- Key Features
VitaSperse is a unique microemulsion technology that gets water-insoluble ingredients dispersed into water-based liquid applications. VitaSperse stays dispersed within the liquid application of your choice, helps extend shelf life of sensitive ingredients, and may help improve bioavailability of select ingredients.*
Dispersion easily gets oil-based ingredients into water-based formulas.
Absorption may help improve the absorption of nutritional ingredients*Stability can help extend shelf life of active ingredients
Controlled Release of active ingredients (topical applications)
