Description

The invention relates to biotechnology, the medical and food industries in the field of food additives with biologically active properties.

An analysis of the nutritional structure of Russia's population currently reveals a number of negative trends. According to the generalized data of epidemiological studies carried out by GNITsPM of the Ministry of Health of Russia, they are characterized by a decrease in the intake of complete proteins, vitamins and minerals; unbalanced diet due to excess consumption of animal fats and simple carbohydrates and a lack of consumption of essential components.

At present, the creation of biologically active food supplements (BAA) is urgent, which makes it possible to fill the nutritional deficiency of the necessary biologically active substances and rationalize nutrition through the use of plant and animal products obtained by environmentally friendly technology.

Known dietary supplement containing pumpkin seeds, red pepper, asafoetida root, tansy flowers and other combinations of plant ingredients [1]. This product does not have the optimal protein, fat and vitamin composition, the use of biologically active substances only from plant components reduces the range of positive effects of the additive on the human body.

The technical solution is to increase the biological activity of the additive, expanding the range of additives.

This is achieved by the fact that the proposed biologically active food supplement “Kumelact” based on pumpkin seeds is prepared by extraction of pumpkin seeds germinated on milk serum with honey in a ratio of 1: 2 for 42 days in a dark place, then the honey extract is mixed with lactulose, in which dissolve malic acid, based on 100 kg of biologically active additives 49.75 kg of honey extract, 50 kg of lactulose concentrate, 0.25 kg of malic acid.

The technology of preparation consists in obtaining a honey extract of germinated pumpkin seeds, mixing the extract with lactulose concentrate, in which malic acid is previously dissolved.

High-quality pumpkin seeds are manually sorted, washed in a pink solution of potassium permanganate, then several times in running water, placed in one layer between two layers of linen or cotton cloth, soaked in warm spring water or water passed through a filter, and left at +22 ... + 24 ° С. The upper tissue is moistened with milk serum 2 times a day (morning and evening) until seedlings appear (piercing) (no more than 3 days). The length of the seedlings should be 1-2 mm. Germinated seeds are sorted and washed.

For the preparation of the extract, germinated pumpkin seeds and natural honey of light varieties are used in a ratio of 1: 2. The extraction process is 42 days in a dark place. After exposure, the honey extract is separated by filtration at 60 ° C (to lower the viscosity of the product). Then, the required amount of malic acid according to the recipe is dissolved in lactulose concentrate with slight heating (up to 60 ° C) and stirring. You can use any concentrate of food lactulose with a lactulose content of at least 34.6%. Next, honey extract and lactulose concentrate are mixed with malic acid dissolved in it in accordance with the recipe (table 1) until a homogeneous mass.

The finished product is an amber-colored syrup with a pleasant sweet and sour taste. The components that make up the dietary supplement complement each other in terms of organoleptic and physico-chemical characteristics. Honey contains a large number of aromatic substances that improve the palatability of other products when honey is added to them (in this case, lactulose concentrate). In this case, the viscosity of the honey extract decreases when diluted with lactulose concentrate, which facilitates the dosing of the finished product (syrup) according to the recommendations for use. When creating dietary supplements, it was found that the combination of honey with malic acid not only lowers the pH to the required range, but also gives the product intended for consumption a pleasant sweet and sour taste, which can also be enhanced by other components of the complete nutrient mixture.

Natural bee honey is a high-calorie product. The demand for honey in the compositions for dietary supplements is explained by the fact that honey contains almost all trace elements, vitamins B ₁ , B ₂ , B ₆ , E, K, C, provitamin A - carotene, folic acid and other physiologically functional ingredients in easily accessible and digestible forms (honey digestibility reaches 98%). Honey has a bactericidal, immunobiological, stimulating effect, promotes the release of toxins from the body. Honey is useful for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, nervous and cardiovascular systems, lungs, and upper respiratory tract, increases the hemoglobin content, and the body's resistance. With its help, it is possible to significantly improve the functional state of the central nervous system, tissue nutrition, to ensure full permeability of blood vessels, to stimulate blood circulation.

The use in the proposed dietary supplement of pumpkin seeds in the awakened (germinated) state involves the enrichment of the extractant (honey) with an additional amount of essential substances.

When seeds are germinated, enzyme systems are actively formed, which, in turn, catalyze the production of vitamins and the mass of other biologically active substances, the content of which in seeds and its seedlings increases many times: the content of vitamins E, beta-carotene, group B, C increases sharply , folic acid, essential amino acids, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, copper, cobalt, a mass of bioflavonoids and polyphenols appears. The use of good quality seeds in our work, their preliminary manual cleaning, disinfection, the use of clean water and, mainly, whey, which contains all the necessary trace elements and nutrients for seed germination, are the main methods that allow you to get high-quality biomass of food seedlings studied culture. Germinated pumpkin kernels have an anthelmintic effect. They stimulate the function of the sex glands, increase potency, and are used to prevent prostatitis. The zinc contained in them is necessary for the normal functioning of the brain, helps to strengthen memory and reduce fatigue [2].

In addition to the honey extract of germinated pumpkin seeds, dietary supplements include lactulose concentrate and biologically active organic acid - malic.

Lactulose, as a food substrate of saccharolytic microflora, actively stimulates its growth and vital activity, thus exerting a beneficial effect on the bacterial composition and ecology of the colon. With regular maintenance of lactulose in the diet, a significant improvement in intestinal microbiocenosis has been proved: an increase in the number of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli and a decrease in the number of opportunistic flora [3]. It is advisable to use it for constipation, hepatic encephalopathy, acute intestinal infections, gallstone disease, hypercholesterolemia [4]. In the proposed dietary supplement used food lactulose concentrate food "Lactusan" composition shown in table 2.

table 2 The composition of the concentrate lactulose "Lactusan" The name of indicators Content Mass fraction,%: dry matter 58.6 lactulose 34.6 lactose 12,2 galactose 7.1 other sugars 1.3 total nitrogen 0.05 ash 0.63 calcium 0.21 sodium 0.4 magnesium 0,03 phosphorus 0,03 potassium 0.04

Malic acid is involved in the conversion of sugars and fats to adenosine triphosphate, which is a source of energy. Malic acid accelerates the formation of bile in the liver, promotes the emptying of the gallbladder, has anti-inflammatory properties, normalizes the production of gastric juice, and stimulates the digestive processes. Malic acid has the ability to improve the absorption of iron from food, which is important in the treatment of anemia. The antioxidant properties of malic acid enhance carbohydrate metabolism. In addition, malic acid in combination with honey exhibits extreme preservative properties, which are manifested in the suppression of undesirable microflora introduced into the dietary supplement from the stage of germination of pumpkin seeds.

BAA "Kumelact" is a composition of natural biologically active substances, obtained by combining a honey extract from germinated pumpkin seeds and lactulose with the addition of malic acid, designed to enrich the diet with individual food and biologically active substances and their complexes. All useful substances are in natural, balanced amounts and combinations, their assimilation does not affect human health adversely, which can be observed with the use of certain pharmaceuticals.

Introduction of dietary supplements to the food “Kumelact” in the diet stimulates metabolism and blood formation, improves immunity, compensates for vitamin and mineral deficiency, normalizes acid-base balance, helps cleanse the body of toxins and intensive digestion, increases potency, slows down the aging process. The content in the dietary supplement of natural honey and lactulose determined its functional properties such as replenishment of the energy costs of the body, prevention of cardiovascular diseases and diseases of the central nervous system, normalization and maintenance of intestinal microbiocenosis, metabolic homeostasis.

The technology for obtaining the proposed dietary supplement allows you to maintain in the native state biologically active substances of the components, even such mobile ones as vitamins and enzymes. The content of the main biologically active substances in dietary supplements for food "Kumelact" is shown in table 3.
