Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency worldwide, affecting approximately 30% of the global population, particularly young children and premenopausal women. Iron is vital for critical biological processes, including oxygen transport, energy metabolism, DNA synthesis, and cell proliferation. Iron deficiency, a precursor to IDA, occurs when iron stores are depleted without necessarily progressing to anaemia. When iron deficiency advances to IDA, it results in microcytic hypochromic anaemia, characterized by small, pale red blood cells due to insufficient iron for haemoglobin synthesis.

While traditional capsules and powders can offer nutritional support, many nutrients struggle to survive digestion or be absorbed efficiently. That’s where liposomal delivery systems step in an innovative technology changing how we absorb essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Liposomes are microscopic-sized spherical envelopes or pockets containing an aqueous core. The phospholipids are arranged into spherical cell membrane–like lipid bilayer, knows as a phospholipid bilayer. The centre of the liposome consists of an aqueous core.
