Liposomes and Heavy Metals with Dr Chris Shade

Dr Christopher Shade may well be one of the world's foremost experts in human detoxification.

In today's podcast, Dr Shade takes us through the science behind liposomal technology and its applications in heavy metal detoxification. Find out the intricacies of liposomal formulation, stability and pharmacodynamics as well as the many possibilities for drug and nutrient delivery.

Ahead of his appearance at the forthcoming 5th BioCeuticals Research Symposium, Dr Shade also shares some insight into the features of his masterclass - understanding of the complex biochemistry that underlies the moderation and removal of heavy metals and other biotoxins from overloaded systems.
