Abstract:
Russell Van de Casteele works in the tiny world of nanotechnology. His startup company, Health Plus International Inc., which is based at the Florida Atlantic University Research and Development Park in Boca Raton, has used nanotechnology to come up with a new way to take vitamins. The result is a spray taken orally that delivers vitamin supplements more quickly to the bloodstream. They are absorbed through the inner lining of the cheek rather than swallowed like a pill.
