EnteroGuard Technology
A protective coating for targeted delivery of supplements.
Also known as: Enteric Coating
Overview
EnteroGuard Technology is a type of enteric coating applied to supplements to protect them from the acidic environment of the stomach. This allows the supplement to pass through the stomach intact and be released in the small intestine, where it can be absorbed more effectively.
Key Benefits
Enhances Bioavailability
By protecting sensitive ingredients from stomach acid, EnteroGuard Technology can significantly increase their absorption and bioavailability.
Enables Targeted Delivery
This technology allows for the targeted release of supplements in the small intestine, which can be beneficial for certain ingredients like probiotics and enzymes.
Reduces Stomach Upset
For supplements that can cause stomach irritation, such as fish oil or certain enzymes, an enteric coating can help prevent side effects.
Dosage & How to Take
Not applicable, as EnteroGuard is a delivery system, not a supplement itself.
