Aquanova AG

What do you think about this?

Aquanova AG
of Germany uses their patented nanotechnology to stabilize ingredients in foods, health products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

For instance, some food additives including vitamins, colorants, and preservatives are lipophilic (only dissolve in fat). The Aquanova AG nanoparticles are ambiphilic (dissolve in water or fat). The company can produce energy drinks and nutritional drinks (functional food) which are cyrstal clear, although loaded with nanoparticles of ingredients.

What are your thoughts? Is this an amazing step forward?

That's crazy...and a little creepy. But it could have potential--what exactly are these nanoparticles made of?
