PotentOnion™ is a standardized extract of onions
providing quercetin in the highly bioavailable
glycosylated form. The product uses the Flash-Détente™
technology which preserves the polyphenols due to the
inhibition of oxidation. PotentOnion™ is a whole food, non-GMO product.
PLT offers two specs :
30% Polyphenols,
10%
Free Quercetin, 15% Quercetin glycosylated derivatives
(*)
10% Polyphenols,
2.5% Free Quercetin, 5% Quercetin glycosylated
derivatives (*)
* all minimums
These exceptional polyphenolic ingredients are obtained
by using a patented phytonutrient extraction method called
Flash-Détente™ Technology. This process creates food extracts
with improved sensorial, physical and nutritional characteristics.
The fresh plant material is rapidly heated to avoid browning
caused by oxidative enzymes. The material is then “flashed”
under extreme vacuum. This abrupt difference in pressures
causes the breakdown of the cellular tissues, resulting
in superior release of polyphenols from the plant cell during
pressing.
- Phytonutrients are more available
- the pressure change breaks down the tissue, releasing
phytonutrients such as polyphenols or carotenoids
- this method results in greater efficiency and yield
- the polyphenol profile is similar to the food source
