摘要:
The invention concerns a method for extracting and fractionating fats contained in a raw material, characterized in that it comprises at least a step which consists in using an extraction solvent consisting of at least a hydrofluoroether of general formula (I): CnF2n+1OCmH2m+1, wherein: n ranges between 3 and 6 and m ranges between 1 and 5 and at least a separation step enabling to obtain a raw extract of fats rich in unsaponifiable substances and optionally, in free fatty acids and a insoluble extraction fraction.

A method of enhancing physical performance during exercise by administering an amount of a grape extract effective to treat a subject. A preferred grape extract comprises a concentration of flavanol monomers of greater than about 5% by weight, and more preferably within a range from about 12% by weight to about 50% by weight, and a concentration of flavanol dimers preferably greater than about 2% by weight, and more preferably within a range from about 6% by weight to about 20% by weight. The flavanol monomers preferably include catechin, epicatechin, epicatechin gallate, and gallic acid. The flavanol dimers preferably include procyanidin B1, procyanidin B2, procyanidin B3, procyanidin B4, and procyanidin B2-O-gallate.
摘要:
The invention concerns a cosmetic composition comprising at least an aromatic compound and at least an agent for dissolving said aromatic compound, characterized in that said dissolving agent consists of perfluorinated hydrofluoroether preferably having a total number of carbon atoms not less than 5 and consisting of a perfluoroalkane chain, branched or not, cyclized or not, bound to an alkoxy group, said alkoxy group having a number of atom(s) between 1 and 7, said hydrofluoroether having a boiling point in atmospheric pressure ranging between +15° C. and +100° C. The invention enables the replacement of ethanol conventionally used in cosmetic compositions by at least one hydrofluoroether compound.

摘要:
A method of controlling body weight in humans by administering an amount of decaffeinated green coffee extract effective to treat a subject. A preferred green coffee extract contains a ratio of 5-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA) and total chlorogenic acids (tCGA) (5-CQA/tCGA) of between about 0.2 and 0.3. More preferably, the concentration of tCGA is greater than about 45% and the concentration of 5-CQA is less than about 10%. A preferred method of administration consists of administering between about 200 mg and about 1,000 mg per day, more preferably administering about 400 mg per day.
