I don't know for sure but if it's being made into a liposome - it's probably Artemisinin. I believe he sells his own brand. They are usually pretty pricey. It may be worth it but I don't know. I haven't tried it.

This company seems pretty good =

Ok thanks

You still make the liposomals?

I like the idea of encapsulating certain herbs to make them more effective (Houttuynia, etc)

At Dr. K's clinic they usually recommend BioPure artemisinin for use in the cocktails. Dr. K consults with BioPure.

Good luck!

Isn't artemisinin tough on the liver?

Biopure carries the items he uses for patients. If things don't work for his patients and benefit as he recommends it over time, they do not carry it. They carry whatever works and are therefore limited to very few items. He has used artemisinin for years (always with grapefruit juice). It is a longterm treatment
and he is very fussy with the quality of a product that he can best determine with his testing method, ART. He is constantly searching for better. I have often wished things cost less, but if a product is not good quality, what good does it do if you pay less.

Take care.

Sometimes, you have to use what is affordable...

Yes, I made the liposomal vit. c. I am going to try other things, too. I have to study it to make sure it's OK to take various things in this manner.

I have seen companies that offer curcumin, resveratrol, ubiquinol, glutathionine & some herbals. I got some curcumin but I have to make time to do the process. Only so many hours in a day!
