailable form. Additionally, the liposomal structure enhances interaction with cell membranes, promoting greater iron uptake by the cells where it is needed. This mechanism not only optimises nutrient absorption but also reduces gastric discomfort commonly associated with high-dose traditional iron supplementation by minimising direct contact with the digestive tract.

Optimal protection without degradation

Liposomal iron developed with LipoCellTech™’s patented technology offers optimal protection against degradation thanks to its 'double-layer' encapsulation. This system protects the iron both externally during processing and storage, and internally from stomach acids in the digestive system.

LipoCellTech™ protection not only ensures nutrient stability against degradation factors during storage, such as exposure to oxygen, humidity, or temperature changes, but also prolongs the product’s shelf life by keeping the iron encapsulated and isolated from these external agents. Liposomalisation acts as both a physical and chemical barrier, preventing oxidation or loss of effectiveness before consumption.

Proven results thanks to Liposomal Innovation

Liposomal iron has been shown to be an innovative and superior supplementation option compared to non-liposomal iron due to its high bioavailability and stability, backed by scientific studies such as those conducted by Montagud-Marrahi et al. (2020).

Iron without digestive discomfort: Gentle on the stomach

Liposomal iron, thanks to its liposomal system, offers a gentler experience for the stomach compared to other iron supplements. This benefit stems from the phospholipid structure encapsulating the iron, which acts as a protective barrier. This technology prevents direct contact between iron and the stomach lining, reducing the likelihood of common discomfort associated with conventional iron supplementation.

Additionally, liposomal iron allows for more efficient release in the digestive system, ensuring its passage to the small intestine, where absorption takes place. By minimising direct stomach impact, the product is not only more comfortable to take but also an appealing alternative for those looking to supplement iron daily without experiencing digestive sensitivity to traditional iron supplements.

Packed with benefits: Discover them

Iron is an essential mineral in human nutrition, as the body cannot produce it on its own, making it crucial to obtain through diet or supplementation. This mineral plays fundamental biological roles, being present in various cellular structures and processes. Due to its metabolic importance, iron is a key component for the body, helping maintain balance and functionality in vital systems. Supplementation is especially important for individuals with low iron intake, such as vegans or those who do not consume large amounts of red meat.

No need for Vitamin C for absorption

Thanks to its liposomal technology, liposomal iron does not rely on an acidic environment or Vitamin C for absorption, unlike traditional iron supplements. This is because liposomalisation protects the mineral and transports it directly to the small intestine, where it can be efficiently absorbed. This eliminates the need for specific stomach conditions to facilitate absorption, providing a more practical and accessible supplementation option.

Discover HSN's liposomal vitamins and minerals

In 2024, HSN revolutionised the supplement market by launching liposomal nutrients, an innovation that enhances nutrient protection and bioavailability. This next-generation product range, based on advanced encapsulation technology, has set a new standard in the industry.
