Description

Nutritional composition
Technical Field
The present invention relates to nutritional compositions. More particularly, the present invention relates to a nutritional composition having high specific energy (エネルギー from ) and low viscosity, and a method for producing the same.
Background
Various nutritional compositions (liquid foods) as pharmaceuticals and nutritional foods have been disclosed (for example, patent documents 1 to 5). in most of conventional nutritional compositions, since the specific energy is adjusted to 1 to 2kcal/m L, it is necessary to ingest a large amount of liquid foods themselves in order to ingest a large amount of energy, and ingestion of a large amount of liquid foods causes problems such as an increase in gastric burden and an increase in the time taken for ingestion of the liquid foods.
On the other hand, if the specific energy of the nutritional composition is adjusted to, for example, 1.5kcal/m L or more, the fluidity and thermal stability (heat resistance) of the nutritional composition are deteriorated, and it is not preferable from the practical viewpoint of the suitability for use and the suitability for production, in the case of using sodium caseinate as a Protein source, although the thermal stability of the Protein is high, the viscosity of the nutritional composition is increased and the fluidity is deteriorated (patent document 6), and in the case of using whole Milk Protein (Total Milk Protein) as a Protein source, it is reported that aggregation or precipitation is generated by heat sterilization treatment (patent documents 6 and 7).
In addition, in the case of using a Milk Protein Concentrate (Milk Protein Concentrate: hereinafter also referred to as "MPC" almost synonymously with "whole Milk Protein") and a casein hydrolysate in combination as a Protein source, there are reported: if the amount of MPC used is not less than about 60 wt% of whole protein, aggregation or precipitation may occur (patent document 7).

The nutritional composition of the present invention is a nutritional composition containing proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water, and is characterized by containing a milk protein concentrate having a reduced calcium content as the protein, the milk protein concentrate having an energy per unit of 2.0kcal/m L or more and a viscosity of 400 mPas or less.
The nutritional composition of the present invention has low viscosity and is stable despite a high concentration of 2.0kcal/m L or more per unit energy, and therefore, since the nutritional composition has high and low viscosity per unit energy, it is sufficient to ingest the nutritional composition in a small volume to secure necessary energy, whereby it is possible to reduce the gastric load of a patient and shorten the time for ingesting the same.
The nutritional composition of the present invention comprises a milk protein concentrate with a reduced calcium content as protein (hereinafter also referred to as "Ca-reduced MPC"). "milk protein concentrate with reduced calcium content (Ca reduced MPC)" means that the calcium content of the Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC) is reduced. Also, Ca-reduced MPCs can be obtained from, for example, Fonterra Japan ltd.
The Ca-reduced MPC used in the present invention can be prepared, for example, by the method described in International publication No. 2001/041578 (Japanese patent application laid-open No. 2003-515352). Specifically, for example, the calcium content is reduced by removing calcium from an "untreated milk protein concentrate (untreated MPC)" obtained by concentrating skim milk using an Ultrafiltration (UF) membrane, a Microfiltration (MF) membrane, or the like, and then drying the concentrated skim milk. The removal of calcium can be carried out, for example, by the following method: (1) cation exchange on an ion exchanger in the sodium form and/or the potassium form, (2) dialysis and/or ultrafiltration under acidic conditions, (3) treatment with a chelating agent, and the like. The details of the methods (1) to (3) are disclosed in International publication No. 2001/041578 (Japanese patent application laid-open No. 2003-515352).
In the Ca-reduced MPC used in the present invention, the content of calcium (Ca) is reduced compared to the untreated MPC used for the preparation of the Ca-reduced MPC. The calcium content in the Ca-reduced MPC is preferably 5 to 75% by weight, more preferably 15 to 45% by weight, and still more preferably 25 to 35% by weight, based on the calcium content of the untreated MPC used for preparing the Ca-reduced MPC.
In addition, in the Ca-reduced MPC, the total content of sodium (Na) and potassium (K) as ion exchangers was increased as compared to the untreated MPC. The total content of sodium and potassium in the MPC is reduced by Ca, and is preferably increased by 0.5 to 1.5 wt%, more preferably 0.6 to 1.3 wt%, and even more preferably 0.7 to 1 wt%, relative to the total content of sodium and potassium in the unprocessed MPC.

[ method for producing nutritional composition ]
The method for producing the nutritional composition of the present invention comprises mixing the raw materials of the nutritional composition at 20MPa (204 kg/cm)2) The homogenization step is carried out under the above pressure. More specifically, the nutritional composition of the present invention can be produced by mixing predetermined amounts of raw material components to obtain a raw material mixture, pre-emulsifying the raw material mixture to obtain a pre-emulsion, and homogenizing the pre-emulsion under a pressure of 20MPa or more.
Regarding the raw material ingredients, as explained above for the nutritional composition of the invention.
The mixing and pre-emulsification may be suitably treated by means known in the art, for example, by "TKHomo Mixer" (Primix Co., Ltd.), a multi-purpose tank ("Turbo Mixer" (Scanima Co., Ltd), "Dinex" (RomacoFrymaKoruma Co., Ltd), "Flex Mix" (APV Co., Ltd.), or the like.
Homogenization can be suitably carried out by means known in the art, and for example, homogenization can be suitably carried out by a homogenizer (Nano Valve (Nirosoavi Co., Ltd.), Micro Gap (APV Co., Ltd.), or the like). The pressure at the time of homogenization is 20MPa or more and 55MPa or less, preferably 20MPa or more and 50MPa or less, more preferably 20MPa or more and 40MPa or less, and still more preferably 20MPa or more and 35MPa or less.
Homogenization may be performed in one stage, or may be performed in multiple stages. The pressure in the treatment by the homogenization in one stage may be 20MPa or more, and the pressure in the treatment by the homogenization in a plurality of stages may be 20MPa or more in total.
Alternatively, homogenization may be performed after pre-emulsification. In the case of heat sterilization as an optional step, homogenization may be performed after pre-emulsification and before heat sterilization, or pre-emulsification and heat sterilization may be performed thereafter.
In the example described in JP-A-08-196236, a homogenizer of high pressure type is used to convert the first stage to 9.8MPa (100 kg/cm)2) 29MPa (296 kg/cm) in the second stage2) The homogenization of the pressure in the 2 stages of (1) cycle (OneSet) was performed, and the treatment was performed for 4 cycles, thereby obtaining a nutritional composition having fluidity. On the other hand, in the present invention, the low-viscosity nutritional composition intended for the present invention is obtained by performing 1-cycle treatment under homogenization at a pressure of 20MPa or more using a conventional homogenizer, and from this point of view, it is practical as a production facility or a production process, and is very effective as a production method of a nutritional composition.
In addition, the nutritional composition of the present invention may be subjected to heat sterilization treatment as necessary. The heat sterilization can be appropriately performed by means known in the art, and for example, can be appropriately performed by an indirect heating sterilizer (a plate sterilizer, a tube sterilizer, etc.), a direct heating sterilizer (a steam jet sterilizer, a steam injection sterilizer, etc.), an electric heating sterilizer, a tank with a stirring function, an autoclave, and the like. The heat sterilization may be performed, for example, between pre-emulsification and homogenization, or may be performed after homogenization.
The method or condition for heat sterilization is not particularly limited, and may be any heating condition corresponding to the conditions when an indirect heating type sterilizer, a direct heating type sterilizer, or an electric heating type sterilizer is used, for example, 110 to 150 ℃ for × 1 to 30 seconds, the conditions when an autoclave is used in the case of a tank with a stirring function, for example, 110 to 140 ℃ for × 1 to 30 minutes, or 90 to 99 ℃ for × 15 to 60 minutes, or the conditions when an autoclave is used, for example, 110 to 120 ℃ for × 10 to 30 minutes.
[ high calorie nutritional agent ]
The high calorie nutritional supplement of the present invention is composed of the nutritional composition of the present invention described above and a container for containing the nutritional composition, and the nutritional composition is heat sterilized. The high calorie nutritional agents of the present invention are easy to store and transport and can be used immediately without special handling.
The high calorie nutritional supplement of the present invention can be produced by a method of heat-sterilizing a nutritional composition in advance and aseptically filling the container (for example, a method of combining a High Temperature Short Time (HTST) sterilization method, an Ultra High Temperature (UHT) sterilization method, and an aseptic packaging method), or a method of heat-sterilizing the container together with the nutritional composition after filling the container (for example, an autoclave sterilization method). In the HTST sterilization method and the UHT sterilization method, since the sterilization target is a liquid substance, the sterilization target can be appropriately treated by an indirect heating sterilizer (a plate sterilizer, a tube sterilizer, or the like), a direct heating sterilizer (a steam jet sterilizer, a steam injection sterilizer, or the like), or an electric heating sterilizer.
Any container known in the art can be used as the container, and for example, a Gable package, a brick package, a PET bottle, a glass bottle, a steel can, an aluminum can, a flexible package (retort pouch), or the like can be used. In the case of heat-sterilizing the nutritional composition together with the container, a container made of a material that can be heat-sterilized may be used.
The method or condition for heat sterilization is not particularly limited, and methods or conditions equivalent to those of the nutritional composition of the present invention can be applied.

The compositions of MPC (protein content: 80 wt%, product of Fonterra Japan K.K.) and MPC with reduced Ca used for the preparation of MPC with reduced Ca and MPC are shown in Table 1. In the tables, "%" in units of protein to solid components means the weight ratio of each component to MPC or Ca at which the total weight of MPC is reduced, and "mg/100 g" in units of Ca to Fe means the content of each component in MPC is reduced relative to 100g of MPC or Ca.
[ Table 1]

The mixture of minerals and vitamins comprises: 100 μ g RE (retinol equivalent) vitamin A, 40 μ g vitamin D, 230 μ g vitamin E, 17mg vitamin B1, 17mg vitamin B2, 140mg niacinamide, 25mg vitamin B6, 50mg folic acid, 28mg vitamin B12, 50mg calcium pantothenate, 2g vitamin C, 6.7g potassium chloride, 1.4g potassium hydroxide, 1.86g magnesium carbonate, 0.26g ferrous sulfate.
The pre-emulsion was subjected to a high-pressure homogenizer (manufactured by GEA Process Engineering Co., Ltd.) and the pressure in the first stage was set to 50kg/cm2(4.9MPa) and the pressure in the second stage was set to 350kg/cm2(34.3MPa), and homogenization was carried out in two stages to obtain an emulsion-type nutritional composition.
Regarding the mixing amount of each component of the nutritional composition, the protein (Ca-reduced MPC) was 9.4 wt%, the lipid (rapeseed oil) was 6.8 wt%, and the carbohydrate (powdered dextrin) was 26.6 wt%, based on the total weight of the nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition has a specific energy of 2.4kcal/m L, a viscosity of 228mPa · s (20 ℃), a protein concentration of 90mg/m L (the content of milk protein concentrate is 100 wt.% relative to the total weight of proteins contained in the nutritional composition), a lipid concentration of 90mg/m L, and a carbohydrate concentration of 330mg/m L.
The nutritional composition is high in specific energy but low in viscosity, and therefore can be easily passed through the throat when taken.
Example 2
7000g of a milk protein concentrate having a reduced calcium content (manufactured by fonterra japan corporation, having a composition of "Ca-reduced MPC" shown in table 1), 3400g of rapeseed oil, 300g of a monoglyceride, 21300g of powdered dextrin, and a mixture of minerals and vitamins shown below were mixed (added) in 25000m L warm water at about 60 ℃ by the following weight, and pre-emulsified with a TK homomixer (manufactured by special machine industries), and then further mixed (added) with water to adjust the total amount to 60L, thereby obtaining a pre-emulsion.
The mixture of minerals and vitamins comprises: 100,000 μ g RE vitamin A, 800 μ g vitamin D, 4.6mg vitamin E, 340mg vitamin B1, 340mg vitamin B2, 2.8g niacinamide, 500mg vitamin B6, 1g folic acid, 560mg vitamin B12, 1g calcium pantothenate, 43g vitamin C, 133g potassium chloride, 28g potassium hydroxide, 37g magnesium carbonate, 5g ferrous sulfate.
Regarding the mixing amount of each component of the nutritional composition, the protein (Ca-reduced MPC) was 9.9 wt%, the lipid (rapeseed oil) was 4.8 wt%, and the carbohydrate (powdered dextrin) was 30.2 wt%, based on the total weight of the nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition had a specific energy of 2.4kcal/m L, a viscosity of 96mPa · s (20 ℃), a protein concentration of 96mg/m L (the content of milk protein concentrate is 100 wt.% relative to the total weight of the proteins contained in the nutritional composition), a lipid concentration of 67mg/m L, and a carbohydrate concentration of 372mg/m L.
The nutritional composition is high energy per unit but not low viscosity, and therefore can be taken very easily through the throat.
The pre-emulsion of example 2 was sterilized by steam jet sterilizer (manufactured by SPX) at 145 ℃ for × 5 seconds, and then, the pressure in the first stage was set to 50kg/cm by using a high-pressure homogenizer (manufactured by Sanko Engineering Co., Ltd.)2(4.9MPa), and the pressure in the second stage was set to 350kg/cm2(34.3MPa), and homogenization was carried out in two stages to obtain an emulsion-type nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition has a high concentration of 2.0kcal/m L or more (more than 2.0kcal/m L), but does not cause scorching even when continuously sterilized at a treatment rate of 100L hours per hour, in other words, the thermal stability is remarkably improved as compared with the case of using "a milk protein concentrate which is not subjected to the treatment for reducing the calcium content" which is remarkably inferior in thermal stability as described in patent documents 6 and 7.
Example 3
An emulsion-type nutritional composition was obtained by mixing (adding) 130m L of water into 870m L of the nutritional composition of example 2.
Regarding the amounts blended of the ingredients of the nutritional composition, the protein (Ca reduced MPC) was 8.4 wt%, the lipid (rapeseed oil) was 4.1 wt%, and the carbohydrate (powdered dextrin) was 25.8 wt%, based on the total weight of the nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition has a specific energy of 2.0kcal/m L, a viscosity of 33mPa · s (20 ℃), a protein concentration of 80mg/m L (the content of milk protein concentrate is 100 wt.% relative to the total weight of the proteins contained in the nutritional composition), a lipid concentration of 56mg/m L, and a carbohydrate concentration of 310mg/m L.
The nutritional composition is high in specific energy but low in viscosity, and therefore can be easily passed through the throat when taken.
Example 4
54kg of a milk protein concentrate having a reduced calcium content (manufactured by Fonterra Japan K.K., having a composition of "Ca-reduced MPC" shown in Table 1), 42kg of rapeseed oil, 2.4kg of a monoglyceride, 150kg of powdered dextrin, and a mixture of minerals and vitamins shown below were mixed (added) in 250L warm water at about 60 ℃ by the following weight ratios, and after pre-emulsification was performed using a TK homogenizer (manufactured by Primix K.K.), water was further mixed (added) to adjust the total amount to 500L, thereby obtaining a pre-emulsion.
The mixture of minerals and vitamins comprises: 830,000 μ g RE vitamin A, 6.7g vitamin D, 38.3mg vitamin E, 2.8g vitamin B1, 2.8g vitamin B2, 23.3g nicotinamide, 4.2g vitamin B6, 8.3g folic acid, 4.7g vitamin B12, 8.3g calcium pantothenate, 360g vitamin C, 233g potassium chloride, 308g magnesium carbonate, 42g ferrous sulfate.
The pre-emulsion was subjected to steam jet Sterilizer (SPX) to sterilize at 145 ℃ for × 5 seconds, and then, a high pressure homogenizer (Sanko Engineering Co., Ltd.) was used to set the pressure in the first stage to 50kg/cm2(4.9MPa), and the pressure in the second stage was set to 350kg/cm2(34.3MPa), and homogenization was carried out in two stages to obtain an emulsion-type nutritional composition.
Regarding the amounts blended of the ingredients of the nutritional composition, the protein (Ca reduced MPC) was 9.4 wt%, the lipid (rapeseed oil) was 7.2 wt%, and the carbohydrate (powdered dextrin) was 25.7 wt%, based on the total weight of the nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition has a specific energy of 2.4kcal/m L, a viscosity of 82mPa · s (20 ℃), a protein concentration of 90mg/m L (the content of milk protein concentrate is 100 wt.% relative to the total weight of the proteins contained in the nutritional composition), a lipid concentration of 94mg/m L, and a carbohydrate concentration of 318mg/m L.
The nutritional composition is high in specific energy but low in viscosity, and therefore can be easily passed through the throat when taken.
The nutritional composition has a high concentration of 2.0kcal/m L or more (more than 2.0kcal/m L), but does not cause scorching even after continuous sterilization at a treatment rate of 100L hours per hour, in other words, the thermal stability is remarkably improved as compared with the case of using "a milk protein concentrate which is not subjected to the treatment for reducing the calcium content" which is remarkably inferior in the thermal stability as described in patent documents 6 and 7.
The sterilized products were aseptically filled with 200m L samples in a container formed of a laminate of paper, aluminum foil and polyethylene in this order from the outer layer, and stored at 40 ℃ for 2 months using an aseptic packaging apparatus (made by Tetra Pak), and then the samples were opened and the presence or absence of precipitation and aggregation of proteins and the like was observed with the naked eye, and as a result, the amount of aggregates was significantly less as compared with the case of using "milk protein concentrate not subjected to treatment for reducing calcium content", which is described in patent documents 6 and 7, and the examples of patent documents 6 and 7, and the problem of aggregates in the conventional art was solved by the nutritional composition of the present invention.
Comparative example 1
A nutritional composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1, except that, instead of the calcium-reduced milk protein concentrate used in example 1, a milk protein concentrate (protein content: 80 wt%, manufactured by Fonterra Japan, having a composition of "MPC" in table 1) which had not been subjected to the treatment for reducing the calcium content was mixed (added) at 337 g.
Regarding the amounts blended of the ingredients of the nutritional composition, protein (MPC) was 9.7 wt%, lipid (rapeseed oil) was 6.8 wt%, and carbohydrate (powdered dextrin) was 26.6 wt%, based on the total weight of the nutritional composition.
The nutritional composition has a specific energy of 2.4kcal/m L, a viscosity of 428mPa · s (25 ℃), a protein concentration of 90mg/m L (the content of milk protein concentrate is 100 wt.% relative to the total weight of the proteins contained in the nutritional composition), a lipid concentration of 90mg/m L, and a carbohydrate concentration of 330mg/m L.
The nutritional composition is highly viscous and thus difficult to pass through the throat when administered.
