Greetings, it's Eric Bakker, the Naturopath from New Zealand. Thanks for coming back. Let's talk
about vitamin C. I've introduced the C-3K Plus powder not that long ago, but now I've finally got
the container in my hand. So, I've been working on this formulation for a long, long time and
in other videos likely explain more about different features and benefits of this product.
In this video, we're going to talk about liposomal vitamin C or some brands will call it lypospheric.
So, this is a novel new form of vitamin C that's been out now for a few years.
So, liposomal means that the sodium ascorbate, because I'm pretty sure it's sodium ascorbate,
is encapsulated by different types of fatty acids like phosphatidylcholine for example.
So the claims are, and the studies also show, that the absorption is very good on it.
One sachet though contains a thousand milligrams. So, the problem with lypospheric when you compare
it with this is, this is 3000 milligrams per scoop. So per serve, it's three times the potency,
and I can tell you this from my experience with vitamin C, after working with a lot of
people for a hell of a long time, some people will get loose bowel motions from vitamin C.
You're not really going to get that when you're under major stress or if
your adrenal glands have got a high requirement for vitamin C.
I personally had many patients in the clinic taking 10,000 milligrams or more orally,
and have no diarrhea at all on that dose because their body basically just used so much vitamin C.
I've had other patients who've had loose bowel motions on much lower dosages. So,
some people say that all the vitamin C you take up in a powder form, only a small amount gets
absorbed and the rest gets passed out. That's not my experience with people with high stress at all.
If you look at cost effectiveness of the lypospheric versus this,
I think you're going to get robbed. If you think that the lypospheric is the
best vitamin C product on the market, because it's not. It's just a different take on it,
okay? Just like there are different cars, there's sports models, and there are sedans, doesn't
mean to say one's better than the other. They all suit different needs and have different purposes.
The lypospheric is definitely a handy little thing to have sachets in your handbag if you're
traveling or things like that, but it's low dose. It's only 1,000 milligrams in the lypospheric,
and that's all it is, is just ascorbic acid or sodium ascorbate. Nothing but, and only a gram.
When you look at a form like this, okay, you got three grams of vitamin C,
but you've got it in a buffered form. So, buffered means it's not really going to upset your tummy.
It's in ascorbates, okay? So, it's more gentle on the tummy. Higher dose, but the good thing about
this product is you're going to have a lot of zinc in here. 11 and a half milligrams of zinc,
which is a lot of zinc per scoop, 250 milligrams of vitamin E, which is not getting in the
lypospheric. You're also getting over 1,000 milligrams of citrus bioflavonoids in there,
so this really is a super antioxidant powder with a very powerful vitamin C backend.
Whereas the lypospheric, in my opinion, is a low dose vitamin C at a high cost
for what you're getting. I don't really believe there are there any- There's no contest here.
I truly believe that the C-3K Plus is that clear winner
if you're looking at a super high potency vitamin C antioxidant product.
So, antioxidant is a lot more than just vitamin C because you really want the C
and the E together, because in nature, these things often do occur together.
The zinc is very powerful. It's super powerful. Zinc's what you want in your
body also to help fight viral conditions and to boost your immune system up.
So, taking vitamin C alone is good, but there are a lot of shortcomings.
You want to take it in a balanced formula, along with other ingredients that are going
to really help to get your immune system kicked up to a high level,
and that's why we created the C-3K Plus for that reason. I wanted to make a super powerful
tasty product that dissolves quick in water, and has a fantastic effect on your health overall.
We've talked in some other videos about the benefits of this product. But anyway,
that's just the comparison on the lypospheric vitamin C sachets that are popular now,
and the powder. Vitamin C's been around for a long time,
lypospheric's just another take on it. I wouldn't say it's good or bad, but
I would say when it comes to performance, I don't think there's any contest. Thanks for tuning in.
