"Introduction
Biotics Research Corporation was formed in 1975 and incorporated
in 1976. From day one, the foundation of Biotics Research Corporation has been
Innovation
and Quality.
Our goals remain unchanged,
innovative ideas, carefully researched concepts, and product development with
advanced analytical and manufacturing techniques to develop and produce
nutritional products of superior quality and effectiveness.
During the 1970's, most nutritional supplements were manufactured using
components such as food dyes and high levels of inert fillers, often times
resulting in products with poor dissolution, and therefore poor assimilation and
bioavailability. The founders of Biotics Research realized there was
significant opportunity for improvement, even for the so-called
whole
food nutrients
that were available at the time. Biotics recognized that a highly skilled
scientific staff, academically trained in nature's
principals, with research laboratory assets at their disposal, was needed for a
new approach at product research and development. This was especially true in
areas such as improving methods of nutrient delivery and ensuring product
consistency and quality.
Emulsified Fat-Soluble Nutrients and Botanical Extracts
After extensive literature searches and review, Biotics focused
its research resources on developing an improved delivery method for oily
nutrients such as vitamins A, D, E. The result was true oil-in-water emulsions
of fat-soluble nutrients. Biotics
emulsions are distinguishable by direct examination under a microscope. The
smaller and more uniform particle size in the Biotics
emulsions are clearly visible under microscopic examination. Particle dispersal
is accomplished by non-detergent means—this allows for increased safety and
without increasing gut permeability, as is often seen with micellized
preparations. Our research on the subject was presented to the American Society
for Clinical Nutrition*
and published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.*
Our emulsified nutrients represent a more cost-effective means of
delivering nutrients than micellized, dry, or oily preparations. Biotics
Research also developed a drying process whereby the liquid emulsion can be
added to tablets, capsules and powders in a dry form. This process increases
stability and convenience, while still delivering increased uptake of
fat-soluble nutrients. The was proven by a double-blind, placebo-controlled
study that measured the blood uptake of coenzyme Q10 after ingestion of
supplements containing powdered CoQ-10, or the emulsified form (as CoQ-Zyme
Forte tablets) at a dose of 30 mg daily. The emulsified CoQ-10 tablets were
shown to double blood levels, a feat not accomplished until 90 mg of powdered
CoQ was ingested. Again, these results were presented in peer-reviewed
scientific publications.*
We should note here that Biotics Research Corporation introduced
Coenzyme Q10 to the North American healthcare market. The research into this
amazing nutrient opened their eyes to its many benefits. We knew we had to make it
available; but at the time, coenzyme Q10 was not available as a raw material.
The only way we were going to be able to provide it was to produce it ourselves,
which we did! We extracted it from bovine heart muscle, the richest natural
source of CoQ-10. It took 4,000 pounds of tissue to yield one kilogram of
CoQ-10.
Getting back to emulsified nutrients, it is important to
understand they are safely and more completely absorbed by people with
gastrointestinal disorders and those with compromised digestion and absorption.
Lower doses of emulsified nutrients are able to be used, resulting in greater
compliance and cost-effectiveness.
Emulsified vitamins are absorbed into the lymphatic system,
rather than the portal system (as when fat-soluble nutrients are micellized).
The lymphatic system normally handles fat absorption, and feeds the immune
system directly. Also, emulsions are found in mother's
milk, nuts and seeds. It is Nature's
way of storing fat and fat-soluble nutrients in our unrefined foodstuffs.
Emulsions from Biotics Research, are a perfect example of
The Best of Science and Nature."
