Effect of nano-delivery systems on the bioavailability and tissue biodistribution of vitamin E tocotrienols.

The potentials of tocotrienols as nutraceutical ingredient are largely understated due to low oral bioavailability, which is a common problem associated with fat-soluble bioactive compounds.
