Description

The invention relates to the food industry and can be used in the food and processing industry for the production of a specialized nutritional mixture enriched with dietary fiber, ascorbic acid and minerals effective in the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity.

A specialized nutritional mixture is known that improves digestion and contains fennel seed powder (10-10.5 wt.%); caraway seed powder (10-10.5 wt.%); dandelion root powder (2-2.5 wt.%); immortelle flower powder (1-1.5 wt.%); calamus rhizome powder (1-1.5 wt.%); buckwheat flour - the rest (patent RU No. 2819673).

The disadvantages of the well-known functional food additive are:

- the recommended consumption rates of the nutritional mixture intended to improve digestion are not indicated;

- lack of factual data confirming the targeted action of the supplement, leading to improved digestion, increased appetite, increased secretion of gastric juice and choleretic properties.

The closest is a composition for treating obesity and associated metabolic syndrome, comprising green tea extract, Coleus forskholii extract, Yerba Mate extract, Betula alba extract. The combination of plant extracts is characterized in that it consists of green tea extract containing more than 70% catechins, preferably containing epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), Coleus forskholii extract containing at least 10% forskolin diterpene, Yerba Mate extract containing 2-4% caffeine and caffeoylquinic acids (CGA) and Betula alba extract containing no more than 3% flavonoids (patent RU No. 2334523).

The disadvantages of the known composition are:

- the use of expensive components included in the composition, increasing its cost.

The technical task is to overcome the above-mentioned drawback by creating a composition of a specialized nutritional mixture from widely distributed fruit, berry, vegetable, medicinal plant raw materials and processed grain legume raw materials, aimed at preventing metabolic syndrome and obesity.

The technical result is the achievement of the claimed nutritional mixture for a specialized purpose by introducing into the composition of raw materials of plant origin a certain chemical composition and direction with high biological activity aimed at preventing metabolic syndrome and obesity.

The stated task and the specified technical result are achieved due to the fact that the specialized nutritional mixture for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity includes powder from red currant pomace, powder from blood-red hawthorn fruit, powder from soybean okara, powder from pumpkin pomace, with the following ratio of components, wt.%:

Red currant pomace powder 40 Powder from the fruits of hawthorn blood-red 29-31 Soybean okara powder 20 Pumpkin pomace powder 9-11

The specialized nutritional mixture for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity is obtained by vacuum drying of the corresponding plant material with a residual pressure of 0.8-0.9 atm. at a temperature of 50 to 80°C to a final humidity of 6-12%, followed by grinding to a free-flowing powder state and sifting through a sieve made of polyamide sieve fabric 22.7PCh-150 with a cell size of 300 μm. Thus, the powder from red currant pomace, the powder from blood-red hawthorn fruits, the powder from soybean okara, the powder from common pumpkin pomace represent a finely dispersed powder with the color, taste and smell characteristic of these types of plant material.

According to the obtained results of studies of the chemical composition of the specified ingredients (Table 1), as well as pharmacological studies of medicinal plants (Turova A.D. Medicinal Plants of the USSR and Their Applications / A.D. Turova, E.M. Sapozhnikova. - 3rd ed., revised and enlarged. - M .: Medicine 1983. - 228 p.) and the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (TR CU 021/2011 "On Food Safety" (as amended on July 14, 2021) N 880) in relation to medicinal plants prohibited for use in biologically active food supplements, the specified ingredients have the following properties.

Table 1

Components Chemical composition Dietary fiber, % Fat, % Ascorbic acid, mg/100 g Ash, % Potassium, mg/100 g Red currant pomace powder 65.4±6.5 1.2±0.1 40.5±4.0 2.9±0.3 358.3±35.8 Powder from the fruits of hawthorn blood-red 40.7±4.1 1.2±0.1 17.6±1.8 3.4±0.3 508.2±50.8 Soybean okara powder 40.9±4.1 7.9±0.8 15.9±1.6 4.1±0.4 1491.0±149.0 Pumpkin pomace powder 28.3±2.8 2.3±0.2 19.0±1.9 3.6±0.4 936.0±93.6

The most important component in the composition of the declared nutritional mixture was dietary fiber in the following average quantities: red currant pomace powder - 65.4%; hawthorn fruit powder - 40.7%; soybean okara powder - 40.9%; pumpkin pomace powder - 28.3%.

The second most important component was ascorbic acid. Raw materials enriched with ascorbic acid are able to reduce appetite and hunger, help maintain a high energy level, as a result of which stimulation of physical activity occurs more intensively. The highest concentration of ascorbic acid is characteristic of red currant pomace (40.5 mg/100 g). In other plant components, the average content of ascorbic acid was at the level of 17.5 mg/100 g.

The concentration of potassium and ash (respectively, the totality of the entire mineral profile) are also significant components for replenishing the deficiency of nutrients in case of dietary restrictions. Potassium is the main dietary mineral necessary for maintaining the functioning of the nervous and cardiovascular systems. Potassium in the components of the nutrient mixture is contained in the following average quantities: red currant pomace powder - 358.3 mg / 100 g; bloody-red hawthorn fruit powder - 508.2 mg / 100 g; soybean okara powder - 1491 mg / 100 g; common pumpkin pomace powder - 936 mg / 100 g.

The reduced fat content in the presented components is the most valuable factor in the prevention of obesity and metabolic syndrome, which reduces the load on the liver, pancreas, the level of LDL (low-density lipoproteins) in the blood, and also reduces the overall energy value of the diet. Fat in the components of the nutritional mixture is contained in the following average quantities: red currant pomace powder - 1.2%; blood-red hawthorn powder - 1.2%; soybean okara powder - 7.9%; pumpkin pomace powder - 2.3%.

Red currant pomace powder blocks the absorption of unsaturated fats by the body, which has a positive effect in the fight against LDL (low-density lipoproteins), regulates blood cholesterol levels, improving digestion and metabolism due to the content of nutrients such as calcium, B vitamins and pectin substances.

Hawthorn fruit powder contains flavonoids, triterpene acids and sesquiterpenes, which help suppress platelet aggregation, the occurrence of dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis, thereby positively influencing the body in the prevention of obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Soybean okara powder, as a valuable secondary raw material, is rich in dietary fiber, which has a prebiotic effect on the body, performing the function of regulating gastrointestinal processes and metabolism.

Pumpkin pomace powder, due to its high concentration of carotene, allows you to regulate energy production and fat metabolism by transporting fatty acids into muscle mitochondria, thereby improving overall metabolism.

Examples of specific implementation.

Example 1. The following pre-sifted powder from red currant pomace - 4.0 kg, powder from blood-red hawthorn fruits - 3.0 kg, powder from soybean okara - 2.0 kg; powder from pumpkin pomace - 1.0 kg were mixed in a mixer. The resulting product is a specialized nutritional mixture for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity.

Example 2. The following pre-sifted powder from red currant pomace - 4.0 kg, powder from blood-red hawthorn fruits - 2.9 kg, powder from soybean okara - 2.0 kg; powder from pumpkin pomace - 1.1 kg were mixed in a mixer. The resulting product is a specialized nutritional mixture for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity.

Example 3. The following pre-sifted powder from red currant pomace - 4.0 kg, powder from blood-red hawthorn fruits - 3.1 kg, powder from soybean okara - 2.0 kg; powder from pumpkin pomace - 0.9 kg were mixed in a mixer. The resulting product is a specialized nutritional mixture for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and obesity.

The resulting nutrient mixture has a taste and smell typical of raw materials from red currant berries, with a pleasant spicy aroma of hawthorn and pumpkin, a sour taste with a slightly bitter aftertaste, the color is red-brown with an orange tint, the mass fraction of moisture is no more than 12%.
