摘要:
Methods of maintaining and/or attenuating a decline in the quality of life of a mammal comprising the step of administering to the mammal a composition comprising an effective amount of mannoheptulose wherein the effective amount of mannoheptulose provides a dosage to the mammal on a daily basis from about 0.001 gram per kilogram of body weight of the mammal to about 1 gram per kilogram of body weight of the mammal.

Disclosed herein are methods of promoting weight control in a companion animal comprising orally administering one or more non-glyceryl derivatives of C17 or greater fatty acids. Also disclosed are methods for promoting weight control in a human comprising orally administering non-glyceryl derivatives of C17 or greater fatty acids, wherein the fatty acid derivatives do not cause the human to reduce food consumption. Further disclosed are methods for promoting weight control in a human or companion animal comprising orally administering lotus leaf extract. Further disclosed are dietary compositions for promoting weight control in a companion animal., wherein such compositions comprise one or more of the non-glyceryl derivatives of C17 or greater fatty acids and the lotus leaf extract.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for treating abnormal glucose metabolism and insulin resistance in an animal by feeding a diet comprising high protein and moderate amounts of carbohydrate and fat. The invention also provides a method for treating conditions associated with insulin resistance or decreased longevity by feeding an animal such diets.

A process is provided for promoting bone modeling and chondrocyte functioning in growing canines. The process includes administering to a growing canine a pet food composition which includes an appropriate amount and ratio of dietary n-6 and n-3 fatty acids. The composition can further include a source of protein, a source of fat, a source of fiber, and a source of carbohydrates. Use of the preferred concentrations of n-6 and n-3 fatty acids can promote synthesis and tissue accumulation of down regulating elements of inflamation, which stimulate bone formation and optimize bone modeling.
摘要:
The present invention is based on the discovery that mannoheptulose (mHep) reduces or inhibits the differentiation process of fat stem cells into adipocytes so as to decrease the body's fat storage capacity. Compositions comprising a mHep, process of making the compositions, and methods of using the compositions for treating or preventing overweight and obesity in a mammal, such as, for example, a growing pet (e.g., puppy, kitten), or a spayed/neutered pet, are encompassed by the present invention.
摘要:
Compositions containing one or more compounds with inhibitory effect on a 5-HT3a and/or NK-1 receptor are effective for preventing or treating idiopathic vomiting in a mammal.
摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions containing plant materials or extracts with inhibitory effect on a 5-HT3a and/or NK-1 receptor for preventing or treating idiopathic vomiting.
摘要:
A package for large volumes of flowable solids may comprise 2 or more distinct packages of smaller volume. The 2 or more distinct packages may be bound together to minimize changes in center of gravity during handling. The packages may be bound together by an overwrap. The overwrap may have discontinuities. A method of packaging large volumes of flowable solids by temporarily reducing effective headspace to minimize changes in center of gravity during handling.
