Product Detailed Description

liposomal Sprouted cherry Powder 15% — High Bioavailability Anthocyanin Supplement

Product Overview

Liposomal Sprouted Cherry Powder 15% is a premium-grade dietary supplement ingredient delivering sprouted tart cherry powder in an advanced liposomal delivery system. The product is standardized to ≥15% anthocyanins, ensuring a high concentration of the primary bioactive constituents responsible for cherry’s potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Sprouted cherry powder is produced from the germination of tart cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) seeds under controlled conditions, followed by drying and milling to a fine powder. The germination process activates dormant enzymes within the seed, initiating a cascade of biochemical transformations that enhance the nutritional profile of the seed. By permitting the seed to germinate and sprout, not only is the mineral connection and enzymes liberated and enhanced to proteins improved, but starches are changed to simple sugars as well as prebiotics and probiotics expressed. Water-soluble polyphenols have been found to increase during germination in seeds from the Rosaceae family, including American red cherry, apricot, almond, plum, and loquat seeds.

Tart cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) is a rich source of bioactive compounds including anthocyanins, polyphenols, carotenoids, vitamin C, potassium, serotonin, tryptophan, and melatonin. The primary bioactive constituents are anthocyanins, particularly cyanidin-3-glucosyl-rutinoside and cyanidin-3-rutinoside, which are responsible for the intense red color and potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The solid flavonoid-rich fraction of the sour cherry seed kernel, comprising approximately 64–68% of the kernel, contains several health-enhancing polyphenolic compounds such as catechins, stilbenes, and anthocyanidins.

Why Liposomal Technology?

Conventional oral cherry polyphenols present significant bioavailability challenges. The therapeutic translation of cherry phytocomplexes is severely restricted by low oral bioavailability, rapid phase II metabolism, and active transporter-mediated elimination by ABCG2 and ABCC2. These limitations significantly reduce the systemic exposure and biological activity of cherry polyphenols following oral administration.

Liposomal encapsulation provides four critical advantages:

1. Enhanced Stability and Protection — Liposomal systems are promising carrier systems for the delivery of phenolic compounds. An aqueous liposomal dispersion loaded with sour cherry phenolics (SCE) converted into powder form by spray drying was successfully encapsulated, and the spray drying process did not degrade phenolic compounds encapsulated by liposomes. The liposomal structure was the most stable during storage, and the SCE showed the lowest degradation level in terms of total phenolics and antioxidant capacity, meaning that the SCE in the liposomal encapsulates was protected during the storage period.

2. Enhanced Bioaccessibility and Cellular Uptake — Liposomal encapsulation effectively enhances the stability, bioactivity, and sustained release of polyphenols. Liposomes increase the bioaccessibility of flavonoids and, indirectly, their bioactivity by protecting these compounds from environmental degradation and rapid metabolism, and facilitating controlled release and absorption in the body. Nanoparticles have the potential to enhance the absorption of phenolic phytochemicals because they are able to disrupt tight junctions.

3. Enhanced Cellular Uptake and Targeted Delivery — Liposomes enable polyphenols to better traverse biological membranes and protect them from unfavorable conditions in the gastrointestinal tract. Liposomal encapsulation improves the solubility and stability of polyphenols and facilitates their controlled release and absorption.

4. Water-Dispersible and Clean-Label Compatible — The liposomal powder disperses readily in aqueous systems, forming a uniform dispersion suitable for functional beverages, sachets, and liquid formulations. The phospholipid carrier is plant-derived and non-GMO, supporting clean-label positioning.

Product Specifications

Key Features

• High Potency — Standardized to ≥15% anthocyanins, one of the highest anthocyanin concentrations available in a plant-based cherry powder format, ensuring consistent active content.

• Liposomal Enhancement — Phospholipid bilayer encapsulation provides stability for sour cherry phenolics during storage and significantly reduces degradation of total phenolics and antioxidant capacity.

• Sprouted Advantage — Germination activates enzymes, liberates bound minerals, converts starches to simple sugars, and expresses prebiotics and probiotics, enhancing the nutritional and beneficial microflora value for improved absorption.

• Anthocyanin-Rich Source — The solid flavonoid-rich fraction of the sour cherry seed kernel comprises approximately 64–68% of the kernel and contains catechins, stilbenes, and anthocyanidins.

• Exercise Recovery Support — Tart cherry supplementation may help reduce muscle soreness and minimize loss of muscle strength, supporting post-workout recovery.

• Sleep Quality Support — Tart cherries are a natural source of melatonin, serotonin, and tryptophan, supporting healthy sleep quality.

• Cognitive Function Support — Polyphenol-rich tart cherries have been shown to improve sustained attention, feelings of alertness, and mental fatigue in middle-aged adults.

• Cardiovascular Support — Cherry polyphenols support endothelial function and healthy inflammation response, contributing to cardiovascular health.

• Water-Dispersible — Liposomal powder offers excellent dispersibility in aqueous systems; suitable for capsules, tablets, powder drink mixes, and functional beverages.

• Batch Traceability — Complete COA, HPLC chromatogram, and identity data provided for each batch.

Application & Formulation Guidance

Recommended Dosage

Most clinical studies conducted to date have reported the total polyphenol and anthocyanin doses administered that were contained in cherry extracts, which ranged from 143 to 2,140 mg/day and 15 to 547 mg/day, respectively, as well as the duration of treatments, which ranged from acute supplementation to 84 days. For exercise recovery, tart cherry concentrate is commonly dosed at 30 mL twice daily for 7–10 days before and after strenuous exercise. For sleep support, 480–1,000 mg of tart cherry powder taken 30–60 minutes before bedtime is commonly used. Liposomal formulations may allow for more efficient utilization of lower doses due to enhanced bioavailability and protection from degradation.

Important Safety Information: Sprouted cherry powder is generally well tolerated. Tart cherries are a natural food ingredient with a long history of safe consumption. Individuals with known hypersensitivity to cherries or related fruits should avoid supplementation. Pregnant or lactating women and children should consult a healthcare professional before use. Tart cherry may interact with certain medications, including anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents.
