TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a beverage composition that is effective for improving muscle exercise function, and further relates to a beverage composition that is imparted with retort resistance. It is known that branched chain amino acids have an effective effect on improving the function of muscle exercise in sports, physical labor, etc., and are useful as beverage compositions. (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 165774/1982) However, these solutions of branched chain amino acids have a pH of about 6, and commercially available general soft drinks (pH 4.0 or less)
Sterilization is not sufficient under these sterilization conditions, and retort sterilization is required. When a beverage contains general protein, heating it in a retort causes the protein to thermally coagulate, and also produces a strong heating odor, which poses a problem. The present inventors completed the present invention as a result of studies aimed at developing a beverage composition imparted with retort resistance. That is, the present invention uses branched chain amino acids containing L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine in a weight ratio of 1:2.0 to 0.6:0.4 to 0.8.
This is a beverage composition obtained by retorting a solution containing casein or a salt thereof. The branched chain amino acid may be contained in an amount of 0.5 g or more, and the upper limit may be determined by taking into consideration the solubility of the amino acid, the body weight of the person taking it, the level of muscle exercise, etc. Usually, it is preferable that the content is 5 g/or more. The blending ratio is preferably adjusted to a weight ratio of 1:2.0 to 0.6:0.4 to 0.8 of L-leucine:L-isoleucine:L-valine, which is excellent in improving muscle exercise function. This ratio was determined by examining the average abundance ratio of these amino acids in muscle and the metabolic rate in muscle. Such amino acids are quickly absorbed and transferred into the blood, transported to various organs in the body, and further supplied to the muscles for use. Casein or its salt to be blended is specifically casein, sodium caseinate, calcium caseinate, potassium caseinate, etc., and the blending ratio thereof may be 10 g/ to 70 g/, preferably 20 g/ to 45 g/. Among these casein or its salts, sodium caseinate is particularly available and is excellent in terms of price and retort heat resistance. If the blending ratio is higher than 70g, the viscosity will be high and there will be problems as a beverage;
If it is less than g/g, it lacks richness and is not preferred. Also, when used in combination with lecithin, it has the effect of enhancing the richness of the taste. As lecithin, soybean lecithin, egg yolk lecithin, etc. can be used, and the blending ratio is 5
It is sufficient if it is within the range of g/ to 20 g/, and if it exceeds the upper limit, the rich feeling will become too strong, which is undesirable.
Below the lower limit, the effect of combined use is small. Although branched chain amino acids have the above-mentioned effects, they have a very strong bitter taste, which poses a problem in terms of ease of drinking, so it is preferable to use a sweetener to mask this bitter taste. As a sweetener,
Sugar, fructose, glucose, liquid sugar, stevioside,
Commonly used substances such as sugar alcohols can be used, but sugar is preferred from the viewpoint of its bitter taste masking effect and favorable aftertaste. In the case of sugar, the blending ratio is 30g/100g/
If other sweeteners are used, the bitter taste of branched chain amino acids can be masked by using an amount corresponding to the above blending ratio of sugar. Furthermore, although the beverage composition of the present invention is in the neutral range,
If an acidulant is added to increase the acidity, the balance between the sweetener and the acidulant will be poor, and the bitterness of the branched chain amino acids will become strong, which is undesirable. As a result of various studies on pH, a well-balanced beverage composition was obtained with a pH in the range of 6.4 to 7. If the above-mentioned beverage composition does not fall within this PH range, it is necessary to add an acidulant to adjust the PH. As the acidulant, citric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, etc. can be used, but citric acid is particularly preferable from the evaluation after retort sterilization. Furthermore, for the purpose of improving the palatability of the beverage composition,
Ingredients such as fragrances and alcohol, vitamins, minerals, herbal medicine ingredients, etc. can be blended as appropriate. When the beverage composition of the present invention is ingested, branched chain amino acids are transferred into the blood immediately after ingestion, improving muscle movement function. Therefore, it is beneficial to drink during or after sports or physical labor. Further, by constantly drinking this beverage, general muscle movement functions can be maintained. Moreover, regular use of this drink has no harmful effects. Furthermore, even when heated in a retort, no retort odor was generated, the protein was not thermally coagulated, and the beverage composition had a rich flavor. Furthermore, the bitter taste of branched chain amino acids was masked, and the beverage composition was well-balanced in taste, odor, and flavor, and had excellent palatability. Next, the present invention will be explained by examples. Example 1 50g sugar, branched chain amino acid (L-leucine: L
-isoleucine:L-valine 1:1.1:0.6) 10
g, vitamins and minerals 10g, soy lecithin 8g
30 g of each of the following proteins were blended with 1 g of citric acid and 1 g of pure water, and then retort sterilized at 121° C. for 4 minutes. As a result, the composition containing sodium caseinate was the most excellent, with no thermal coagulation and no heating odor.

g, 3 g of citric acid and 80 g of each of the following sweeteners were mixed, the mixture was made up to 1 with pure water, and the mixture was retort sterilized at 121° C. for 4 minutes. As a result, the composition containing sugar was the most effective in terms of bitterness masking effect. Example 4 Sodium caseinate 35g, branched chain amino acids 10
g, vitamins and minerals 10g, soy lecithin 8
g, 40 g to 100 g of sugar was mixed with 1 g of citric acid, made up to 1 with pure water, and then retort sterilized. As a result, the blending ratio of sugar is 50g to 80g.
It was the best in terms of bitterness masking effect and pleasant aftertaste. Example 5 1 g each of citric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, and malic acid were mixed with 50 g of sugar, 35 g of sodium caseinate, 10 g of branched chain amino acids, 10 g of vitamins and minerals, and 8 g of soybean lecithin, and the mixture was made up to 1 with pure water. Afterwards, it was retort sterilized at 121°C for 4 minutes. the result,
The composition containing citric acid was the easiest to drink. Example 6 50 g of sugar, 35 g of sodium caseinate, 10 g of branched amino acids, 10 g of vitamins and minerals, 8 g of soybean lecithin were mixed with citric acid in a pH range of 6.0 to 7.1, adjusted to 1 with pure water, and heated at 121°C for 4 minutes. Retort sterilized. As a result, a pH range of 6.4 to 7.0 was found to have the best balance between sweetener and acidulant.
