Definitions
- the present invention relates to therapeutical and nutritional compositions having antioxidizing activity and capable of controlling overweight, containing a mixture of two components.
- compositions 5 consisting of:
- compositions are an effective, well-tolerated nutritional 10 supplement for increasing with surprising synergism the antioxidants defenses of the body, and for keeping under control overweight as well as any unbalances in the body fat mass (in excess) to lean mass ratio deriving from high caloric input of foods. All these beneficial results are always by far higher than the sum of the results obtainable by the separated 15 administration of the same active nutrients.
- the present invention therefore relates to pharmaceutical and/or dietetic compositions as well as to functional foodstuffs capable of preventing both excessive increase in the peroxidative processes and overweight, as it happens in aging and in many related pathologies (such as
- compositions of the invention comprise two active principles represented by: A) pyruvic acid or salts thereof with:
- I) minerals such as Ca, Mg, K, Na, Zn, Cr, Va, and the like; II) basic and/or neutral amino acids capable of inducing an anorectic effect, such as arginine, histidine, asparagine, trypthophan, phenylalanine, tyrosine, leucine, and the like;
- nitrogen bases such as choline and derivatives, ethanolamine and derivatives, mono and diinethylethanolamine and derivatives, poly amines, and the like; and B) glutamine (and/or proteins and/or peptides containing it as such or salified with lactic acid, pyruvic acid or other organic acids such as: fumaric, malic, oxalacetic, aspartic, citric, isocitric, acetic, propionic, butyric acids and the like.
- compositions of the present invention can futher contain other compounds conventionally used, such as:
- fibers and polysaccharides such as inulins, pectins, celluloses, chitosans, maltodextrins, starches and flours, and the like;
- lymphokinetic and detoxifying activity such as melilot (Melilotus officinalis), dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), citrus essential oils, and the like
- vegetable extracts capable of activating fat lipolysis such as coffee, tea, green tea, oolong tea, wax extracts of citrus, rice, sugar cane, and the like
- - vegetable extracts capable of improving blood rheology, microcircle flow rate and NO release such as Ginkgo biloba, Ginseng, and the like.
- Pyruvic acid is present in amounts ranging from 0.1 to 2000 mg, preferably from 4 to 400 mg, per kg body weight of the treated subject.
- Glutamine (and/or proteins and/or peptides containing it) is present in amounts ranging from 0.1 to 500 mg, preferably from 10 to 100 mg, per kg body weight of the treated subject.
- compositions of the invention are reported in the following.
- Example 1 a) calcium pyruvate 180 g b) glutamine 70 g
- Example 2 a) calcium pyruvate 250 g b) wheat flour oligopeptides containing 29% glutamine 50 g
- Example 3 a) pyruvic acid 50 g b) wheat flour oligopeptides containing 29% glutamine 200 g
- Example 4 a) calcium pyruvate 90 g b) glutamine 133 g c) inulin 777 g
- Example 5 a) pyruvic acid 90 g b) wheat flour oligopeptides containing
- Example 6 a) pyruvic acid or salts thereof 90 g b) wheat flour oligopeptides containing
- Example 7 water-dispersible powder consisting of: a) pyruvic acid 150 g b) L-glutamine and/or peptides containing it
- L-trypthophan (30 g), L-phenylalanine (150 g) and L-arginine (150 g) d) a vegetable extracts mixture consisting of: green tea (300 g), artichoke (50 g), melilot (15 g), caffeine extracted from tea and or coffee (30 g), Ginkgo biloba (20 g), polycosanols extracted from sugar cane (3 g), lemon essential oils (5 g) and black pepper extracts containing 1-piperoylpiperidine (1 g) e) a mixture of vitamins and mineral salts consisting of: vitamin E (10 g), lipoic acid (8.5 g), vitamin F,
- compositions described in the above examples can be used for the preparation of both functional foodstuffs (bread, pasta, crackers, biscuits or other bakery products; dressings, margarines, mayonnaise, sauces, beverages, fruit juices, soft drinks and the like; creams, chocolate, milk, cheese, yogurt, etc.) and galenic preparations consisting of vials, hard- or soft- gelatin capsules, tablets, sachets, effervescent tablets, chewing gums, syrups, etc.
- compositions of the present invention were assessed by means of two series of tests on rat and humans, respectively.
- mice 50 Male rats, each weighing 150-200 g, were used. The animals were subdivided into 5 groups of 10 animals each:
- control C
- 10 animals control at time 0
- received no treatment 10 animals received for 20 days standard hypercaloric, hypertriglyceridemizing and hypercholesterolemizing diet consisting of:
- 3 rd group animals treated with pyruvic acid; animals received for 20 days the same diet as the controls except that 4.5 g of pyruvic acid replaced in part a similar amount of saccharose (saccharose used: 53.94%).
- composition of the invention is capable of promoting, in rats subjected for 20 days to hypercaloric diet enriched in animal saturated fats and cholesterol, a surprising, synergistic effect in: 1) improving antioxidants defenses of plasma, liver, brain and heart;
- the tested composition contained pyruvate (3.75 g/die) and glutamine (5 g/die) added with amino acids, vitamins, minerals and vegetable extracts in the same quali-quantitative composition as that reported in example 7.
- the dietetic supplement administered for 30 days, gave surprising beneficial effects in: a) significantly reducing overweight; b) significantly improving the lean mass/fat mass ratio; c) significantly improving membrane fluidity of erythrocytes and lymphocytes; d) improving the antioxidant defenses of plasma lipoproteins.
- Said therapeutical improvements obtainable by the administration of the composition as reported in example 7 were always significantly higher than those obtained when administering separately the different components of the above mentioned compositions, i.e.: a) pyruvate; b) glutamine; c) the fraction containing all of the other components of the mixture without pyruvate and glutamine.
