Beyond Heartburn: Don’t Just Fight Fires, Fuel Your Body to Thrive

Why Liposomals are the upgrade your body’s been waiting for.

5 min read

Many of you know us for our Heartburn Relief Kit, and if you’ve ever done battle with a bottle of Gaviscon at 2am, you know how life-changing proper relief can be. But over time, our mission has grown. We’re still here for your gut (always will be), but in recent years we’ve expanded our line to tackle other common, everyday struggles - like brain fog, fatigue, mood dips, and immunity issues

So this week is all about Liposomals. We’ll get into what they are, how they work, and why they’re especially useful for people recovering from reflux, experiencing low energy and brain fog, or just trying to get the most from the supplements they spend their hard-earned cash on.

So, What Are Liposomals?

Liposomal supplements are designed to bypass the harsh digestive process, so more of the nutrient actually gets into your bloodstream. This means your body absorbs more and wastes less. Think of it this way; Taking a regular supplement is like throwing a bottle of water with no cap at someone from across the room. Some of it might still be in the bottle when they catch it (if they do!) but most of it will spill out before it can do any good. Now imagine instead: You put that same water into a sealed bottle, secure the cap, walk over, and hand it directly to the person. They get every drop, they’re not annoyed at you for hurling an open bottle of water across the room, and nothing is going to waste.

Let’s get a little more nerdy here for a minute and expand on that.

This type of supplement uses tiny fat-like particles called liposomes to deliver nutrients straight into your cells. These guys know exactly where they’re going and protect the nutrients to ensure maximum absorption, unlike traditional pills or powders which often get lost and broken down in your digestive tract.

This matters especially if your gut has been through it with something like acid reflux, In addition, any kind of inflammation or medication use (and more!) can also affect how well you absorb nutrients from food and standard supplements.

Why It’s a Big Deal If You’ve Had Acid Reflux

Acid reflux doesn’t just cause discomfort (and, let’s face it - gut-wrenching PAIN), it also impacts how your body digests and absorbs nutrients. People with chronic heartburn often end up low in Vitamin B12, magnesium, iron, and even Vitamin D. Not to mention the effect that years of antacid or PPI use have on the digestive system by obliterating the natural levels of stomach acid your body needs to function as it should.

So even if your reflux is under control, your system might still be playing catch-up, which is where liposomals come in. They bypass the digestive chaos and get right to work.

Our Top Liposomal All-Stars (And Why You Might Need Them)

1. Liposomal Curcumin

Curcumin (from turmeric) is nature’s aid for inflammation. Curcumin is notoriously hard to absorb in its regular form, but liposomal curcumin eradicates that problem. The liposomal version helps with:

  • Brain fog & mental clarity
  • Post-reflux inflammation
  • Joint stiffness or pain
  • Immune health

2. Liposomal Glutathione

This one is your body’s master antioxidant. Low glutathione is linked to chronic fatigue, brain fog, and slower recovery. This one’s like your internal spring cleaner. If any of the below are priorities for you, get glutathione on your list. 

  • Detoxify your liver (especially handy if you’ve taken reflux meds long-term)
  • Support brain function
  • Improve skin clarity
  • Reduce oxidative stress

3. Liposomal Vitamin D3 + K2

Liposomal D is ideal if your digestion is compromised, which standard D3 tablets often struggle with. Here’s the science. Vitamin D itself impacts your bones, mood, immunity, and more. But here's the catch: it needs K2 to direct calcium to your bones instead of your arteries (yikes). 

Together, they’ve got it covered.

This is especially helpful for:

  • People who’ve been indoors a lot
  • Bone strength after years of acid reflux - several studies have linked long-term PPI use with an increased risk of fractures, especially in older adults.
  • Hormone balance and immune support

Bonus: Liposomal D is ideal if your digestion is compromised, which standard D3 tablets often struggle with. Here’s the science.

4. Liposomal Vitamin B 

People with digestive issues or who’ve taken antacids often struggle to absorb B vitamins, especially B12. Liposomal B skips the gut drama and gets to work fast. 

One of the key signs of a Vitamin B deficiency is If you're feeling like a human battery running on 3% 24/7. This makes sense when you consider all that this vitamin is essential for, such as:

  • Energy metabolism
  • Stress resilience
  • Nervous system health
  • Mood regulation

Real Talk: Do You Need Liposomals?

If you're thriving on a balanced diet and absorbing well, maybe not every day. But if you’ve:

  • Struggled with digestion or reflux
  • Taken PPIs or antacids long-term
  • Noticed fatigue, brain fog, or mood dips
  • Want supplements that actually work

Then yes; liposomals can make a world of difference. They’re not just another wellness trend; they’re backed by solid science and designed to actually do something.

Taking care of our health isn’t just about tackling one issue at a time, it’s about a holistic approach that looks after every aspect of your well-being. Liposomals help you do just that. They’re smart, efficient, and gentle on sensitive guts.
