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 evaluated. The results indicated that Quercetin LipoMicel had a relative bioavailability to Standard Quercetin of 8.5, while Quercetin Phytosome exhibited a slightly higher value of 8.9. Notably, LipoMicel maintained more consistent levels of quercetin in the system over a 24-hour period. <ref name=":1">https://jnhpresearch.com/index.php/jnhpr/article/view/17/24</ref> | |||
