By Linda Ruiz


Liposomes have a cell like characteristics. Due to this attribute it is commonly used to target ailments and also provides a new approach to genetic studies. This cell like substance contains lipids as its wall. In fact, this wall is very similar to our cell that it enables it to mesh with ease.

This was first developed by a researcher named Alec Bangham way back in 1961. He said that he was trying to experiment a new laboratory apparatus, and at the same time make a noted observation about our cell wall while developing the liposomes. After that, more and more researchers have worked on the field, trying to develop new liposomal formulation. This gives birth to various commercial products available today.

The name liposome comes from the Greek word, Lipos which means fat and Soma meaning body. It can be created in various forms and sizes depending on the purpose. Also, the name only relates to its building block which is phospholipids and not necessarily its size.

Think about liposome as a carrier. This microscopic matter can be filled with different kinds of substances including DNA, medications and so on. Most of time, it is manually injected to an individual. The carrier will then move through the cells like a normal cell and target the specific part or organ of the body. In this manner, the drugs will be more effective.

In the scientific field, more specifically the genetic field, use this to carry DNA. Once the DNA is carried into an individual it can then begin to alter the DNA in a safer way. Before, to make this possible you need to inject some kind of virus to the patient to the job. Aside from that, DNAs that are damaged can also be replaced through this.

Too much about science and modern medicine, and lets us talk about the effects of it in cosmetics. These materials are commonly used in our everyday moisturizers. If you look into the bottle of your moisturizer, there is a possibility that there is a big label there that it shows it contains liposom. Due to its undeniable efficacy, lots of companies put this in front of their products to attract more customers.

Typically, most people do not eat the right food for their body. We are more accustomed to the things we think is delicious but we do not consider its health benefits. To solve the issue, we can take a food supplement to replace the insufficient nutrients our body needs. And these supplements cannot be that effective without the use liposome.

Even though tablet is not that costly, you will still suffer with its effectiveness. Most of the time, it will take effect for about an hour which is not good especially if you have some kind of illness that needs medication in real time. This kind of restrictions is eliminated mostly by liposom.

Health is our wealth and keeping our body healthy is our job. If you might consider buying this kind of medicine, ensure that it is prescribed by a doctor. This will give you an idea on what is the perfect medicine for you.
