Product Description:
Empirical Labs Liposomal Glutathione
Liposomes have long been used by nature to deliver life sustaining nutrition via mothers milk and now through modern scientific innovation, by pharmaceutical companies, to deliver various active ingredients. Empirical Labs has mastered liposomal technology using natural Phosphatidylcholine liposomes as a delivery method for Glutathione.
We believe that each and every component of our products must be as health building as possible. Nothing unncessary is added, nothing essential is omitted. Current literature has shown that hydrogenated liposomes strongly increased LDL (bad) cholesterol levels while natural non-hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine was shown not to alter cholesterol levels in primates. Our choice was easy. We are currently the only company to use all natural non-hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine for our delivery system with a claim put right on the label!
Our Liposome's Composition:
1. Consists of ingredients that are all-natural
2. Consistently uniform liposomes (at 150nm particle size)
3. Robust 500 mg glutathione per serving
4. 400 mg all-natural phosphatidylcholine per serving
(not hydroxylated, hydrogenated, or "essential" phospholipids)
5. 30 servings per bottle of LIPOSOMAL GLUTATHIONE
6. Scientifically studied structure reveals efficacy
7. Scientifically studied liposomal delivery method ensures usability
Our LIPOSOMAL GLUTATHIONE contains the following:
1. Glutathione (nutrition)
2. Natural phosphatidylcholine (delivery method and nutrition)
3. Purified water
4. Natural flavors and preservative
Our Liposome's structure ensures deliverability:
Due to the high manufacturing standards we employ, delicate care in our process ensures properly structured spherical liposomes in our product. If the structure is is present, they are not suitable for deliverability, therefore they are not liposomes.

Empirical Labs Liposomal Delivery System Study
Vitamin C taken in amounts greater than 500 mg is much less absorbed and amounts greater than 2000 mg can lead to bowel and stomach irritability. This presents a hurdle when large doses are desired. In this study, subject took 5 g of vitamin C. No complaints of any discomfort was reported for the Empirical Labs Liposomal Vitamin C while discomfort was reported for 5 g of powdered Vitamin C.
The plot below represents blood serum levels of vitamin C as a function of time after the subjects ingested a single 5 g dose of vitamin C. The dotted line reflects ingestion of powdered sodium ascorbate vs. the solid line, reflecting ingestion of Empirical Labs Liposomal vitamin C. Note that the concentration maximum and area under the curve are significantly greater in the liposomal form of sodium ascorbate. (No claims implied.)
