Did you know 80% of a vitamin C supplement can be destroyed in the stomach, before ever making it into your bloodstream?
In fact, when taken in a raw form, many traditional vitamins struggle to make it past your digestive system, meaning your body absorbs far less than you’d expect.
Factors like stomach acid, enzyme breakdown, and poor bioavailability can all limit the effectiveness of standard supplements - leaving you without the full benefits your body needs.
That’s where the Zooki Liposomal range comes in.

Each product in the Zooki Liposomal range uses advanced liposomal encapsulation to shield nutrients and enhance absorption, ensuring they reach your cells effectively
Results in days, not weeks
Whether you’re looking to support immunity, energy, brain function, or overall wellness, Zooki Liposomal vitamins deliver high-strength nutrition in a delicious, easy-to-take format - so you get more of what matters, every time.
In their natural state, key nutrients like Vitamin C and Vitamin D are unprotected and vulnerable to being destroyed by the acidic conditions of our stomach and intestines
2. Shield
To get around this, we developed a way to wrap nutrients in “Liposomes” - tiny bubbles made from the same building blocks that make up the walls of our cells
Deliver
These “Liposomes” form a shield around the nutrients which 1) prevents them from being destroyed in your digestive system and 2) increases their absorption across the gut wall and into the bloodstream.
Did you know...
Before revolutionising the supplement industry, liposomes were a game-changer in pharmaceuticals. Originally developed in the 1960s, these tiny, fat-based delivery systems were used to enhance the effectiveness of drugs, antibiotics, and vaccines - helping medications reach their target cells more efficiently.
Now, this very same cutting-edge technology is what we use to increase the absorption of our products by up to 4x vs. regular supplements. Pictured to the right is a 3D render of a nutrient encapsulated in a liposome!
Up to 10x greater nutrient protection
To try and measure the amount of a supplement that gets destroyed in our digestive system, we teamed up with a university to conduct in vitro studies that simulated the acidic conditions of both the stomach and the intestines, and measured how nutrients such as Vitamin C and Glutathione held up over time. We then ran the same exact studies but with the nutrients shielded inside Zooki Liposomes.
Remarkably, over 10x less nutrients were destroyed by stomach acid after one hour when wrapped in a Zooki liposome.
The science
How Liposomes increase absorption
Step 1
A lot of supplements are absorbed in the intestines through active transport - your body expends energy to absorb nutrients into the bloodstream through “protein channels” that are embedded in the one-cell thick gut wall.
The body doesn’t have enough of these protein channels in the gut wall to absorb the high concentrations of nutrients found in supplements, which leads to the majority of the nutrients in regular supplements passing straight through the body without being absorbed
Step 3
By encapsulating nutrients in liposomes, the nutrients can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream through M-cells in the gut lining, bypassing the need for the protein channels that get saturated and act as bottlenecks for nutrient absorption.
Step 4
This results in more nutrients entering the bloodstream and reaching the cells where they’re needed, rather than passing straight through the intestines without being absorbed.
Up to 4x greater absorption
To see how much better nutrients are absorbed when wrapped in a Liposome, we worked with academics on clinical trials that tested the absorption of our Liposomal Vitamin C and Liposomal Glutathione compared to the nutrients in their raw form.
Both studies found a groundbreaking 4x more nutrients in the bloodstream over a 48 hour period when the nutrients were encapsulated inside Zooki Liposomes.
Does higher absorption lead to greater health benefits?
In one clinical trial, those who received Zooki Liposomal Iron experienced a 50% greater increase in haemoglobin count vs. those who received a regular Iron supplement over the same period
In a clinical trial done by St Mary's university...
Those who took Zooki Liposomal Turmeric experienced a statistically significant reduction in muscle soreness post-exercise, with the double-dose group also seeing a significant drop in inflammatory markers.
