Have you seen our recent clinical study on LipoVantage® Liposomal CoQ10?

Published in Frontiers in Nutrition, our new study shows that liposomal CoQ10 delivers significantly greater plasma exposure than conventional CoQ10.

Because CoQ10 is fat-soluble, it has traditionally needed to be taken with food to support absorption. This study showed that LipoVantage® liposomal CoQ10 eliminates that dependency, allowing CoQ10 to be effectively absorbed even when taken on an empty stomach, adding flexibility and ease for everyday use.

Why does improved bioavailability matter?
Enhanced absorption can:
• help achieve meaningful levels at lower doses
• benefit individuals with compromised fat digestion or absorption
• accelerate early exposure before longer-term benefits are realized

The takeaway: how an ingredient is delivered can be just as important as the ingredient itself.

NovaQSpheres® is redefining targeted delivery with a breakthrough approach to precision-timed, controlled release of ingredients that absorb too quickly and have a short half-life in the body.

Unlike conventional methods that deliver a large, single dose, NovaQSpheres® provides a customized, consistent, and gradual release, which optimizes performance, maintains efficacy, and enhances the consumer experience.

At Specnova, we’re committed to advancing ingredient science through technologies that deliver real results. NovaQSpheres® is one more step toward raising the standard of what’s possible in supplement innovation.

Thank you, Stephen Daniells, for writing the recent article “Liposomal delivery format may boost CoQ10 bioavailability” for NutraIngredients-USA.com, featuring Specnova’s latest published clinical study on LipoVantage® Lipsomal CoQ10.

We are very proud of the study results, which showed that LipoVantage Liposomal CoQ10 had a 31.3% higher Cmax and a 22.6% higher AUCO-24 over 24 hours compared to the standard formulation. What does this higher bioavailability mean? According to the study author, Dr. Ralf Jäger, MBA, FISSN, "Higher and faster plasma exposure matters because CoQ10’s benefits generally scale with sustained tissue availability. A better-absorbed form can:
• reach target levels with a lower dose;
• support populations with impaired fat absorption;
• provide a head start before longitudinal benefits that typically emerge over weeks.

Our mission has always been to push beyond the conventional, and as our founder and CEO, Sebastian Balcombe, put it:

“A lot of companies in our industry are just looking at the published literature that’s out there … We don’t build our ingredients based off old existing data. We go and do the discovery work. We’re pushing that envelope on all our ingredients and technologies.”

A big thank you to Claudia Adrien and NutraIngredients-USA.com for this insightful article. It’s rewarding to see Specnova’s journey in innovation and patent strategy featured so thoughtfully.
