Tuning lipid digestibility and β-carotene bioaccessibility via β-sitosterol/γ-oryzanol ratios in oleogels.
Poor bioavailability of lipophilic nutrients remains a major challenge in oral delivery. This study investigated how β-sitosterol/γ-oryzanol (SiOr) ratios in canola oil-based oleogels modulate mechanical properties, lipid digestion, and β-carotene bioaccessibility. Among the tested formulations, Si4Or6 exhibited the hi...
