Aqueous liquid or gel formulations of fat soluble vitamins, essential nutrients and other pharmaceutical agents have enhanced concentration of the active components relative to known compositions and therefore have enhanced bioavailability. The aqueous solutions or gels form a free flowing powder when they are absorbed on a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable solid carrier, such as silicon dioxide, maltodextrin, magnesium oxide, aluminum hydroxide, magnesium trisilicate, starch or sugars, or encapsulated by polymers such as gelatin, pectin, chitosan and the like. |
