Description

  The present invention relates to a nutritional functional food that can be supplemented with nutrients that are necessary for a person to survive and grow healthy, but that are difficult to take in sufficient amounts.

The present invention was made in order to solve such conventional problems, the purpose of which is as close to the normal food form as possible, without reducing human functions related to eating and drinking, Another object of the present invention is to provide a nutritive functional food that can effectively replenish nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and plant fibers without causing any side effects even when ingested constantly.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the nutritional functional food of the present invention is prepared by cooking a vegetable, fruit, green fish, small fish, etc., softened, cut into a predetermined size, and formed into a predetermined size. The container body is filled with a plurality of types, sealed with a lid, and then frozen.

Here, in order to fill a container main body with a plurality of types of food materials, it is preferable to arrange a partition.

The lid may be flat or thin. Furthermore, the container body or the lid is preferably transparent.

It is a perspective view which shows the aggregate | assembly of the food material of the nutrition functional food of this invention. It is a perspective view of the container filled with the food material of nutrition functional food. It is a perspective view of the partition which partitions off foodstuff material. It is a perspective view of the nutritional functional food of the present invention.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the nutritionally functional food of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an aggregate of food materials of the nutritionally functional food of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a container filled with the food materials of the nutritionally functional food, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the nutritional functional food of the present invention.

The food used as the material of the food material 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F of the nutritional functional food of the present invention is vegetables, fruits, seaweed, blue fish, small fish, and the like.
Pumpkins, spinach, Japanese mustard spinach, broccoli, carrots, asparagus, etc. are used as vegetables, and apples, bananas, etc. are used as fruits.

The food materials 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, and 1F formed in the above are prepared.
Here, the size of the cutting is preferably 1 to 10 mm in length and 0.2 to 1 mm in thickness. The sizes of the food materials 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, and 1F are as follows. It is preferably a 1-5 cm cube or a rectangular parallelepiped.

Next, after arranging the partition body 4 in the container body 2, the food material 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F is filled with a plurality of types, the container body 2 is covered with the lid 3 and the interior is covered. Try to seal completely. After that, the food material 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F is frozen by inserting into the refrigerator for a predetermined time.
Here, the container body 2 and the lid body 3 are preferably molded from plastic or cardboard. In particular, the container body 2 or the lid body 3 is preferably transparent.

The nutritive functional food of the present invention is eaten after the containers 2 and 3 filled with the food materials 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, and 1F are inserted into a microwave oven or the like as they are and thawed.
