Provided herein is a composition comprising: a) about 25% up to about 75% of a plasmolysed micro-organism by weight of the total weight of the composition; b) about at least greater than 20% up to about 60% by weight flavor or fragrance, of the total weight of the composition c) about 1% up to about 25% desiccant; d) about 4% up to about <10% water; wherein the mean particle size distribution by weight of the composition is about greater than 100 micrometer up to about 1 millimeter.

Provided herein are dietary supplement compositions comprising a plurality of beadlets and an oil. Provided herein are also dietary supplement compositions comprising a plurality of mini-tabs and oil. The beadlets or mini-tabs comprise at least one nutrient that is miscible in aqueous solution, and the oil comprises at least one fat-soluble nutrient. The composition may be contained within one or more capsules, and be packaged with a scented insert.

The present invention relates to dry particulate encapsulation compositions comprising a water-insoluble matrix comprising at least 70% by weight of proteins, based on the total weight of the matrix and a moisture content of about 5 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the matrix and an encapsulate encapsulated in the matrix, wherein the matrix once wetted in a clear colorless aqueous solution or in mineral oil has a lightness value (L*) greater than about 40, a color vividness or Chroma (C*) lower than about 33 and a hue angle between about 70 and 90. The encapsulation compositions of the present invention are useful in encapsulating dyes, medications and vitamins. Fine particulate encapsulation compositions comprising natural dyes can be used in lieu of artificial lakes in confectionery, cosmetics and caplets color coatings.

Disclosed is a method for making and using insoluble, biodegradable, nanoparticles containing the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA in selected ratios. Tests show a surprising effect that the nanoformulation is twice as potent and at least five times more sustained leading to at least tenfold (25) higher bioavailability at equal dose (1% v/v).
