Well, folks, I took the plunge, bought a Harbor Freight ultrasonic cleaner
(on sale now for $24.99), and made the stuff.

 

Not wanting to use lecithin derived from soy, I used lecithin made from
sunflowers. However, I didn't use the granulated kind, and here's where my
question comes in.

 

I bought the raw, cold-pressed, LIQUID sunflower lecithin from
http://www.therawfoodworld.com/index.php?main_page=product_info
<http://www.therawfoodworld.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=0&pro
ducts_id=1002747> &cPath=0&products_id=1002747 

 

I found it very difficult to dissolve the liquid lecithin in the distilled
water. There were still some small strings of undissolved lecithin remaining
after shaking it in the jar. I ran the lecithin-water-Vitamin C mixture
through about six 3-minute cycles in the ultrasonic cleaner, because I
wanted to make sure it dissolved sufficiently. The final mixture did indeed
acquire the desired milky appearance. However, there were still some small
bits of lecithin floating around.

 

Will this seriously impinge on the liposomal qualities of the Vitamin C? If
so, I'll get sunflower lecithin granules next time. Or does ALL homemade
Liposomal Vitamin C contain small bits of lecithin?

 

Thanks for your help.
