摘要:
The present invention is based on the finding that free amino acids can both negatively or positively influence overall taste of free amino acid-based enteral nutritional compositions, and the amino acids can thus be categorized. A striking balance of both categories of amino acids to arrive at amino acid-based nutritional composition with improved taste, yet not compromising the (regulatory) dietary restrictions on essential amino acids and conditionally essential amino acids.
摘要:
A method of preparing nutritionally fortified yeast comprising: a) incubating yeast with at least one fermentable substrate under conditions suitable for achieving fermentation; b) isolating the yeast after fermentation; c) combining the isolated yeast with at least one micronutrient selected from vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants to obtain nutritionally fortified yeast; and d) drying the nutritionally fortified yeast. The method allows high levels of micronutrient retention by the yeast such that the nutritionally fortified yeast obtained by the method is a useful vehicle for supplementing foods with micronutrients.
摘要:
A nutraceutical composition comprises one or more plant extracts and/or derivatives thereof, one or more vitamins and/or minerals, one or more fungus, algae and/or lichen, and one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers. The nutraceutical composition may further comprise one or more amino acids and/or derivatives thereof. The one or more plant extracts, the one or more vitamins or minerals, the one or more fungus, algae or lichen, and optionally, the one or more amino acids and/or derivatives thereof are present in amount sufficient to treat or improve sexual dysfunction in a subject.
摘要:
The invention relates to the use of at least one amino acid, selected from the group of histidine, lysine, and threonine in the manufacture of a composition for use in the treatment of a pervasive development disorder, a neurogenetic syndrome associated with a pervasive development disorder or a symptom of a pervasive development disorder. The invention further relates to a food product comprising histidine, lysine, and/or threonine, to a supplement comprising histidine, lysine, and/or threonine and to a kit of parts comprising histidine, lysine, and/or threonine.
摘要:
The present invention relates to dietary compositions comprising reduced level of methionine, tryptophan, all amino acids, or protein, dietary compositions comprising glycerol as a substitute for monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides, and hypocaloric or calorie free diets with reduced level of energy, carbohydrates, or protein. Also disclosed are methods of using these compositions and diets, as well as fasting, to protect subjects against chemotherapy, radiotherapy, oxidative stress, or aging.
摘要:
The invention relates to the novel use of ergothioneine and preferably, L ergothioneine, as a nutritional additive and preservative in foods, medicines, and/or beverages. According to the invention, the powerful antioxidant ergothioneine was found to be very stable over time in and to have no deleterious effects on taste or consistency of food and beverages even when stored, over a period of several years. In a preferred embodiment, ergothioneine may be used as a replacement for all or part of the antimicrobial/preservative sulfur dioxide or other sulfites traditionally used in the wine making process.
摘要:
It has now been found that after administration to a diseased person or person that is at risk for developing such disease of a neutraceutical or pharmaceutical composition that comprises a/ a lipid fraction comprising at least one of docosahexaneoic acid (DHA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA); b/ a protein fraction comprising proteinaceous material from non-human origin which provide at least cysteine and/or taurine; and c/ a mineral fraction comprising at least one of manganese and molybdene, the health of these persons improves. Membrane function of several types of mammalian cells improves, which allows efficient treatment of immune related disorders, such as allergy, autoimmune diseases, cancer, cognitive dysfunction and other diseases of the nervous system, neuropathies, such as diabetic neuropathies and neuropathic pains, neuronal damage during insulin resistance, and gut diseases and support of the development of gut and lung function during growth or recovery.

摘要:
A carotenoid substance called zeaxanthin, when ingested orally at suitable dosages such as 30 to 100 mg/day for a span of 1 to 2 weeks, can provide effective protection against sunburns, and can give skin a darker tint that emulates a healthy suntan. In tests involving adults, it was found that zeaxanthin dosages of 30 to about 80 mg per day were sufficient to induce: (i) a mild but noticeable tinting, shading, or darkening of skin color, comparable to a mild suntan; (ii) a substantial increase in the person's ability to withstand elevated levels of sun or UV exposure without any subsequent pain or discomfort, and without the subsequent peeling and flaking that characterizes sunburns; and, (iii) an increased ability of reddened and sunburned skin to convert into intact skin that looks browned and healthily tanned. By reducing the amount of exposure to sunlight (or tanning lights) that are required to achieve a desired level of tanning, zeaxanthin can reduce the risks of skin cancer, premature aging or wrinkling, and similar skin problems. Since zeaxanthin also has retina-protecting properties and reduces the risk of a disease called macular degeneration, oral ingestion of these dosages of a zeaxanthin to enhance a tanned appearance and/or to protect against sun damage is believed to pose no health risks, and can offer several benefits due to the anti-oxidant and other activities of zeaxanthin.
