摘要:
The invention pertains to a plant or vegetable pulp composition comprising: a) plant or vegetable pulp comprising 5-30 wt % cell wall materials comprising or consisting of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and/or pectin, and/or fragments and/or hydrolysates thereof, wherein said pulp is obtained by disrupting plant or vegetable cell membranes and removing at least part of the intracellular content; b) 45-85 wt % of one or more water-soluble carbohydrate(s) selected from the group consisting of inulin, oligofructose, fructo-oligosaccharide, galacto-oligosaccharide, glucose, maltose, maltodextrins, polydextrose, sucrose, fructose, lactose, isomaltulose and polyols, and/or combinations thereof; and c) 5-25 wt % water, all numbers based on total weight of said composition. The invention also pertains to the method of preparing such a composition, and the use in (human) food applications.
摘要:
A reduced digestible carbohydrate food made from a dough and consisting of a pasta, noodle or restructured rice particle, the food having a modified matrix structure that comprises discrete units of starch granules that comprise available carbohydrate, and a protective food film network that includes a non-digestible protective material, which surrounds the discrete units of starch granules to provide protection of a portion of the available carbohydrate from digestion in the small intestine when the reduced digestible carbohydrate food is eaten, the dough comprising a flour and the non-digestible protective material. Reducing the digestion of carbohydrates in a digestible carbohydrate-based material, and reducing the absorption of the digestion product(s) of carbohydrates (that is, simple sugars) within the small intestine. The undigested digestible carbohydrate and the unabsorbed digestion products pass through the small intestines and into the colon, where they are fermented, acting like dietary fibers.
摘要:
A composition containing a plurality of water-soluble nanoclusters ranging from 2 nm to 500 nm in diameter. Each of the nanoclusters contains one or more metal cations, one or more anions, and one or more water-soluble ligands. Also disclosed is a method of using the composition for treating various disorders such as anemia, heartburn, and diabetes.

Disclosed are improved sugar coatings for topically pre-sweetened food products that are sugar reduced whether in the form of a syrup or in the form of a dried coating. The syrup form is useful as an intermediate product in the preparation of pre-sweetened food products. In dry form, the present formulations can be a component part of a composite food product especially in the form of a topical coating or filling. The present invention is particularly suited for the preparation of R-T-E pre-sweetened cereals. The coating formulations comprise less than 70% sucrose, corn syrup and 1-20% non-hydrated integrated starch and preferably about 5-10% insoluble mineral salts each of particle size of about 50 microns.

A food material capable of suppressing the genesis of breast cancer or proliferation of terminal breast cancer. An extract of Agaricus Blazei Murill comprising an ingredient capable of suppressing the genesis of breast cancer or proliferation of terminal breast cancer is provided. This ingredient can be a chromatographic main elution fraction of 100 to 2000 molecular weight obtained through the steps of extracting the fruit body of Agaricus Blazei Murill with hot water, dialyzing the obtained extract and subjecting the obtained dialysis external fluid to chromatography. Alternatively, the above ingredient can be a dialysis external fluid obtained through the steps of extracting the fruit body of Agaricus Blazei Murill with hot water, adding ethanol to the obtained extract to thereby obtain precipitates, and dissolving the precipitates in water and dialyzing the resultant solution.

The invention is directed to the use of an alternan as an ingredient for acidic foodstuffs and to an acidic foodstuff comprising alternan as ingredient. The invention is also directed to the use of alternan as a heat stable ingredient in a foodstuff formulation, and to a foodstuff comprising alternan as ingredient, wherein the foodstuff was subjected to a heating step during its manufacture.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for a food binder that, when blended with a solid nut blend, provides a cohesive shelf-stable low water activity product that is chewy and has high lubricity (i.e., not tooth-compacting). One embodiment of a binder composition can have an aqueous based syrup in a range from about 33 to 74 percent weight; sucrose in a range from about 10 to 35 percent weight; polyhydric alcohol in a range from about 2 to 20 percent weight; fat in a range from about 2 to 30 percent weight; and an emulsifier in the range from about 0.5 to 2 percent weight. In a preferred embodiment, the syrup/sucrose:fat:polyhydric alcohol ratio is about 9:3:1 respectively by weight. Also, in a product using the binder, the binder can be in the range of about 25 to 35 percent weight and have an Aw less than about 0.35.
摘要:
The objects of the present invention are to provide a method for inhibiting the coloration of a syrupy sweetener, comprising a reducing saccharide together with a non-reducing oligosaccharide having a β-fructofuranosidic linkage, without deteriorating the taste inherent to the syrupy sweetener; and to provide a syrupy sweetener, comprising a reducing saccharide together with a non-reducing oligosaccharide having a β-fructofuranosidic linkage, which is stabilized by the method. The present invention attains the above objects by providing a method for inhibiting the coloring of a syrupy sweetener, comprising a reducing saccharide together with a non-reducing oligosaccharide having a β-fructofuranosidic linkage, which comprises a step of incorporating a lactate into the syrupy sweetener, and by providing a syrupy sweetener, comprising a reducing saccharide together with a non-reducing oligosaccharide having a β-fructofuranosidic linkage, which is stabilized by the method.
摘要:
The present invention provides a binder syrup comprising polydextrose, crystalline fructose and glycerin. The binder syrup has a low water activity of less than 0.55 and provides a significant amount of fiber. The binder syrup is disposed on particulates, such as whole grains, rolled oats, and fruit pieces, to form food products, such as ready-to-eat cereals and granola bars. The binder syrup also provides a desirable taste and maintains a chewy texture when used in the food products.
