LivonLabs uses grain alchohol as 12% of the solution in their liposomal c. That solvent might be the key. However, I want to avoid alchohol. I am not having success with the USC either. Maybe a tiny bit is encapsulated, but not the desired amount.
Maybe the lecithin should -not- be disolved prior to adding. Seems like if the lecithin is saturated with water already, it can't uptake any more. Perhaps a higher concentrated mixture of sodium ascorbate in water would help. I've read that vitamin c has a large molecule. This was mentioned in a thread where someone was suggesting to mix C with DMSO to use on skin cancer. I used this mix on a couple suspicious spots that did respond; don't know if it was the c, dmso, or both. --- On Thu, 8/27/09, paul catania <squigg...@embarqmail.com> wrote: From: paul catania <squigg...@embarqmail.com> Subject: Re: CS>Liposomal Encapsulation To: silver-list@eskimo.com Date: Thursday, August 27, 2009, 1:08 AM Thank you Gail, Steve, Lin and all. I'm sorry that no one seems to be successful at this, but I'm glad that we are all trying and talking about it. I'm sure that if we all keep experimenting and keep the dialogue going, we can and will become more proficient at this. Paul p.s. A very close friend of mine, that I grew up with, was today diagnosed with stage-4 lung and brain cancer. I hope I can get this process working and I hope that he will be open enough to give it a try. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gail Rice" <gail.r...@gmail.com> To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 26, 2009 6:54 PM Subject: Re: CS>Liposomal Encapsulation Paul, I also made a batch of unencapsulated vitimin C. I have reread the suggested protocol and am sure I didn't vary any step except that my machine cycled for two 3min cycles instead of three 2min cycles.. I did use distilled water. I made sure all equipment was clean and dry before I began. I used a new pkg. of lecithin granules. They dissolved well into the water after several minutes. I used new ascorbic acid and it also disolved well into its water. I combined them in a brand new clean U S cleaner. (stirred slowly w/straw) When I tested a 4 oz sample in a 12 oz tumbler, it foamed like mad (about 2 inches). I tried re-running the U S cleaner on the remaining solution - still no noticable encapsulation. I wondered if there was a problem with my U S cleaner or one of the ingredients. Tonight I will try again with a different ultrasonic cleaner. If that fails, I will try a new package of lecithin. If that fails, I'll have to try new vitamin C. If I succeed at any point, I will inform you with details. Gail -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
