Micronutrients & recovery
Encapsulating plant polyphenols in green bio-based nanocarriers (proteins, polysaccharides, or lipids) significantly improves their oral bioavailability and stability compared to unencapsulated forms.
If you take polyphenol supplements (like green tea extract or curcumin), look for those using advanced delivery systems (like nano-encapsulation). Standard powders may pass through your system without being absorbed effectively. The technology ensures the active ingredients actually enter your bloodstream.
Fortunately, green bio-based nanocarriers are well suited for encapsulating, protecting, and delivering polyphenols, thereby improving their bioavailability.
