Brief Summary

Scientific research on the beneficial effects of botanical extracts has led to a better understanding of the role of its bioactive compounds, but the bioavailability in human remains largely unknown. Indeed, the most of publications investigated the bioavailability of metabolites of spices in in vitro cells model or animal experiments but few clinical studies have been conducted. Therefore, the aim of this study is to characterize and quantify in blood, the main metabolite compounds of a botanical extract, following its administration by different routes (oral or sublingual) and with different preparations (extract or powder), in quantity equivalent to those having demonstrated biological properties.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • (AUC 0-t) : Area under the curve of the serum concentration of the main metabolites of the products.

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • AUC 0-t for the main metabolites of the products.

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Serum peak concentration (Cmax) of the metabolites of the tested products.

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Time to serum peak concentration (Tmax) of the metabolites of the tested products.

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Elimination half-life (T1/2) of serum metabolites of the tested products defined by the time required for the concentration of product metabolites to decrease to half of Cmax.

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Concentration of urinary crocetin (ng/mg of creatinine) of the tested products at the end of the visit

    185 min after product intake

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (4)

  • AUC(0-t) of the main volatile metabolite of the tested products in serum

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Cmax of the main volatile metabolite of the tested products in serum

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • Tmax of the main volatile metabolite of the tested products in serum

    From 0 to 180 min after product ingestion

  • +1 more other outcomes
