biologically absorbed and broad-spectrum Explanation: Another option. The translated sentence would end up something like this: "... macronutrient with non-hygroscopic features, which meant it was a highly efficient, biologically absorbed and broad-spectrum nutrient." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2016-10-27 18:01:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Re: Liz's reference. "Biological value (valor biológico, denominado abreviadamente BV del inglés... o VB) ) is a measure of the proportion of absorbed protein from a food which becomes incorporated into the proteins of the organism's body." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2016-10-27 18:03:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I assume that if they had wanted to use the term "biological value" specifically, the Spanish sentence would have included 'valor biológico' somewhere. Perhaps I'm mistaken. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2016-10-27 18:07:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://veterinarynews.dvm360.com/beta-carotene-essential-nut...
