The quest for healthier, safer, and affordable dietary options and enhanced nutritional content and quality has spurred significant interest in novel
The research topic "Lipid-Based Systems for Improved Nutrient Stability and Bioavailability" from Frontiers in Nutrition explores the potential of lipid-based delivery systems to enhance the stability, bioavailability, and bioefficacy of nutrients. This collection of articles delves into various aspects such as the formulation of lipid-based systems like emulsions, liposomes, and solid lipid nanoparticles, which are designed to protect sensitive nutrients from degradation, improve their absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, and facilitate their transport across biological membranes. The research also covers the challenges in developing these systems, including issues related to lipid oxidation, physical stability, and the interaction with biological systems. Additionally, it discusses the application of these systems in functional foods, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceuticals, aiming to address nutritional deficiencies, enhance health outcomes, and provide innovative solutions for nutrient delivery in both developed and developing regions.
