A liposome is a microscopic spherical vesicle composed of one or more phospholipid bilayers surrounding an internal aqueous compartment.

Phospholipids — the structural molecules that form cell membranes throughout the human body — naturally self-organize into bilayer structures in water. Each phospholipid is amphipathic: it has a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and a hydrophobic (water-repelling) tail. In aqueous solution, phospholipids arrange themselves so the hydrophilic heads face outward toward the water and the hydrophobic tails face inward — forming a closed bilayer sphere.

Liposomal delivery takes advantage of this molecular self-assembly. Ingredients can be carried within the bilayer itself, or within the aqueous interior of the vesicle. In Codeage formulations that include Helix Liposomal Delivery, this is the structural format that carries the ingredients.

Codeage applies its Helix Liposomal Delivery format in the production of select formulations across the catalog. The approach surrounds ingredients with a lipid-based structure — a liposome — which serves as a method of carrying those ingredients within the formulation.

The purpose of using a liposomal delivery method is to offer an alternative way to incorporate ingredients into a formulation. The lipid-based structure can help shield ingredients during the manufacturing process — and may assist in maintaining ingredient integrity within the finished formula.

The format also supports formula stability, and allows for controlled formulation design. Because the lipid structure can be engineered in various ways, it offers flexibility in how ingredients are combined and arranged within the finished product.

Codeage's use of Helix Liposomal Delivery reflects its interest in exploring modern formulation methods that support product design, stability, and ingredient protection — applied formula by formula, where the formulation calls for it.

Helix Liposomal Delivery is used in select Codeage formulations across multiple pillars of The Longevity Code. The format is determined formula by formula — applied where the formulation design calls for it.

Nanofood® is Codeage's dedicated liquid and liposomal formulation line — a collection within the broader Codeage house. The line includes liquid collagen, liquid vitamins, liquid multivitamin, vitamin D drops, liquid amino acids, and additional liquid formulations across the catalog. Many Nanofood® formulations are produced using liposomal delivery technology.

Nanofood® represents the principal expression of Codeage's liposomal formulation work in liquid format. Where a Nanofood® formulation includes Helix Liposomal Delivery, it is identified on that product's page.

Codeage formulations sold in the United States, including those produced with Helix Liposomal Delivery, are manufactured in the United States in cGMP-certified facilities, using global ingredients. cGMP refers to Current Good Manufacturing Practices — the FDA-regulated manufacturing standards covering quality, identity, strength, and purity.

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is obtained for each batch, documenting quality, purity, and potency across microbiological, chemical, and physical analyses performed during manufacturing.

Select Codeage liposomal formulations also carry NSF certification — including Liposomal Glutathione. NSF certification verifies accurate labeling, safety, and quality standards. The quality systems applied to Helix Liposomal Delivery formulations are the same systems applied across the Codeage catalog.
