Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

This invention relates to areca food additives, especially, to additives for areca quids and foods containing areca component, and their preparation methods. High alkaline lime always exists in conventional areca food additive. Many problems consequently result such as oral cancer and the polluting of the environment by the spitting of a bright red liquid. A series of eatable neutral calcium salts of organic acid and compounds containing at least one of the following functional groups selected from the group consisting of -NH2, =NH, =N, -NH-, -CONH-, -HCO-, -CO-, -COOR-, -S-, and their salts were invented to replace lime. The taste of astringent and harms caused by the polyphenolic compounds of areca quid could be completely improved. The disease of quid chewer would be decreased and the problem of environmental pollution would be improved.

Description

~3~

SPECIFICATION
Areca quid chewing is an almost universal indulgence in many regions of southeastern Asia, and in small and large islands adjacent to the coast, and in the Southwest Pacific area.
The preparation of the areca quid is fairly uniform in this part of the world, with variations existing only in the compositions of areca food additives. Lime is the most important component of areca food additive.
The other constituent may have been selected from the group consisting of gambir, tobacco, coffee, cocoa, Chinese herbs, and modifier such as sweetener, perfume, preserver, stabilizer, color pigment and fillers. The areca food additive is usually in the form of paste.
The preparation of traditional areca quid has been done in several ways.
1. Chewing is practiced by filrst inserting a piece of the areca seed pulp in the mouth. This is masticated for a few seconds, followed by with the betel leaf or betel fruit, with a generous helping of lime, being taken; a large wad then results, in which a long-continued indulgence of the tissues in the oral cavity becorne stained bright red. The mixture induces intense salivation. The areca seed is highly astringent. This unpleasant ef~ect, however, is neutralized by the lime in expectation.
2~,~3~8 2. Another areca quid is that in which a fresh areca is cracked up at one side of it and a small amount of areca food additive is pasted. A chop of betel fruit or betel stem is added onto it.
3. Still areca quid is first to spread a small amount of areca food additive S on a piece of betel leaf. A piece of areca is wrapped inside the leaf with the areca food additive face inside.
4. The still areca quid is prepared by using a piece of areca seed in stead of the areca in method 3.
5. The still areca quid is conducted in the sarne way as methods 1 and 2 1 0 but without betel fruit or betel stem.
Davis reported of the relationship existing between areca quid chewing and the higher incidence.of oral cancer [ J. A. M. A., 64: 711-718, 1915; J. Tropical Med., 27: 274-278, 1924 ]. The active agent is lime of the chew .
1 ~ The so-called "crude drugs", including areca, areca seed, gambir, betel leaf, betel fruit and betel stem contain a large quantity of polyphenolic compounds which are the taste of astringent and cause harm to the tissue of oral mucosa; forming a leather like compound and being associated with oral and esophageal cancer and other diseases [ Bhide et al.,l984;
2 0 Publication No.57; IARC,1984, pp 851857; Brunneman et al, 1985 J. Agric, Food chem. 1985,vol. 33, 1178-1181 ]. The efficiency of lime is very poor even though people use lime to improve the effects of polyphenolic cornpounds. The high alkaline property of lime, in addition to that, also produces many bad results, such as:
2 5 1. The lime in areca food additive makes the pH value of higher than 12.5, which would corrode the oral mucosa of chewer. The part corroded by lime would tan when the release of polyphenolic compounds existed from the crude drug during chewing and could not completely react with lime at the moment of release. Leathering or induce oral cancer would 3 0 consequently occur;
2. The bad odor of lime is uncomfortable;
3. The teeth of the areca quid chewer are damaged by the high alkaline lime, which cannot stand the heat, acidity and rapid change of temperature. The foods belong to these conditions which are not 3 5 enjoyable for areca quid chewer;
4. The spitting of the bright red chewing juice is one of the environmental pollutions in society;
5. Swallowing a great amount of lime reduces the acidity of stomach and increases the chance of cancer occurring.

~83~
Many methods proposed for improving the bad effects of areca food additive currently exist, such as those being disclosed in the patent gazette No. 7010610 and No. 7112377 of Taiwan R.O.C.. Those methods did not use lime and gambir. The problems caused by the polyphenolic 5 compounds still remain, al~hough the problem of the bright red juice could be improYed. A series of eatable neutral calcium salts; and compounds containing at least one of the following functional groups selected from the group consisting of -NH2, =NH, ~N,-NH-,-CONH-, -HCO-, -CO-, -COOR-, -S-, and their salts; especially, protein, derivatives of 10 protein and food containing protein; show excellent properties in comparison with lime. The astringent, tastes and harms caused by the polyphenolic compounds of areca quid could be improved. The disease of quid chewer could be decreased and the problem of environmental pollution could be improved completely.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel composition of arecn food udditive comprising crude drug, compound containing at least one of the functional group selected from the group consisting of -NH2, =NH, ~N, -NH-, -CONH-,-HCO-, -CO-, -COOR-, -S-, and their salts; especially, protein, derivatives of protein and food containing 3 0 protein; and modifier selected from the group of sweetener, perfume, preserver, stabilizer, color pigment, Chinese herbs and fillers;
4. A still more specific object of the present invention is to provide a novel areca quid which uses eatable neutral calcium salts of organic acids. Reacting with the polyphenolic compounds of crude drugs, instead 3 5 of high alkalinc lirne, is the goal;
5. Yet another object of the present invention is to accordingly provide a novel method for preparation of areca quid which uses food contain functional group selected from the group consisting of NH2, =NH, ~N, -NH-, -CONH-, -HCO-, -CO-, -COOR-, -S-, and their salts; especially, protein, 3~

derivatives of protein and food containing protein; this would be in order to react with the polyphenolic compounds of crude drugs instead of high alkaline lime;
6. Still another object of the present invention is to provide novel 5 foods, such as beverages, biscuits, candy, cake, chewing gum, and throat lozengers all of which would contain the areca or the component of areca;
7. A general object of this invention is to provide areca quid which are eatable and will improve the environmental pollution caused by the 10 spitting of a bright red juice.
Other and further objects, features and advantages of the invention will nppear more from the following description.

DETAILED DESCRIPTIOND
15 A series of eatable compounds for preparation areca food additive, which have an excellent effect for reaction with polyphenolic compounds, has been devised by the inventor. This series of eatable compounds is superior to the traditional lime compound and could improve all the present disadvantages in areca food.
2 0 The eatable foods include; salts of calcium organic acid, such as calcium formate, calcium fumarate, calcium glautamete, calcium glycerophosphate, culcium lactate, calcium malate, calcium maleate, calcium succinate, calcium tartrate, calcium citrate and calcium glutamate; food which contains at least one of the following functional 25 groups selected from the group consisting of -NH2, =NH, ..N, -NH-, -CONH-, -HCO-, -CO-, -COOR-, -S-, and their salts; particularly, protein, hydrolyzed products of protein and foods containing protein.
Specific examples which contain the functionnl group selected from the group consisting of -NH2, =NH, I.N,-NH-,-CONH-,-HCO-,-CO-, -COOR-, 3 0 -S- are pure proteins, such as hemialbumin, albumin, histone, gelatin, protamine, albuminoid; complex proteins, such as nucleoproteid, glycoproteid, phosphoproteid and liporoteid; derivative proteins, such as m-protein and peptone; hydrolyzed protein, such as gelatine, polypeptide and amino acid; and their mixture compounds.
3 5 The special examples which contain -CONH- group are fibroin, keratin, and low molecule weight of nylon. The special examples which contain -HCO-, -CO- are reducing compounds, such as rhamnose, galactose and lactose. The special examples contain -COOR- are synthetic polyethers, such as methly cellulose, Tweens, and poly-N-vinyl-pyrolidine.

Most of the compounds previously mentioned could be produced from foods, including foods of vegetable and animal. These the foods, especially those containing protein or amino acids, show good properties for reaction of polyphenolic compounds. The properties are based on the quantity of protein and/or amino acid of which they are borne. These discoverings are very useful to this invention. The vegetables including various kind of grain foods, seeds, and their products, such as soy bean, green bean, nzuki bean, peanut, germs, soy bean crude, sesame seed, hemp seed, natto, kidney bean, radish, walnut; and animal foods, such as milk, sea foods, egg, tissues of animals, yeast, meat all belong to food.
The compounds for the areca food additive would be better in a state of fine particle in order for an effect of reaction.
The modifier to be used in areca food additive is selected from the group consisting of sweeteners, perfumes, preservers, stabili~ers, color pigments, herbs and fillers. They are compounds of sweeteners such as honey, maltose, sugar, fructose, glycyrrhizin, saccrin, d-sorbital and d-mannitol; perfumes, such as mint and essential oils; preservatives, such as benzoate, sodium benzoate, calcium propinate, sorbitar, dehydroacetic acid and its salts, sorbic acid; stabilizers, such as CMC, pectin, arabic gum, 2 0 and locust bean gum; color pigment, such as chlorophyll and green No. I;
Chinese herbs, such as licorice root, cinnamon, coffee and cocoa. They are used in a favorable amount and according to the food regulations.
The compounds and their amounts for the requirement of reaction with polyphenolic compounds of areca quid are not strictly confined to 2 5 one kind of compounds and a specific amount. They, however, depend on the quantity of total polyphenolic compounds contained. The equivalent of chemical reaction is usually greater than the equivalent of polyphenolic compounds. The composition of crude drug depends on the season of their harvests and the degree of reap. Their content of 3 0 polyphenolic compounds then varies over a wide range.
7 ~33% of d-catechin and 22~50% of gambir tanning contained in gambir exist. The seed of area bears approximately 40% of the polyphenolic compounds in green and is reduced to appro?cimately 20%
after ripening. The fruit of areca has only 2~8%. The stem, fruit and leaf 3 5 of areca betel, respectively, bears 2~5%, 1~3%, and 1~2% in weight of polyphenolic compounds.
The preparation method of areca food is not limited to using fresh crude drugs. That methvd also uses the crude drugs which can be grounded into powder or into a state of paste; can be extracted for s ~3g3~
components by water or organic solvents, such as hexane, alcohol and ether, to remove the fibre; and can be separated the effective components from the extracts.
The areca food additive may be in the form of paste, powder in package, 5 solid produced from drying the paste, and in liquid.
The areca food additive compounds with foods and other crude drugs, stabilizers, pigments, preservative agents, perfumes and sweeteners in the proper quantity in order to form a state of chewing gum, cake, biscuits, lozengers, beverages or candy. That is good for packing and 1 0 storage.
