Suggested is a delivery system for food additives, comprising or consisting of the following components: (a) at least one food additive dissolved in a solvent and (b) at least one emulsifier and/or at least one hydrocolloid dissolved in water,
characterized in that the delivery system is an oil-in-water emulsion.

Novel safflower oil emulsion and method of preparation. The safflower oil is 100% all natural, non-genetically modified organism (GMO), expeller pressed, solvent free, linoleic fatty acid rich oil wherein the linoleic fatty acid content is in a range from approximately 70% to approximately 80% of the total safflower oil that is mixed with a purified water and a mixture of at least one of an emulsifier, a flavoring, a natural sweetener, a natural coloring agent, and a gum. The mixture is blended to provide a stable emulsion that has the rich taste of a nutritious fruit smoothie that increases metabolism to support a healthy weight management program. The resulting dietary supplement is bioavailable and easily absorbed by the consumer of the emulsified safflower oil dietary supplement.
