摘要:
Foods or meals high in available carbohydrate such as sucrose or starch increase postprandial blood glucose concentrations. Repeated high post-prandial plasma glucose “spikes” are associated with an increased risk of developing type II diabetes. Unregulated glycemic excursions are undesirable, and any reduction or “blunting” of the post-prandial glucose concentration in blood is potentially beneficial. This invention relates to an edible composition for delay of intestinal glucose uptake through synergistic inhibition of both active sodium glucose co-transporter 1 (SGLT1) and passive glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) leading to flattening or blunting of the post-prandial glucose peak. In a first aspect of the invention, an edible composition is provided, in the form of a single serving of one or more unit dosages, wherein the edible composition comprises 20-2000, preferably 30-1000, most preferably 40-500 mg a 3,5-dihydroxy-trans-stilbene and 10-2000, preferably 20-1000, most preferably 40-500 mg flavonoid mono-glucoside or dihydrochalcone monoglucoside.
摘要:
A nutritional composition including an oxidizable component and a water-soluble plant extract is provided. The water-soluble plant extract includes rosmarinic acid and has a total phenolic content, such that a ratio of the total phenolic content to the rosmarinic acid is between about 1.1:1 to about 3.5:1. A method of reducing off-flavors and aromas in a nutritional composition having an oxidizable component is also provided.
