'''Quercetin LipoMicel''' is a novel formulation from Natural Factors designed to enhance the bioavailability of quercetin. LipoMicel encapsulates quercetin molecules within micelles, tiny spherical structures formed from natural, non-ionic surfactants. These micelles facilitate the solubilization of quercetin, allowing it to be more readily absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. In a study sponsored by Natural Factors, the bioavailability of Standard Quercetin, Quercetin Phytosome and Quercetin LipoMicel was compared. Thereby, Quercetin Phytosome had a slightly higher relative bioavailability (AUC) than for Quercetin LipoMicel, but longer steady state levels of quercetin were provided by LipoMicel. | '''Quercetin LipoMicel''' is a novel formulation from Natural Factors designed to enhance the bioavailability of quercetin.
