Liposomal Iron

Liposomal Iron
Product Description

Liposomal iron isn’t a single, well-defined compound but rather a delivery system for iron. It encapsulates iron molecules within microscopic spheres made of phospholipids, the same fatty molecules that form cell membranes. These spheres, called liposomes, are typically colorless to slightly yellow and range in size from 30-100 nanometers (billionths of a meter). Since liposomes are microscopic, liposomal iron appears as a fine powder or suspension in a liquid, depending on the formulation. It’s usually odorless.

A crucial point to consider is liposomal iron’s hygroscopicity. Liposomes themselves can attract moisture, so proper storage in a seal...
