About this trial
The aim of this study is to investigate phenolic compounds from GreenArt, a baccharis-type propolis ingredient, bioavailability and nutrikinetics by measuring urinary excretion and metabolic profile over 48h by means of high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The study follows a cross-over, double-blind, randomized and placebo control design on 10 healthy subjects.
