What are Some Common Nanotechnology-based Nutraceuticals?
Some common nanotechnology-based nutraceuticals include:
1. Curcumin Nanoparticles: Curcumin, an active component of turmeric, has poor bioavailability. Using nanotechnology, curcumin can be encapsulated in nanoparticles, enhancing its absorption and efficacy. 2. Omega-3 Fatty Acid Nanoemulsions: Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for heart health but are poorly soluble in water. Nanoemulsions can improve their stability and bioavailability. 3. Vitamins Encapsulated in Nanocapsules: Vitamins like Vitamin D and E can be encapsulated in nanocapsules to improve their stability and controlled release.
