Anti-aging nutrient
Encapsulation technology is insertion of active ingredients into protective boundaries that an insolate, disperse, mobilize, enhance activity, and transport these ingredients via immiscible media and barriers. Inserting active ingredients into capsules is the art of encapsulation. Nano-encapsulation is encapsulation of ingredients in nanometer size range capsules. Normally, this would apply to encapsulation of a single or several ingredient molecules per individual capsule. An example of nano-capsules is cyclodextrin. Nanotechnology principles are used to prepare anti-aging nutrients. When applied to nutrition. The process involves physically altering a hard-to-absorb nutrient so that it becomes more available to the body without altering its function.For example, fat-soluble vitamins like carotenoids and CoQ10 tend to bunch together in the intestine, making them difficult to absorb. To enhance absorbability, individual molecules are separated using nano encapsulation. This process prevents molecules from clinging together so they are more available for easy absorption. This superior bioavailability with new patent-pending CR-6 nutrients by Pharmanex is a first-ever formula to deliver NanoCoQ10 and nano carotenoids along with other nutrients for maximum anti-aging benefits. And in the case of coenzyme Q10, this process of nano encapsulation increases bioavailability by 5–10 times.
