Sucrosomial® Technology is backed by numerous scientific studies published in specialised journals, which demonstrate its efficacy and confirm its benefits in terms of:
The revolution of Sucrosomial® Technology
Sucrosomial® Technology is the scientific innovation that is transforming the way vitamins and minerals are delivered through dietary supplements.
Developed through years of research by PharmaNutra, this proprietary, patented technology allows certain essential nutrients to be delivered to the body, protecting them from stomach acid and ensuring that they reach the intestine, where they are more easily absorbed, without breaking down.
At the heart of this innovation is the Sucrosome®, a protective matrix that not only boosts absorption but also makes it possible to combine multiple ingredients, even in high doses, without compromising effectiveness or tolerability.
Thanks to this exclusive technology, Apportal® supplements stand apart: with 19 up to 22 nutrients in a single sachet, each formulation brings together the benefits of multiple supplements in one complete product.
What is a Sucrosome®?
The Sucrosome® is a structure consisting of:
a functional ingredient
a mineral, vitamin or active nutrient
a phospholipid matrix
a sucrose ester matrix
This structure protects nutrients from gastric acids and ensures their greater and more efficient intestinal absorption, without side effects.
An exclusive that makes the difference
Unlike conventional technologies, Sucrosomial® Technology:
- is patented and the exclusive property of PharmaNutra
- allows Sucrosomial® microelements to be combined with other functional ingredients in the same formula and without interference
- protects certain nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, from gastric acids
- does not cause side effects or stomach discomfort
- increases the absorption capacity of active ingredients, making them more effective
Why is it so effective?
Thanks to the protection offered by the Sucrosome® matrix, the nutrients contained within it:
- are not degraded in the stomach
- reach the intestine in an active form
- are absorbed in greater quantities and with an enhanced effect
All this translates into a lower risk of side effects and better tolerability, even in sensitive subjects.

The complete Apportal® range is just one of the successful applications of Sucrosomial® Technology.
This innovation has already proven its efficacy in other PharmaNutra products, first of all SiderAL®, the best-selling supplement in Italy*, based on Sucrosomial® iron.
Compared to traditional iron salts, Sucrosomial® iron ensures more efficient absorption, better tolerability, and eliminates the discomfort often linked to iron supplements, such as a metallic aftertaste.
Its advanced formulation also minimises common gastrointestinal issues like nausea and constipation, typically associated with regular iron supplements. Moreover, it preserves the balance of the intestinal microbiota, supporting the health of your gut flora.

FAQs about the Apportal® range and Sucrosomial® Technology
It is an innovative method for delivering functional ingredients (such as vitamins and minerals), protecting them as they pass through the stomach and enhancing their absorption in the body.
No. Sucrosomial® Technology is an exclusive patent of PharmaNutra. Only products like those in the Apportal® range can benefit from it.
Yes. The nutrients do not irritate the stomach because they are “protected” by the phospholipid and sucrose ester matrix.
No. Apportal® contains over 19 active ingredients, some of which are Sucrosomial® (for example, minerals – Selenium, Iron, Zinc, Magnesium and Iodine – and vitamins – Vitamin D3 and Vitamin B12 -), combined with other non-Sucrosomial® ingredients, essential for the well-being of the body and to provide it with energy when it needs it most. The combination of all these ingredients creates unique supplements that bring together the benefits and efficacy of multiple solutions in one product.
