Description
This supplement helps with: reduced resistance, joint problems, skin complaints and recovery after illness or surgery. Dogs and cats produce vitamin C themselves, but in case of illness or stress, this falls short.
How does Liposomal Vitamin C work?
Vitamin C is much more than an immune vitamin. It is an essential cofactor for the production of collagen, the structural protein that keeps joints, skin, bones and blood vessels firm. Without enough vitamin C, the body cannot produce proper collagen, which becomes visible as joint problems, poor wound healing, and skin problems.
Dogs and cats can produce vitamin C themselves, but with infection, chronic illness, intensive exercise or old age, the need increases sharply while production lags behind. Addition in those situations is mechanistically well-founded.
The liposomal form ensures significantly better absorption than regular vitamin C, which is hardly absorbed at higher doses and can cause stomach upset.
What does this supplement do?
- Supports resistance to infections and chronic complaints
- Helps in the production of collagen for joints and skin
- Supports the liver in the processing of toxins
- In case of illness or old age, the own production is inadequate
- Liposomal form for better absorption without stomach upset
When do you see results?
Vitamin C has a fast and slow effect. From a systems biology point of view, the immune system recovers relatively quickly, while structural improvements in joints and skin take more time because they depend on collagen build-up.
Immune support immediately active. In acute infection or recovery after illness, a noticeable improvement in energy is quickly noticeable.
Better resistance visible: less likely to get sick, faster recovery. Beginning of improvement in skin quality.
Collagen build-up visible in skin and coat. In joint problems, improvement in flexibility due to better cartilage.
Daily use maintains optimal vitamin C status for immune, collagen and antioxidant protection.

Comparison based on common vitamin C supplements for dogs and cats on the Dutch market.
Part of a protocol
Liposomal Vitamin C is a phase 1 component of the Bowel Protocol as an anti-inflammatory supporter.
Works well with
Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant, immune booster and collagen cofactor. The supplements below enhance each of these three functions.
Vitamin C regenerates oxidative glutathione back to its active form. Together, they form a recycled antioxidant system that works much more efficiently than either individually. The strongest antioxidant combination available.
Vitamin C is an essential cofactor for collagen synthesis. Mobility Support provides the building blocks for cartilage. Without sufficient vitamin C, these building blocks cannot be optimally used by chondrocytes.
Vitamin C enhances the immune response that activates lactoferrin. Together in infection and recovery for faster and more complete immune recovery than either individually.
Curcumin inhibits NF-kB inflammation, vitamin C neutralizes the oxidative damage that occurs with inflammation. Together, they simultaneously inhibit and recover from chronic inflammatory diseases.
