In this respect, the
MEof bioactive ingredients could help to address some of
these problems.
Obviously, obtaining a health benefit also requires actions
to ensure the stability of the compounds in the gastrointestinal
(GI) system and to facilitate controlled release at
the appropriate GI target. Again, ME could be useful for
this purpose. In this review, we examine how ME can
facilitate the delivery of bioactive ingredients to both the
food matrix and to the GI tract.
