The M-Institute’s Proprietary Technology: The Microgrinder
The cornerstone of the m-Institute’s technology platform is its proprietary Microgrinder. With over 15 years of research and development, the Microgrinder offers a uniquely innovative solution to grind natural substances resulting in pure, highly bioactive powders rich in significantly reduced-size particle elements, enabling better absorption by human and animal cells. By utilizing a milling system which preserves more nutrients, maximizes product efficiency, prevents waste, saves time and costs, and creates high-quality products, the Microgrinder revolutionizes the way natural substances are processed.
Primary Objectives
The primary aim of grinding natural substances is to achieve smaller particle sizes for improved absorption and solubility, while retaining active compounds and nutrients. The Microgrinder, through specialized technology, consistently produces particles ranging from 5-8 μm, ensuring optimal content selection and a pure extract rich in bioactive elements. Developed by the m-Institute, it enhances the bioavailability of natural products, crucial for maximizing nutrient utilization and storage in the body. Better bioavailability means better bioaccessibility, absorption, metabolism, and bioactivity.
The Issue with Traditional Practices
Traditional milling technologies often damage sensitive materials with high concentrations of bioactive components due to friction and heat, which can often reach temperatures of 25-80°C, during the process of trying to obtain smaller particle sizes. This can lead to loss of bioactivity and decreased product efficacy.
Our Revolutionary Innovation
In contrast, the Microgrinder utilizes significantly less heat, resulting in increased bioactivity and bioavailability of the ground products while preserving the phytochemical and nutritional integrity of the ground product. Smaller particle sizes facilitate greater bioavailability and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Our environmentally friendly technology allows for the utilization of inedible or unusable co-products (often called waste), which can be re-used and transformed into new marketable products.
