Sucrosomial®: Improved Absorption and Bioavailability
Sucrosomial® minerals enhance mineral absorption through a unique technology in which a mineral is conveyed into a liposomal-like structure made up of a phospholipid and a sucrose ester of fatty acids (sucresters), called a sucrosome.
The sucresters act as emulsifiers, surrounding the liposomal-like structure that encapsulates the microelement, in this way increasing its absorption and bioavailability. Because the mineral is encapsulated, its absorption is not impacted by the presence of other nutrients.*
Several laboratory and animal tests have shown that the sucrose esters of fatty acids utilized in Sucrosomial technology are effective vehicles for improving solubility, dissolution, absorption, bioavailability, and palatability.
Bio Active Ingredients carries a full line of Sucrosomial® minerals including the just launched Sucrosomial Vitamin D3 with a new study due to publish this Fall.
