摘要:
A composition and method of use applicable to mitigate the effects of human fatigue that includes a base composition of at least one finely powdered simple sugar and at least one finely powdered polysaccharide, a flavoring, a hinder and a single dose packaging. The powdered composition is made available in a variety of flavors within a tubular package that aids in pouring the dry contents directly into the mouth without waste, where it is easily dissolved and assimilated by the body.

Methods and products for delivering a medicament or agent to an individual are provided. The product includes a coating having a medicament or agent. The medicament or agent is present within the coating that surrounds a center comprising a gum base. By chewing the product, the medicament or agent is released from the product. Continuing to chew the product creates a pressure within the buccal cavity forcing the agent or medicament directly into the systemic system of the individual through the oral mucosa contained in the buccal cavity. This greatly enhances the absorption of the drug into the systemic system as well as the bioavailability of the drug within the system.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for improving flavor quality and reducing water absorption of protein isolates, particularly soy protein concentrates. The method involves a surface treatment of the protein isolates with an aqueous solution containing a polysaccharide, in order to coat the protein isolates and block off the flavor of the protein molecule as well as serving as a moisture barrier. The treated protein isolates are then dried to a powder form. The resulting protein isolates are bland in taste, have a reduced water adsorption ratio as compared to the untreated protein isolate and can be used in a wide range of food products without flavor reversion.
摘要:
A novel encapsulated product is provided and includes: at least one pharmaceutical; at least one compressible material; and at least one tableting material; wherein the encapsulated product is in the form of a caplet having a diameter of from about 1 millimeter to about 7 millimeters and a length from about 1 millimeter to about 7 millimeters. A method for preparing the encapsulated product is also provided.
摘要:
This invention relates to compositions containing polyphenols, for example, cocoa polyphenols such as procyanidins, in combination with at least one cholesterol lowering agent, and methods for improving vascular health including treating and preventing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
摘要:
The invention relates to compositions, such as pharmaceuticals, foods, food additives, or dietary supplements, containing A-type procyanidins, and methods of use thereof, for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of a human or a veterinary animal to treat or prevent NO-responsive health conditions, treat hypertension, cardiovascular disease, coronary artery disease and/or vascular circulation disorders, prevent or reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, congestive heart failure and/or kidney failure, or to improve blood flow, for example renal blood flow. The composition may optionally contain an additional NO modulating agent and/or a cardiovascular-protective or therapeutic agent, or may be administered in combination with such an agent.
摘要:
Methods and products for delivering a medicament or agent to an individual are provided as well as methods for producing the product. The product includes a coating having a medicament or agent. The medicament or agent is present within the coating that surrounds a tableted center. The tableted center is defined by compressible excipients. By chewing the product, the medicament or agent is released from the product within the buccal cavity.
摘要:
Mixtures of fructose and lactose are useful for reducing caloric intake and glycemic index for individuals who are overweight, glucose-impaired, diabetic, or who just consume too large a fraction of their calories from “added sugars”. The fructose/lactose sweetener is included in the daily diet as a one-for-one replacement for “added sugars” in various edible formulations without sacrificing quality of taste. Sucrose can be used as a replacement for all or part of the fructose in the claimed sweetener to increase sweetness or improve certain functional properties without substantially changing caloric value. The claimed mixtures of fully-caloric sugars work synergistically to reduce available calories and blood sugar concentration. Specifically, fructose interferes strongly with normal small-intestinal absorption of lactose and interferes moderately with sucrose absorption, while lactose interferes with normal small-intestinal absorption of both sucrose and starch. Unabsorbed di- and oligosaccharides pass into the colon and cause increased growth of healthful bacteria, making the new sweetener useful as a prebiotic. No gastrointestinal symptoms of sugar intolerance were observed when the claimed sugar mixtures were ingested at normal dietary levels.

Disclosed are a color fading/discoloration preventive agent containing as its active ingredient a coumarin analog represented by general formula (1) below, a glycoside of that analog, or a plant extract containing the coumarin analog or its glycoside: (wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group or a methoxy group, R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group, and R1 and R2 are not both hydrogen atoms); and a color fading/discoloration preventive agent containing as its active ingredient a coumarin analog mixture obtained from the rind of citrus fruit, and particularly a coumarin analog mixture obtained from citrus cold press oil.
摘要:
Mixtures of fructose and lactose are useful for reducing caloric intake and glycemic index for individuals who are overweight, glucose-impaired, diabetic, or who just consume too large a fraction of their calories from nulladded sugarsnull. The fructose/lactose sweetener is included in the daily diet as a one-for-one replacement for nulladded sugarsnull in various edible formulations without sacrificing quality of taste. Sucrose can be used as a replacement for all or part of the fructose in the claimed sweetener to increase sweetness or improve certain functional properties without substantially changing caloric value. The claimed mixtures of fully-caloric sugars work synergistically to reduce available calories and blood sugar concentration. Specifically, fructose interferes strongly with normal small-intestinal absorption of lactose and interferes moderately with sucrose absorption, while lactose interferes with normal small-intestinal absorption of both sucrose and starch. Unabsorbed di- and oligosaccharides pass into the colon and cause increased growth of healthful bacteria, making the new sweetener useful as a prebiotic. No gastrointestinal symptoms of sugar intolerance were observed when the claimed sugar mixtures were ingested at normal dietary levels.
