20100247734 | Methods for Making Nutritional Compositions Comprising Curcuminoids - Disclosed are nutritional compositions and methods for preparing the compositions, comprising fat, protein, and carbohydrate, including a combination of curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin, which combination is solubilized in a polar oil having an HLB value of from about 0.7 to about 14 wherein the weight ratio of the bisdemethoxycurcumin to the curcumin is from about 1:1 to about 1:7 and the weight ratio of the bisdemethoxycurcumin to the demethoxycurcumin is from about 1:1 to about 1:2.5. The composition provides a selected ratio of curcuminoids having improved biological activity, bioavailability, and reduced color impact. | 09-30-2010 |
20100249031 | Nutritional Composition Comprising Curcuminoids and Methods of Manufacture - Disclosed are nutritional compositions and methods for preparing the compositions, comprising fat, protein, and carbohydrate, including a combination of curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin, which combination is solubilized in a polar oil having an HLB value of from about 0.7 to about 14 wherein the weight ratio of the bisdemethoxycurcumin to the curcumin is from about 1:1 to about 1:7 and the weight ratio of the bisdemethoxycurcumin to the demethoxycurcumin is from about 1:1 to about 1:2.5. The composition provides a selected ratio of curcuminoids having improved biological activity, bioavailability, and reduced color impact. | 09-30-2010 |
20110082097 | AMINO ACID COMPOSITION FOR IMPROVING GLUCOSE TOLERANCE - Disclosed are compositions, including low-calorie beverages or liquids, comprising isoleucine, leucine, valine, cysteine, and methionine, in specified amounts, weight ratios, or both. The compositions are especially useful in treating individuals afflicted with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes. | 04-07-2011 |
20110259847 | BOTTLE PACKAGING FOR FLOWABLE PRODUCT - A bottle packaging includes a groove on the neck of a bottle with the groove spaced longitudinally from a shoulder of the bottle a distance greater than or equal to a width of the groove, and upper and lower portions of the neck may have outer transverse cross-sectional dimensions that are substantially equal to one another. An upper circumferential sidewall of the groove may be chamfered, while a lower circumferential sidewall may be concave. The bottle may be combined with an adapter such that when the adapter is releasably connected to the bottle, a lowermost rim of the adapter is spaced longitudinally from an upper reach of the groove. The adapter may include a detent on an inner surface thereof adapted to removably seat in the groove to releasably connect the adapter to the bottle. A closure member may include at least one of a detent and a sealing member removably seated in the groove. | 10-27-2011 |
20110305799 | SUBSTANTIALLY CLEAR NUTRITIONAL LIQUIDS COMPRISING CALCIUM HMB AND SOLUBLE PROTEIN - Disclosed are substantially clear nutritional liquids comprising protein and calcium HMB wherein soluble protein represents from about 65% to 100% by weight of total protein. The liquids have a pH of from about 2.8 to about 4.6 and may be manufactured as a hot fill product. The substantially clear nutritional liquids may also have a weight ratio of calcium HMB to soluble calcium of from 4.5:1 to 7.3:1. In some embodiments, the substantially clear nutritional liquids are substantially free of fat, and may optionally include isomaltulose and/or beta alanine. | 12-15-2011 |
20120258209 | ASEPTICALLY PACKAGED NUTRITIONAL CONCENTRATE - Disclosed are packaged compositions comprising an aseptically sterilized container and a sterilized, concentrated, nutritional liquid emulsion that is aseptically packaged and sealed within the container. Also disclosed are methods for making and using the packaged compositions. In some embodiments, the aseptically packaged, concentrated, nutritional liquid emulsions have a desirable flavor and aroma and have increased emulsion stability. | 10-11-2012 |
20130165394 | AMINO ACID COMPOSITION FOR IMPROVING GLUCOSE TOLERANCE - Disclosed are compositions, including low-calorie beverages or liquids, comprising isoleucine, leucine, valine, cysteine, and methionine, in specified amounts, weight ratios, or both. The compositions are especially useful in treating individuals afflicted with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes. | 06-27-2013 |
20130266700 | ULTRASONICALLY-ASSISTED EXTRUSION METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING POWDERED NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS - Disclosed are methods of manufacturing powdered nutritional products, including powdered infant formulas and powdered adult nutritional products, using extrusion. The methods include utilizing ultrasonic energy in the extruder during manufacturing. The application of ultrasonic energy to the extruder allows the fat globules present in raw materials to be effectively emulsified by hydrated protein present in the feed stream such that the resulting powdered extruded product has a low free fat level, is less susceptible to oxidation and rancidity, and can be reconstituted without substantial fat separation. | 10-10-2013 |
