<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
SOUP
The present invention relates to a supplement for adding to a powdered or dried soup mix and also a soup comprising such a supplement.
Attempts to enhance the vitamin content of powdered soup products have so far met with little success. The addition of significant amounts of vitamins and/or minerals has been found to impact negatively on the flavour of the product.
The present invention seeks to overcome this problem of the prior art.
Accordingly, in a first aspect, the present invention provides a supplement for adding to a powdered or dried soup mix comprising (a) 24-50mwt% Vitamin Ci (b) 0. 5-24mwt% Group B Vitamins; and (c) at least one further ingredient wherein (a) plus (b) plus (c) total lOOmwt%.
Such a supplement can be added to powdered or dried soup mix with little impact on the flavour of the soup. A product of acceptable taste can be produced with a reasonable proportion (for example, up to 33% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) ) of a variety of vitamins and/or minerals with little impact on taste.
The at least one further ingredient of the supplement can preferably comprise 5-15mwt% Vitamin E. The at least one further ingredient can further comprise 0. 5-15mwt% Folic Acid.
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
At least one further ingredient can preferably comprise
Pantothenic Acid, preferably at least O. Olmwt% Pantothenic Acid.
Preferably, the Group B Vitamins of the supplement can include at least one of Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) and Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxin) and Vitamin B12.
The relative proportions of each vitamin of the supplement can be in proportion to its RDA.
Preferably the further ingredient can comprise a carrier. The carrier can preferably be a starch extract. The carrier can be at least one of Maltodextrin or Dextrose.
In a further aspect of the invention there is provided a soup comprising a supplement, the supplement comprising (a) 24-50mwt% Vitamin C; (b) 0. 5-24mwt% Group B Vitamins; and (C) at least one further ingredient wherein (a) plus (b) plus (c) total lOOmwt% of the supplement.
The soup can comprise the supplement providing up to 33% RDA of the constituent vitamins. Higher percentages can be included but it is preferred to avoid them since they may have an adverse effect on taste.
Preferably, the supplement comprises mostly water soluble vitamins, rather than oil soluble vitamins such as A and D.
Preferably, the supplement does not include calcium.

The present invention will now be described by way of example only, and not in any limitative sense.
Most vitamins are not produced in the body and therefore need to be obtained from the diet. This is particularly the case in respect of water soluble vitamins forming the main component of the subject supplement. Many people do not eat a balanced diet and therefore need vitamin supplements. All vitamins have their individual functions to perform, but some vitamins and minerals are not as widely found in foods and some are less stable than others, i. e. sensitive to light, heat or cooking processes. The function of various vitamins is given below:
1. Vitamin C Best natural sources are fresh citrus fruits, blackcurrants, peppers, sprouts. Destroyed by poor storage and cooking methods. Particularly important for the immune system, healing process and iron absorption from non-animal sources.
2. Thiamin Best sources are bread, cereals, port, (bai) bacon and milk. Lost during the preparation of food.
People who eat a lot of sugary sweet snack foods are short of this vitamin.
Particularly important for release of energy from food, especially carbohydrates, and for healthy nerve and muscle function. Very important to active people.
3. Riboflavin Best sources are milk and milk products, (B2) beef, eggs, potatoes and fortified cereals. Light sensitive. Can quickly disappear from milk left in sunlight. Not stored in the body.
Particularly important for release of energy from food, for a healthy skin, eyes and for growth. Teenagers and elderly have a low intake.
<Desc/Clms Page number 4>
4. Folic Acid Best sources are leafy green vegetables, oranges, fortified cereals, wholemeal bread, *liver and potatoes.
*Not advisable for pregnant women but folic acid is particularly important for the foetal development.
Vital for healthy blood cells, formation of new body cells and healthy growth.
5. B12 Found in meat, liver, eggs, milk, cheese, fortified breakfast cereals and yeast extract. Vegetarians have a tendency to be deficient, causing anaemia. Vital for growth and healthy nervous system and formation of red blood cels.
Works with folic acid.
Can be stored in liver-unusual for vitamins.
6. Niacin (B3) Found in meat, wholemeal bread, fortified cereals and potatoes.
A relatively stable vitamin, widely distributed in food.
Works with Thiamin and Riboflavin to maintain a healthy nervous system and digestive system. Vital for energy release in tissues and cells.
7. Pantotheni Found in liver, eggs, yeast based c Acid (B5) products, whole grains, dried fruits, pulses, nuts. Present in most types of food. Stable during cooking and storage.
Vital for release of energy from food and for healthy growth and production of antibodies.
More required following injury.
8. Pyridoxin Found in wholemeal bread, bananas, yeast (B6) extract, fortified cereals, nuts, liver and pulses vital for protein metabolism, the regular balance of amino acids.
Involved with the production of hormones.
Deficiency could lead to anaemia, skin problems, irritability.
<Desc/Clms Page number 5>
9. Vitamin E (Fat soluble) Found in vegetable oils, margarine, wheatgerm, nuts, leafy green vegetables, potatoes, meat, fish, eggs.
Important as an anti-oxidant.
Protects fat molecules in cell membranes and from oxidation which could harm body tissues. Protects against heart disease (blocked arteries).
Extra E required in particular by consumers of high amounts. of polyunsaturated fats.
10. Iron Found in red meat. Required for production of red blood corpuscles, the transportation of oxygen and functioning of some enzymes.
Deficiency can result in anaemia.
Vegetarians being particularly prone.
Example: A particular for use with dried or powdered soup mix is as follows:
9- 1. Carrier (Malto dextrin) 34.87 2. Vitamin C 24.00 3. Iron 16.67 4. Vitamin E + Carrier 11.42 5. Niacin 6.90 6. Pantothenic Acid 2.69 7. Vitamin B6 0.93 8. Folic Acid + Carrier 0.80 9. Vitamin Bl 0.70 10. Vitamin B2 0.62 11. Vitamin B12 + Carrier 0.40 100.00
<Desc/Clms Page number 6>
The above gives a broad range of vitamins and minerals which are in the proportions of their BDA and can be added to a soup mix so as to give a 33% BDA for a typical serving. The supplement is stable, easily mixes with the soup, and gives no adverse effect on the taste.
It has been found that the supplement works best when containing mostly water soluble vitamins, rather than oil soluble vitamins such as A and D. In addition, it has also been found that if Calcium is included it has a negative effect on the consistency of the product, resulting in a chalky taste/consistency.
