Description
Rohto The Lypo Vitamin C Deep Capsule — Liposomal Vitamin C, 60 Capsules
Overview
The Lypo Vitamin C Deep Capsule is a Japanese vitamin C supplement from Rohto Pharmaceutical. Each capsule holds two kinds of granule: a yellow sustained-release granule in which the vitamin C is enclosed in a phospholipid (liposomal) coat, and a white fast-acting granule carrying vitamin C together with hyaluronic acid and hesperidin. Two capsules give 500 mg of vitamin C — 500% of the Japanese daily reference value.
The point of the phospholipid coat is protection through digestion, so that the vitamin C is released further along rather than all at once. That is what the format is designed to do; we make no claim about how much of it reaches any particular tissue, because that is not something a supplement label can tell you.
Rohto Pharmaceutical is a listed Osaka company founded in 1899, known internationally for its eye-care range. We ship from Kobe.

Who Is This For?
- Adults who want a high-dose vitamin C in capsule form and prefer a pharmaceutical-company product
- People who would rather take two small capsules than mix a powder or drink a sachet
- Anyone who wants hyaluronic acid and hesperidin in the same product rather than as separate purchases
- Not suitable if you are lactose intolerant — lactose is the first ingredient
- Not suitable if you avoid lecithin, or if you are on a low-oxalate diet advised by your doctor
How to Use
- Take 2 capsules a day with water.
- Take them at whatever time suits you — there is no required timing.
- Swallow whole; do not open the capsule, as the granules are what carry the format.
- Store away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity.
Frequency: Twice-a-day format is not required — 2 capsules once daily is the label guideline. One bottle covers 30 days.
Full Ingredients
Ingredients (原材料名), as printed by Rohto: lactose (produced in the United States), fatty acid / vitamin C, HPMC, cellulose, HPC, silicon dioxide, lecithin, hyaluronic acid, vitamin B2, calcium stearate, hesperidin.
Nutrition per 2 capsules (866 mg): energy 1.3 kcal · protein 0.008 g · fat 0.01 g · carbohydrate 0.3 g · salt equivalent 0.0002–0.007 g · vitamin C 500 mg (500%).
The liposomal element is the fatty-acid/phospholipid coat around the vitamin C in the yellow granule; lecithin is the phospholipid source and is commonly soy-derived.
Cautions
- This is a food, not a medicine. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
- Contains lactose, listed first. Not suitable if you are lactose intolerant.
- Contains lecithin. Lecithin is commonly soy-derived; if you avoid soy, treat this as a soy risk.
- Vitamin C at gram-level intakes can loosen the stool or cause stomach discomfort in some people. Keep to 2 capsules a day.
- Vitamin B2 can turn urine bright yellow. This is harmless and expected.
- If you are pregnant, nursing, under medical treatment or taking any medication, ask your doctor before use.
- If the product does not agree with you, stop taking it.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Store away from direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, and close the bottle after use.

FAQ
What does liposomal actually mean here?
In the yellow granule the vitamin C is enclosed in a phospholipid coat, built from the fatty-acid and lecithin components in the ingredient list. The coat is there to hold the vitamin C together through the stomach so it is released gradually rather than all at once. The white granule has no coat and is released straight away.
How much vitamin C do I get?
500 mg per 2-capsule daily serving, which Rohto states as 500% of the Japanese daily reference value. The bottle holds 60 capsules, so 30 days.
Does it contain dairy or soy?
It contains lactose, which is milk-derived and is the first ingredient — not suitable for lactose intolerance. It also contains lecithin, most commonly made from soy; if you avoid soy, treat this as a soy risk.
Is the capsule shell animal-derived?
No. The shell is HPMC — hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, made from plant cellulose. There is no gelatin in the shell. The formula itself carries no halal certification, so if formal certification matters to you, please check the ingredient list above with your religious authority.
Can I take it with other supplements?
It is a vitamin C product, so the thing to watch is your total vitamin C across everything you take. If you are already on a vitamin C supplement, count them together. If you take prescription medication, ask your doctor first.
