The oral rehydration composition can be used on humans or animals that suffer from diarrhea.
Abstract:
A partial hydrolysate of cereal protein wherein the hydrolysate has a degree of hydrolysis between 9 and 18%, products containing such a partial hydrolysate and a method for the primary prevention of allergic reactions to cereal protein in a young mammal using such a partial hydrolysate are disclosed.
Abstract:
Compositions containing folic acid in combination with 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid are disclosed, as well as compositions containing folic acid, 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid and/or 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid polyglutamate and a dietary component and/or a dietary preparation and the use thereof.
Abstract:
This invention provides a method for preparing a liquid composition of N- [N- (3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L- alpha -aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester comprising the steps of (a) providing a liquid carrier; and (b) mixing N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L- alpha -aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester with said liquid carrier in a ratio of up to 3:2 by weight to produce a liquid composition. The resulting liquid carrier in a ratio of up to 3:2 by weight to produce a liquid composition. The resulting liquid composition would be capable of fully dissolving or suspending neotame and may be mixed with or added to a food or beverage product in an amount effective to sweeten the food or beverage product. This invention is also directed to the novel liquid compositions prepared by the beverage of this invention and to the food and beverage products sweetened thereby. The liquid carriers of this invention include water, alcohol and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
This invention provides methods of infusing compositions including phytochemicals, nutraceuticals such as vitamins, herbal extracts, and medicinals into food products, including, e.g., juices, fruits, vegetables, and meats, etc. The resulting infused food products are consumable products which are helpful in alleviating dietary insufficiency and/or to prevent or treat diseases such as cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, etc.
Abstract:
A dietary health management system for administration to a patient having at least one diet-responsive condition such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cancer, diabetes, and combinations thereof. In particular, the system comprises a plurality of prepackaged meals which may provide dietary fiber in the range of about 20 to 30 grams; vitamins and minerals at about 100 % USRDA; less than about 2400 mg of sodium; at least about 3500 mg of potassium; less than about 96 grams of simple sugars; protein, such about 20 to 30 % of caloric intake is derived from protein; and fat, such that about 15 to 20 % of caloric intake is derived from fat. Consumption of a daily diet comprising a plurality of the individual meals supplies the patient with the desired total daily calorie intake, improved quality of life, and sufficient nutritional enhancement to facilitate the management of the diet-responsive condition.

Abstract:
The invention is directed to a method of producing deamidated barley proteins by extracting protein from barley using an alcohol or alkaline; treating the extracted protein with an alkaline or acidic solution for a sufficient time and temperature for partial deamidation; and recovering partially deamidated protein from the solution. The partially deamidated protein has improved functional properties with respect to solubility, and emulsifying and foaming properties at acidic and neutral pHs compared to those of a non-deamidated protein.
Abstract:
The present process is directed to an egg-like food product which comprises a soy protein containing component and egg white, the average particle size being less than about 100 microns, the soy protein containing component being present in at least 10% by weight of the composition and to the process of preparing same.
