Nowadays, due to the interest in consuming extra-beneficial foods and the increasing spread of cardiovascular diseases, the desire to consume extra-beneficial products has increased. Therefore, researchers are looking for the optimization of new formulations of products with practical features in this direction. The study aimed to produce a functional energy drink containing tannin-linoleic acid-conjugated chitosome. After extracting bioactive compounds (especially tannin) from pomegranate peel, they were included in the structure of chitosomes along with conjugated linoleic acid. The results showed the significant effect of different concentrations of pomegranate biological extract on the oxidative stability of linoleic acid. The results showed the significant effect of different concentrations of pomegranate biological extract on the oxidative stability of linoleic acid. The examination of nano-chitosome groups showed the presence of structures in pomegranate bioactive along with linoleic acid in chitosomes. The uniformly chitosan spherical particles were observed with sizes of 77.66 and 79.90 nm. The addition of nano chitosomes showed a significant increase in pH (decrease in acidity), increase in turbidity, viscosity, two phases, and phenolic content. Also, a decrease in the L* value and an increase in a* and b* values were reported. The present results showed that biopolymers play a key role in the stability of the liposome membrane structure. They have a stable release of molecules trapped by a spatial barrier on the surface. This nano chitosome will provide a potential platform for the carrier's design for nutrients or preservatives, to increase the shelf life and safety of food matrices.
