Description

The invention relates to the field of food and pharmaceutical industry, and in particular to a method for producing biologically active food additives (BAA) based on the fat of marine mammals and honey.

State of the art

Known fat-honey biologically active food supplement "Marivit" and the method of its production [patent KI 2253328, publ. 06/10/2005]. This dietary supplement contains the following main ingredients, wt.%: Bee honey - 15-30; fat of marine mammals with a content of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of at least 20 wt.% - 4-12, gelling agent isolated from seaweed and / or herbs - 0.5-4.5; water is the rest.

The high biological activity of this dietary supplement has already been confirmed and this additive has been included in the Federal Register of dietary supplements of the Russian Federation. A known method for the production of this dietary supplement includes the following process steps:

prepare a solution of a gelling agent in water, for which it is placed in water and left to swell with stirring for 24-72 hours, after which it is filtered;

a fat-honey mixture is prepared, for which bee honey and marine mammalian fat are heated in separate containers to 100-120 ° C with stirring and mixed at the same temperature, and the solution of the gelling agent is heated to 100-120 ° C and mixed with fat honey mixture at the same temperature.

However, attempts at industrial production of dietary supplements "Marivit" in this way revealed its weaknesses. Heating the ingredients to a temperature of 100-120 ° C requires a large expenditure of energy and leads to a significant increase in the cost of the produced dietary supplements, while such heating is not advisable, since it does not allow the dissolution of fat, and in the emulsion obtained, the fat still floats up during the settling process transportation and storage. In addition, already at the stage of mixing the ingredients, the heated fat mainly floats on the surface of technological containers, while it actively adheres to the walls of containers and other technological equipment, which leads to interruptions in the production process for cleaning containers, increases production losses, and does not allow control the required fat content in the finished product. The latter fact was confirmed by an independent examination of the competent authority, which established an underestimated fat content in this dietary supplement, although when laying the ingredients their required ratio was observed. In addition, many biologically active substances of the ingredients, for example, contained in honey, are destroyed when heated to a temperature of 100-120 ° C. Moreover, heating to this temperature leads to the rapid oxidation of fat from both oxygen in the air and water, and its further oxidation occurs in the finished dietary supplement, which determines the low shelf life of the finished product.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The technical task to be solved is to improve the technology for the industrial production of fat-honey biologically active food additives in order to reduce energy intensity and simplify the production technology, to preserve the biologically active components that are part of the ingredients, and increase the shelf life of the finished dietary supplement.

To solve the technical problem, a method for producing a biologically active food supplement containing an effective amount of the following ingredients is proposed: bee honey; fat of marine mammals with a content of polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids of at least 20 wt.%; a gelling agent isolated from algae and / or herbs, and water, according to which an aqueous solution of the gelling agent is mixed with marine mammalian fat and bee honey. It is new that honey bee is added to the aqueous solution of the gelling agent at a temperature of not more than 60 ° C and mixed at the same temperature, then the resulting mixture is poured into portioned containers, after which the fat of marine mammals is added to these portioned containers with subsequent capping of portioned containers.

It is possible to use the main ingredients in their following ratio, wt.%: Bee honey - 10-40; fat of marine mammals - 4-25; gelling agent - 0.5-8.0; water is the rest.

As a gelling agent, sodium alginate can be used. You can use agar-agar or other polysaccharides such as zosterol.

Preliminarily, vitamin E (α-tocopherol acetate) may be introduced into the fat of marine mammals at the rate of 0.2-0.6 mg of vitamin E for each gram of marine mammalian fat.

Mixing the ingredients can be carried out at room temperature.

Information confirming the possibility of using the invention

The invention is illustrated by the example of the production of dietary supplement "Marivit +". For the production of food additives "Marivit" use the following ingredients, wt.%:

honey bee GOST 19792-8733 fat of marine mammals GOST 8714-72 with a total content

DND and EPA not less than 25 wt.% And acid number KOH / g not more than 39 sodium alginate TU 15-544-833 α-tocopherol acetate GOST 27547-870.01 distilled water GOST 6709-72-55

Sodium alginate and distilled water were placed in a stirred reactor at room temperature and allowed to swell under stirring for 48 hours at room temperature, after which the pectin solution was subjected to vacuum filtration. Bee honey is added to the resulting aqueous solution of sodium alginate at room temperature. Both bee honey and the resulting mixture should also be filtered, for example vacuum. The resulting mixture of bee honey with an aqueous solution of sodium alginate is poured at room temperature in vacuum into 20 ml glass bottles, which corresponds to a daily dose of dietary supplement. The fat of marine mammals is pre-mixed at room temperature with α-tocopherol acetate (vitamin E) at a rate of 0.4 mg of vitamin E for each gram of marine mammalian fat, filtered and carefully refilled in vacuo into vials already filled with a mixture of bee honey with an aqueous solution of alginate sodium, after which the obtained dietary supplement is hermetically sealed. Store dietary supplement "Marivit +" at room temperature in a dark place. The use of vitamin E, known as an antioxidant, allows not only to extend the effective storage of the obtained dietary supplements to 8 months, but also to enhance the biological activity of dietary supplements.

Organoleptic properties of dietary supplement "Marivita +":
