A Disturbance in the Force
Suggest organic sunflower lecithin powder as opposed to soy.

A note on ultrasonic frequencies
When the lecithin-ascorbic acid mix is poured directly into the steel well of the ultrasonic unit the ultrasonic vibrations will cause nanoparticles of metal to migrate into the liposomal vitamin C solution. Therefore it is better to use borosilicate glass as the receptacle to hold the lecithin-ascorbic acid solution. The ultrasonic waves pass from the metal bottom of the ultrasonic unit directly through the borosilicate glass flask and into the fluid. (For good reason, scientific laboratories use borosilicate glass, rather than metal for their research work.)

It's been mentioned before and might try the Sunflower-L with the traditional method I've been using. With the prescribed method in the link cited, was curious as to why the focus on avoiding the use of metal and how that would work out with the stainless steel ultrasonic process, and then it was detailed:

Mildain said:Thank you for the info voyageur. I didnt take this step, but will follow this for the next batch. Wondering if the amount of time needed to produce the liposomes would be longer ? My machine can operate for 99 mins/cycle max, so would it be a good idea to increase the amount of time the ultrasonic cleaner is running ? The last batch i had run for 60 minutes, until i saw the 'bubbling' dissappear.
I added a photo to show what my batch looks like using laura's recipe (using ascorbic acid, sodium bicarbonate, and Now brand sunflower lecithin)
Thanks to everyone else coming up with all the great info.
Foxx said:That does sound like quite a process Loray! Since a lot of other people have had good results with liposomal vitamin C made with the recipe here, it might be worth trying out since it's a significantly faster and easier process. You could potentially run an experiment using one batch for a few days then switching to the simpler recipe and using that batch for a few days and see if there's a notable difference in bowel tolerance--if not, then it's likely that the more complicated method isn't producing a significantly higher quality result (if at all).
1. Measure alcohol and add to a one litre glass beaker, add water and then ascorbic acid and stir with a glass rod
2. Place beaker suspended in ultrasonic bath and stir intermittently until it has dissolved.

1) First though was "Vitamin C is your friend". Took something like 7 big tsp along the day (probably around 20 gr).
2) Next day, I didn't felt better. Thought "Liposomal". Had to review the receipe. Found one at the beginning of this thread. Assumed 2 tsp = 1 TBS, ended with a light version. Probably 20 gr of Ascorbic Acid in it. Drinked the 2 cups in 27 hours.
3) That leads us to tuesday (3rd day) arround 2 PM. By this time, had finish to re-read this all thread, and had remember where I did put my Sodium Ascorbate. Made the heavy version (with 6 TBS of Sodium Ascorbate for 2 cups). Drank 25 ml times 4 between 3 PM and 6 PM. Had reach bowel tolerance soon after the last dose. Stopped the taking until... I wake up coughing, get up to see if it is late enough to stay up... 1 O'clock. Took an other 25 ml, got back to bed.
4) Today: Took 25 ml times 3 or 4, reached bowel tolerance, waited 3 hours and took 15 ml. That was arround 4 PM.
So, I was clearly better on the third day, much much less "blow your nose", but still a lot of dry coughing, and global pain.
4th day : ditto.
Now, I remember from my youth that Vicks VapoRub did a good job. I would prefer not to take the stuff today as it seems to contain bad stuff. Foud several recipes said to be equivalent, one of wich I have the ingredients.
So I will go with 60 ml of coconut oil and 12 drop of lavender essential oil.
Also happend to have inherited some lavender, so had start to sniff it while waiting for the coconut oil to cool down.
If anyone has any other idea to help me go through this, it will be much appreciated.
Hope I will be better tomorrow. I am not so far of suicidal thoughts ;)
I use a good quality ziplock bag inside the ultrasonic cleaner.
Ziplock brand does not use BPA in their plastics.
Plastics and Leeching
It blocks less of the ultrasonic waves than glass/paper/cardboard.
It also makes cleaning up a snap!
My concern here is that Glad, for example, may not be using BPA, they may be using Bisphenol B, C, E, F, G, M. P, PH, TMC or Z .
I have emailed them, and if I get e reply, will report back here.
“We have analyzed many commercial and homemade products over the years, and have found that many of them are emulsions.“
I realize that you do not use Bisphenol A or pthalates in your plastic food bags. Can you tell me if you use Bisphenol B, C, E, F, G, M. P, PH, S, TMC or Z in your plastic food bags?

Thank you for contacting us at Glad. We always appreciate hearing from our consumers.
This is to certify that none of the Glad food containers, wraps, and storage bags and other food contact Products (Glad Press 'n Seal Versatile Sealing Wrap, Glad Press'n Seal Freezer Sealable Wrap, Glad Cling Warp, GladWare Food Containers, Glad Oven Ware, Glad Simply Cooking Microwave Steaming Bags, Glad Food Storage Bags, Glad Freezer Bags, Glad Sandwich Bags, Glad Straws) are made of Polycarbonate nor is Bisphenol A used as a raw material in their production. The food contact resins used in these products comply with the specification contained in the FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 for olefin polymers, and all other components fully comply with applicable US FDA regulations for food contact materials.
We have never used BPA in any of our products. The material is used for epoxy and polycarbonate polymers and not at all in polyethylene products. So there is no historical considerations as we have no products made with BPA .
Lastly, we do not use BPS in these products.
We hope this information has been helpful.
