BIOAVAILABILITY OF NUTRIENTS: Increasing the bioavailability of a nutrient means allowing it to be absorbed by the body more easily.
Increasing the bioavailability of a nutrient means allowing it to be absorbed by the body more easily. Chinese wolfberry is the richest known natural source of zeaxanthin, an important antioxidant. By combining this with milk, the carrier system, the nutrients become more bioavailable. This was demonstrated in a collaborative research project – between R&D Shanghai and the Hong Kong Polytechnic Technical University. The technology is now being successfully applied Nestlé rice porridge, available in Malaysia.
