Abstract
A potassium supplement composition is disclosed comprising from 10 to 50% by weight of the composition of one or more mineral salts selected from the chloride, citrate, bicarbonate and di-phosphates of potassium with or without one or more sodium salts, with the proportion in equivalents of sodium, if any is present, not exceeding that of potassium, wherein from 25 to 50% by weight of the balance of the composition comprises a water-soluble, carbohydrate foodstuff ingredient, whilst from 50 to 75% by weight of said balance comprises an organic, potassium-containing foodstuff ingredient at least half of which is milk solids.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Potassium supplement composition
This invention relates to an improved potassium supplement composition and its preparation. There are a number of medical conditions that are treated by oral administration of potassium, e.g.
hypokalemia resulting from side-effects of diuretics, from excessive diarrhea and from excessive vomiting.
Potassium chloride pills are a well-known supplement, but are prone to ulcerate the intestinal tract, particularly if they are enteric-coated. Conventionally, this problem is tackled by administering the potassium chloride in dilute, aqueous solution.
However, this solution is singularly unpaletable and many patients are quite unable to take the usual dose of about 15-20 mEq.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved potassium-supplement composition comprising from 10 to 50% by weight of the composition of one or more mineral salts selected from the chloride, citrate, bicarbonate and diphosphates of potassium and sodium, with the proportion in equivalents of sodium, if any is present, not exceeding that of potassium, where from 25 to 50% by weight of the balance of the composition comprises a water-soluble ca rbo-hydrate foodstuff ingredient, whilst from 50 to 75% by weight of said balance comprises an organic, potassiumcontaining foodstuff ingredient at least half of which is milk solids, whilst the remainder, if any, of said potassium-containing foodstuff ingredient is a flavor enhancing, plant derived foodstuff.
This composition can be made to be dry, palatable and safe, and readily dispersible in water. It has an excellent taste and appeals to the patient as a food supplement rather than a medicine. Furthermore, by completing the anionic portion of the mineral salts ingredient with substantially equal portions of bicarbonate, citrate, and diphosphate, a better balance of anions more closely related to natural potassium sources can be obtained.
Preferably, the proportion of mineral salts is from 15 to 30% by weight of the composition and one quarter to one half of the salt ingredient is comprised by the chloride.
Some examples of suitable flavor-enhancing, plant derived foodstuffs are cocoa, powdered tomato and ground nuts, and a preferred proportion is from 20 to 40% by weight of said remainder of the organic, potassium containing foodstuff ingredient.
The carbohydrate ingredient can be sugar, a non hygrnscopic starch hydrolysate, of a mixture thereof.
The composition can be prepared by the steps of mixing and dissolving the various ingredients in water and spray-drying the resulting dispersion or solution.
When the condition to be treated is one of potassium depletion, sodium will not usually be included in the composition. However, where there is a condition of severe dehydration, and accompanying loss of salts as may occur with excessive diarrhea or vomiting, then sodium replacement may also be desired, and a sodium-containing composition will be used. Since the taste of sodium chloride is much betterthan that of potassium chloride, a very palatable product results.
The present invention displays a synergistic effect in that the milk ingredients and potassiumcontaining flavor-enhancers not only render the potassium salts palatable, enabling them to be taken in dilute form, and thus, safely, but because they themselves are rich in potassium the amount of potassium salt needed can be reduced. It has been found that cocoa not only provides considerable potassium, but it is one of the best masking agents for the large amounts of the pure chemical potassium sources in the first group which are used in such a preparation. Because "dutched" cocoa is higher in potassium salts, this is the preferred form of cocoa which is used in such a product.
Since milk powder, besides supplying potassium, also supplies sodium ions, which under some circumstances might be undesirable, it may sometimes be desirable to use milk products such as milk solids, caseinates, and whey products which have been previously dialyzed (to reduce the sodium).
The composition may include sugar for sweetening, or the sugar may be reduced or excluded and supplemented with an artificial or other sweetener, such as saccharin, cyclamate, aspartame, xylitoi and levulose.
The composition may be combined with flavor and-character-modifying ingredients such as starch hydrolysates, exemplified by starch hydrolysates having a low affinity for moisture such as those having DE values of about 10-15.
When the composition is spray-dried and agglomerated, the total mixture is usually dissolved in water before spray-drying. Alternatively, the milk portion with or without the cocoa may be spray-dried and agglomerated and the final potassium supplement made by simple mixing. Spray drying has the advantage of producing a more uniform product.
It has been discovered that a uniform product can also be produced by combining the ingredients and mixing them vigorously with the addition of lecithin.
The lecithin may be added hot, if desired, and it may be diluted with a fat such as cocoa butter prior to adding itto the mixture in the mixer. The mixing is continued until the entire mixture is uniform. It is preferred to use as little lecithin as necessary, eg. a range from a to 1.5% of the total mixture, occasionally more. The objective of the lecithin is to produce a product which readily disperses in water, and at the same time produces a more uniform product because it tends to tie all the ingredients together.
The following Example is given to illustrate the invention and the manner in which it may be carried into effect: Example 1
This Example illustrates the preparation of an essentially potassium containing supplement composition:
Salts
Potassium Chloride 2.27 pounds
Potassium Citrate 3.60 pounds
Potassium Bicarbonate 3.33 pounds
Dipotassium Phosphate 3.30 pounds
Foodstuff
Dutched Cocoa 26.7 pounds
Agglomerated Non-fat Milk Powder 32.0 pounds Excipients and Flavors Sugar 9.0 pounds
Maltodextrin DElO 18.0 pounds
Potassium Saccharin 0.36 pounds
Vanille flavors 1.44 pounds
The above ingredients were mixed together to produce a composition weighing 100 pounds.
Lecithin has not been shown in the above formula because its use depends upon the process. If the product is made by vigorous mixing, approximately A pound of lecithin might be used. The flavor of the above product may also be improved somewhat by the use of approximately one pound of silica gel (Cabosil) in the formula to improve pourability and prevention of lumps.
The above formula can be modified to produce a composition containing sodium as well as potassium. The excipients and flavors remain the same, and the foodstuff ingredient as shown in the second group remain the same. As stated previously, instead of potassium chloride, sodium chloride can be used. Also, instead of potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate would be preferred.
While the ratios of sodium to potassium have not been established precisely, the product shown above would be quite satisfactory. It should be stressed that the formulations described in this application are for oral use only. Acute conditions often require more chloride ions, and itis not an object of this invention to prepare a product for acute conditions. In the chronic conditions resulting from diarrhea and vomiting over some period of time, there is also the need for carbohydrate. The excipients shown in the above formula in this latterfunction now become active ingredients and serve a double purpose of making a product palatable but also supplying very much needed carbohydrate. If desired, these may be increased, and for treating infants, slight modification of the formulations would be indicated, possibly elimination of the cocoa if the feeding is by bottle.
The value of these potassium supplement compositions as described above may be increased for specific clinical applications by including other ions such as magnesium, magenese, and zinc, without adversely affecting the taste. Since these and other inorganic ions are present in cocoa and milk powders, they also benefit from this invention.
