“Solgar is proud to inSolgar is proud to introduce the first in a range of Platinum Edition products the first line of nutritional supplements to use nanotechnology to deliver unprecedented bioavailability. Nutri-Nano is the initial product to debut in Solgar's Platinum Edition - the first line of nutritional supplements to use nanotechnology to deliver unprecedented bioavailability. Ordinarily, fat soluble nutrients such as CoQ10 are absorbed via the same pathway as other dietary fats. The innovative Nutri-Nano CoQ10 provides CoQ10 molecules in preformed micelles, bypassing the need for emulsification and micellisation in the gut and ensuring efficient delivery to absorption sites in the small intestine. The net result is a product that is 3.1 times more bioavailable than traditional powdered CoQ10, providing faster, more efficient delivery of this important nutrient to the cells. Nutri-Nano CoQ10 is a breakthrough in nutritional product technology and represents the beginning of a new era in food supplements. 3.3 times more bioavailable than powdered CoQ1O 2 times more bioavailable than oil-based CoQ1O Faster absorption than traditional CoQ1O presentations Cost efficient Formulated with patent-protected Nutri-Nano technologytional supplements to use nanotechnology to deliver unprecedented bioavailability.” “Nutri-Nano™ is a patent-protected nanotechnology that transforms fat-soluble nutrients into water-soluble ones - significantly increasing absorption. How? Through surrounding the fat-soluble molecules with a water-soluble shell called a micell, which is only 30 nanometers in diameter. (A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter).”
