Nutraceuticals Having Sustained Release for Improved Bioavailability and Method of Production

摘要

The present disclosure describes economical processes to improve the bioavailability of nutraceuticals by formulations that induce micronization and sustained release. The inventive process can be used to increase the solubility and bioavailability of lipophilic and moderately water-soluble nutraceuticals by combining excipients that increase the solubility and induce sustained release of the active compounds. The inventive process also can be used to increase the residence time of highly water-soluble nutraceuticals that are metabolized and eliminated quickly from the body, consequently increasing the therapeutic potential. The disclosed formulations advantageously are freely flowing powders that can be used to formulate with other ingredients into tablets, capsules, or the like; or used as bulk powders.
