FAQ
frequently asked Questions
What does micellization mean?
Our patented and exclusive micelle technology is a process in which lipid substances that are poorly absorbed by the body are enclosed in a water-soluble shell, thus imitating the body's own micelles.
What does body optimized mean?
Thanks to our revolutionary patent, which reduces plant substances into micelles, the maximum bioavailability of the product is guaranteed. The body can thus directly absorb and process almost 100% of poorly soluble substances.
Are the products suitable for vegans?
All ingredients used are 100% plant-based and vegan - without compromise. Our products do not contain milk, eggs, nuts, fish, shellfish, soy or wheat. We do not use any preservatives or similar.
What is a dietary supplement?
According to sectoral legislation (2002/46/EC), a food supplement is a product intended to complement the general diet and represents a concentrated source of nutrients such as vitamins and minerals or other substances with nutritional and physiological effects.
When is it recommended to take dietary supplements?
Dietary supplements can be taken at any time of the year, as they complement the nutrients that the body cannot absorb from food alone. There are some specific situations in which they are highly recommended: in pregnancy, for the elderly who do not eat enough and properly, for brain health to prevent dementia, for physical stress, weakness and for athletes to achieve high performance.
What makes our nutritional supplements different from others on the market?
Our nutritional supplements are developed and produced using a unique manufacturing process. The patented technology used allows the body to absorb almost 100% of substances that are barely soluble in water, thus making it possible to utilize all the benefits and effects of the vitamins and plant substances used.
Compared to other suppliers, BioExcellence products are unique because the body can absorb almost 100% of the active ingredients and some of our products recognize weakened cells in your body and act specifically there. In addition, all ingredients are 100% plant-based and vegan - without compromise.
Vitamin and herbal preparations in other forms (powder, tablets, etc.) have a very low absorption rate (bioavailability) and are sometimes not even stated. This means that you can never be sure how many percent of the active ingredients actually reach the body. And what cannot be absorbed is simply excreted without having any effect.
In addition, dietary supplements in tablet or capsule form, as well as other manufacturing processes based on similar technology, often contain harmful additives. These include artificial emulsifiers, binders, release agents, added sugar, flavorings, colorings, preservatives and many more. These additives can lead to side effects.
Can different products be taken at the same time?
Yes, you can combine several products.
How are the products taken?
You can place the drops directly under your tongue or dissolve them in a glass of water or other drinkable liquids, such as tea, fruit juice or milk.
Are dietary supplements a meal replacement?
The supplement is not a meal replacement, but contains those substances that the body cannot absorb and without which it could become ill.
Does someone who follows a vegan/vegetarian diet need to take additional vitamins?
Yes, since it is not possible to reach the normal requirements of some vitamins such as vitamin B12, it is advisable to take it through supplements.
Can children take dietary supplements?
Yes, it is important to take them to ensure the correct development of the child. Food supplements are also very important for all those children who have to deal with numerous school and sports commitments every day, to strengthen the body's immune system and to meet the daily need for vitamins, especially in case of loss of appetite.
What is a nutrient deficiency?
A nutrient deficiency occurs when the intake of one or more nutrients is not sufficient to meet the body's daily needs.
What does bioavailability mean?
You can recognize one of the most important quality differences of dietary supplements in their bioavailability. Bioavailability is expressed as a percentage. This value indicates how many percent of an active ingredient can actually be absorbed by the body. We are therefore talking about the absorption rate.
If the bioavailability is, for example, 40 percent, then only 40 percent of the active ingredients enter your body. The remaining 60 percent are excreted unprocessed. Therefore, the higher the bioavailability value, the better the absorption.
Can overdose occur?
No. There is no risk of overdose with any of our products. This is unique and is made possible thanks to the patented micellar technology used in production. Your body therefore only absorbs as much of the active ingredients as it actually needs.
Do the supplements contain gluten and/or lactose?
No, Bioexcellence products do not contain gluten or lactose.
What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants are natural compounds found in some foods. They help inactivate free radicals that are responsible for the development of pathogens (the cause of various diseases). Most antioxidants are found in fruits and vegetables and can be taken with food. However, cooking methods and environmental pollution often compromise the integrity of these nutrients. For this reason, the use of antioxidants is highly recommended.
How are your products made?
Our products are manufactured using our patented and exclusive micellar technology, which encloses the lipid substances that are poorly absorbed by the body in a water-soluble shell. The body can therefore absorb substances almost 100%.
The raw materials used for production come from controlled sources and are subject to strict selection criteria. We import the majority of the processed raw materials directly from the manufacturers themselves. We do not use any additives such as glycol, glycerin, polysorbates or preservatives, but only use water and gum arabic.
Our products are manufactured exclusively in Switzerland and meet the highest quality standards. Our production facility is of course GMP-certified. Thanks to our close cooperation with our partner laboratory, we can offer all of our products flexibly and in the highest quality and purity.
How does the product assimilation process take place?
The micellized substances are absorbed by the body through the active ingredient, which enters the bloodstream without causing any harm to the body and develops its effect and effectiveness thanks to its water-soluble structure. In this way, the vitamins and plant substances used achieve a bioavailability of almost 100%, which is twenty times higher than that of conventional food supplements.
How do micelles work?
Micelles are naturally occurring molecules. Your body even forms micelles itself when digesting fat. However, a lot of energy is used to do this. Micelles have an important function: They make fat-soluble active ingredients such as curcumin and frankincense water-soluble so that your body can absorb and process the active ingredient. To do this, the micelles surround the fat-soluble curcumin, for example, and pack it in a water-soluble shell. Your body can now absorb the "encased" curcumin quickly and easily and process the active ingredients.
There are also many nutrients that are generally water-soluble but still dissolve very poorly in water. This includes vitamin B12, for example. The micelles ensure that even vitamin B12, which is poorly soluble in water, simply dissolves in water. This means that your body absorbs it almost 100 percent.
What is micellar technology?
Our patented and exclusive micelle technology is a process that encloses lipid substances that are poorly absorbed by the body in a water-soluble shell. The micelles present in our intestines, produced by the body for the digestion of fats with a great expenditure of energy and time, cannot retain all the active ingredients, so many of them are excreted. And here, thanks to our revolutionary patent that reduces plant substances in micelles, we can guarantee the maximum bioavailability of the product. The body can thus directly absorb and process poorly soluble substances almost 100%.
This manufacturing process is patented several times, is unique worldwide and has been awarded one of the highest possible innovation prizes. We ensure that our products do not contain any heavy metals or pesticides and you can rely on quality ingredients.
