It was discovered that from phospholipids, structures called liposomes could be made. With the liposomal encapsulation technology as the name suggests, is a method used to administer drugs and food supplements to your body. This structure called phospholipids, is a bilayer of the human cell membrane and hence makes liposomes be of great health benefits since it one hundred percent natural.

The liposomes and cell membrane of a human look alike. This is because all of them contain double layers hence making the use of liposomes to the body is recognized as if it a structure naturally made in body. Since early 1980s, this method has gain recognition due to its beneficial effects. It is one of the great inventions made so far by scientists in drug administration.

Companies on various products have already employed it. With this technology the lipids in humans serum are reduced, cholesterol levels are also properly controlled, and it reduces blood clotting by minimizing platelets aggregation. There are also other advantages such as doing physical activities without feeling fatigued or getting muscle strains. It also assists in lowering peripheral cholesterol deposits.

The very fundamental thing about this method compared to the others is that it permits a nutrient to carry power packed and undestroyed natural compounds to specific tissues and organs. Administration of compounds through other method normally has the doses reduced. But, this is not a major issue since drugs are maximally absorbed through this method.

The procedure makes it both economically and biologically safe. It is not affected by appetite and there do dangers of overdoses. One can take substances and be assured that where it has been targeted to work, there will be maximum beneficial effects. This method ensures that substances are masked and reach targeted organs without being affected in quantity or quality thereby providing good results.

In normal intake of supplements and drug substances, there are a lot of barriers and obstacles that may affect or even inhibit absorption of such substances. If they are administered through the skin, bad weather conditions, oxygen, temperature, and other environmental conditions may reduce their quantity and quality before reaching the targeted organ. If it is done through the oral route, there are normally combination of acids and some gut enzymes that degrade and digest them before they are absorbed in body.

An good example of LETs procedure is in administering vitamin C. Some few animals and humans can synthesize this vitamin. However, a wide variety of animals can synthesize it in their livers as well as kidneys. Most of the mammals, excluding apes, humans, and guinea pigs, can release vitamin C from their livers. People who lack this vitamin can use this method to administer it in body.

In its traditional form, Vitamin C has a slow rate of assimilation if given through the oral route. This makes this technology helpfully not only to this vitamin alone but also to other food supplements meant for body growth. It is therefore advisable to use it instead of oral or injection routes. It gives good results free from hazardous side effects. Substances are shielded by this method from the harsh conditions, which are likely to take place within the gastrointestinal passage.
