In today’s nutraceutical market, absorption and purity are the two cornerstones of supplement effectiveness. This is especially true for omega fatty acids, which provide profound benefits for cardiovascular health, brain function, inflammation balance, and skin wellness, but are notoriously difficult to absorb and often suffer from poor stability or an unpleasant taste. Now, two cutting-edge delivery systems—AquaCelle® and CPO® (Compressible Powdered Oils)—have been combined to address these challenges, offering consumers and formulators a breakthrough in bioavailable, clean-label omega nutrition.
What Happens When AquaCelle® Meets CPO®?
Individually, both AquaCelle® and CPO® are proven platforms:
- AquaCelle® is a self-emulsifying delivery system that creates microemulsions in the stomach, increasing surface area and absorption of lipophilic nutrients by up to 6 times.
- CPO® is an innovative oil-to-powder conversion technology designed to overcome the challenges of formulating with oily lipid-based ingredients. CPO®s address the problem of product spoilage from oils. This ingenious material development allows oily active ingredients to be included in stable tablet and powder formulations without leaching of the oils.
When combined, these technologies work in harmony: AquaCelle® boosts the bioavailability of CPO®s while preserving their clean-label integrity, freshness, and efficacy. This dual-technology platform delivers highly absorbable, non-oxidized, reflux-free omega supplements in modern and convenient formats.
Note: The combination of AquaCelle® and CPO® is NOT limited to Omega-3 Fatty Acids and can be applied to other oil lipid-based ingredients. I am using Omega-3s here as an example of their application.
Real Benefits for Real People Example: Omega-3s
- Heart & Brain Support: Higher absorption means more active EPA and DHA reaching circulation for cardiovascular and cognitive benefits.
- No Fishy Burps or Reflux: The clean processing and microemulsion format eliminates the common complaints that turn consumers off omega supplements.
- Plant-Based & Sustainable: This technology works beautifully with vegan omega oils like algal DHA, flaxseed, hemp, and Ahiflower®, meeting growing demand for sustainable and animal-free options.
- Ideal for Functional Nutrition: The stability and taste profile of CPO® plus the absorption boost from AquaCelle® make this combo perfect for sachets, functional drinks, or liquid shots.
