Phospholipids = molecular encapsulation of polyphenol herb extracts in bioavailable lipids such as coconut oil ,soy lecithin ,or MCFAs.Pubmed research states: As a molecular delivery vehicle, phytosome technology substantially improves the clinical applicabilities of polyphenols and other poorly absorbed plant medicinals. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19803 548
“For each of these preparations, conversion into phytosomes has improved efficacy without compromising safety. The phytosome technology creates intermolecular bonding between individual polyphenol molecules and one or more molecules of the phospholipid, phosphatidylcholine (PC). Molecular imaging suggests that PC molecule(s) enwrap each polyphenol; upon oral intake the amphipathic PC molecules likely usher the polyphenol through the intestinal epithelial cell outer membrane, subsequently accessing the bloodstream. PC itself has proven clinical efficacy that contributes to phytosome absorption…” for oral and transdermal applications.
For herbs like turmeric which have a pungent taste encapsulated curcumin in capsule form increases bioavailability by being absorbed before it enters the more acidic GI tract.
