摘要:
A composition for the relief of heat stress, particularly for restoration of electrolyte balance due to passive exposure to heat resulting in excessive transpiration/perspiration, without strenuous physical activity, contains predetermined levels of selected electrolytes including, in part by weight, sodium ion not exceeding 250 parts, at least 100 parts of potassium ion, at least 100 parts of magnesium ion, and carbohydrates not exceeding 2.5% by weight, as needed for organoleptic purposes only. The composition can further include up to 30 parts of zinc, up to 10 parts of manganese, and from 65 to 400 parts of calcium. Furthermore, the composition can contain oligoelements, dermoprotective vitamins and anti-oxidants so as to compensate for the chemical changes which might occur in the skin of a person passively exposed to heat.

摘要:
The invention relates to the use of specific protein and/or peptide fractions having a high aspartate content for regulating plasma glucose concentrations and increasing insulin sensitivity in a mammal. The invention relates to a complete food fortified with aspartate equivalents as well as a supplement rich in aspartate equivalents that is given simultaneously with or even minutes up to an hour prior to the consumption of a meal comprising glucose. The nutritional or pharmaceutical composition contains at least one protein having a high aspartate content, preferably of soy or dairy origin, which is further enriched with aspartate equivalents from another protein and/or free aspartate equivalents. The protein fraction comprises glutamate equivalents in a weight ratio of aspartate equivalents to glutamate equivalents (asp:glu) between 0.41:1 and 5:1.
摘要:
The present invention provides a composition containing α-lipoic acid and N-acetylcysteine as active ingredients. The mixed composition of α-lipoic acid and N-acetylcysteine of the present invention can reduce a risk of side effects due to drugs with synergetic effects due to merge administration of two drugs, and can be usefully used for preventing or treating obesity with excellent effects of inhibiting a weight gain compared to each single composition containing α-lipoic acid or N-acetylcysteine.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a taste masking agent selected from the group of starch; cellulose; xanthan gum; gellan gum; alginate; galactomannans such as fenugreek, guar gum, tara gum, locust bean gum, and cassia gum; gum karaya; gum tragacanth; carrageenan; and mixture thereof, for improving one or more of mouth feel, taste, aftertaste and smell of a liquid aqueous nutritional composition comprising a nucleoside and/or a nucleotide. It also relates to a nutritional composition comprising an unsavory nucleoside and/or nucleotide component, having improved sensory characteristics such as improved mouth feel, taste, aftertaste and smell. In particular, it relates to a composition comprising said unsavory nucleoside and/or nucleotide component, in particular comprising an uridine-containing nucleoside and/or a nucleotide in combination with an unsavory edible oil, such as a fish oil.
