Processed food of melon seeds rich in tocopherol

The present invention relates to processed melon seed food containing a large amount of tocopherol, and more particularly, through the proper processing of melon seeds excellent antioxidative function and blood circulation improvement, there is concern of destruction of active ingredients or chemical contamination due to chemical treatment The present invention relates to melon seed oil and melon seed ring, which are processed melon seed foods containing a large amount of natural tocopherol.

The danger of free radicals is increasing in modern times. Here, reactive oxygen refers to oxygen in an unstable state that is completely different from the oxygen we breathe. Oxygen, originally a stable molecular state, acts to maintain life during metabolism in the body. Superoxide radicals, hydroxyl radicals, hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen, and the like, which are called active oxygen, are generated by various physical, chemical, and environmental factors. These free radicals are the overproduction of oxygen due to environmental pollution, chemicals, ultraviolet rays, blood circulation disorders, stress.

This over-production of free radicals causes oxidation in the human body, which damages cell membranes, DNA, and all other cellular structures, and the cells lose their function or change depending on the extent of the damage. In addition to the deterioration and alteration of cellular function, free radicals oxidize various amino acids in the body, leading to a decrease in protein function. In addition, the nucleic acid may be damaged, resulting in modification and release of nucleic acid bases, cleavage of bonds, oxidative degradation of sugars, and the like, which may cause mutations and cancers. About 90% of modern diseases are known to be related to free radicals.In particular, such diseases include cancer, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, stroke, myocardial infarction, hepatitis, nephritis, atopy, Parkinson's disease, ultraviolet and radiation-related diseases. There is this.

To prevent this disease, the active oxygen in the body is to be removed. Antioxidants that remove active oxygen include vitamin E, vitamin C, uric acid, bilirubin, glutathione, and carotene.

These antioxidants have a great effect when consumed in a natural way, and research on the development of natural antioxidants that are harmless to the human body is being actively conducted. For example, there is a method of filtering and concentrating an extract obtained by extracting degreasing rice bran with a mixture of water and ethanol and then preparing an antioxidant (Domestic Patent Publication No. 95-10536). However, these methods have problems with supply of raw materials in mass production by using a rare material called rice bran.

In addition, there is a method of obtaining sulfuric acid by extracting with ethanol from turmeric, mountain lion, wormwood, donkey, tofu, gojija and sanjoin (Korean Patent Publication No. 96-3620), but in this case also a relatively expensive herbal medicine There is a problem of cost increase.

On the other hand, obesity may be a cause of modern diseases. Obesity means having too much body fat. If the body fat is 25% of body weight for men and 30% or more of body weight for women, and clinically the BMI (body mass index) is 30.1 or more, it is defined as the current body weight over 20%. . This obesity causes a number of diseases, diet, drug therapy, exercise therapy, etc. have been developed to treat obesity. A side effect of this treatment is constipation. In order to solve this constipation, it is known that eating dietary fiber (fiber) is effective. These fibers promote the movement of the large intestine, which shortens the time for the mutant to pass through the viscera and increases the amount of defecation. Smooth bowel movements are eliminated constipation, thus helping the diet. In addition, fiber affects the bacteria in the colon, inhibiting the action of carcinogenic substances, preventing colon cancer and preventing the absorption of cholesterol, preventing adult diseases, making the stomach feel less fasting and slowing the absorption of food, Serve Some fibers are combined with saline in the intestine, which is excreted from the body to prevent blood pressure from rising. It also helps prevent blood pressure from rising, which can help prevent and treat diabetes. Even people who are obese enough to eat enough fiber to suppress the digestion and absorption of nutrients to give a full feeling so do not overeat. In the case of fruits and vegetables, representative foods rich in fiber or fruit are eaten but the seeds of the fruit are discarded.

The present invention improves the problems of raw materials and manufacturing process economics, the chemical treatment of natural materials, and the like that the raw materials are expensive in the extraction and separation process of the conventional antioxidant components described above, and the large amount of antioxidants Its purpose is to provide a natural processed food containing tocopherol (vitamin E), which is harmless to the human body.

Another object of the present invention is to prepare a processed food containing a large amount of antioxidants by using raw materials that are disposed of because they do not extract antioxidants from a relatively expensive raw material and have no commodity value.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a melon ring having excellent efficacy in relieving constipation by using fiber rich in discarded melon seeds.

A melon is a fruit belonging to the fruit which has been used for a long time, and its inside contains a large amount of seeds. Seeds of melon not only contain various minerals, but also contain a large amount of tocopherol, which lowers the function of active oxygen and contains abundant fiber.

The present invention relates to a processed melon seed food containing a large amount of tocopherol, the melon seed is not chemical extraction using an organic solvent, but after washing and drying the melon seeds, and then roasted, it is compressed and milked to contain a large amount of tocopherol The present invention relates to a melon seed ring, which is obtained through a step of washing the dried melon seed oil and the melon seed and drying the powder together with glutinous rice, mixing and sterilizing.

Referring to the configuration of the present invention in detail as follows.

The type of melon seed used as raw material is not very much related, and the melon seed, which is discarded because of no commodity value, is used.

First, the melon seed oil is obtained through a process of selectively washing, drying and roasting the melon seeds, then compressing and milking them.

Raw materials should be cleaned and screened to remove foreign substances and to prevent the incorporation of foreign objects and machinery and machinery used in manufacturing.

The stir-fry is heated while stirring the melon seeds at 90 ~ 100 ℃ until light brown. Roasted melon seeds are pressed and milked at 200 ° C. (milking machine temperature).

Next, the melon seed ring is obtained through the process of selectively washing and drying the melon seed and powdering it with glutinous rice, mixing process and sterilization process. The mixing step is characterized in that the oligosaccharide is mixed with 0.1 to 0.3% by weight of the glutinous rice, melon seed formulation weight of 13 to 15% moisture content of the entire mixture. In order to manufacture melon seed ring, the raw materials are accurately measured according to the ingredients and formulations, and those that meet the standards and specifications and are free of foreign substances. Appliances and machinery used in manufacturing should be cleaned and disinfected. Finely grind melon seeds and glutinous rice in the measured raw materials and mix with oligosaccharides so that the moisture content of the blend is 13-15%.

The results of comparing the components of the melon seed oil according to the present invention with other fats and oils are as follows.

Table 1. melon. bean. corn. Sesame oil. Comparison of Whole Ingredients of Melon Seeds (Unit g / 100g)

Melon seed oil Sesame oil Soybean oil Corn oil Melon seed Saturated fatty acid 6.88 14.20 14.00 12.50 7.62 Unsaturated fatty acid 38.50 79.60 80.60 81.20 45.47 Oleic acid 8.23 40.10 21.60 34.70 8.89 Palmitoleic acid 0.02 0.10 0.10 11.20 0.02 Linoleic acid 29.74 43.70 54.20 50.50 36.41 Linolenic acid 0.51 0.30 8.10 1.50 0.16

As can be seen from the above table, compared to other fats and oils, the melon seed oil has a similar content of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids, which is an excellent level of fats and oils.

Here oleic acid is an effective ingredient for preventing and dieting adult diseases, palmitoleic acid is a functional material to improve skin protection and pancreatic function. Linoleic acid and linolenic acid lower the body's cholesterol levels, which helps with blood circulation and are effective for diet. In addition, it improves insulin resistance, such as diabetes, inhibits platelet aggregation and prevents blood clot formation, thereby lowering the mortality rate of heart disease.

Animals do not have enzymes that synthesize linoleic acid and linolenic acid in the body, so they must be obtained by eating foods. These fatty acids are called essential fatty acids. For humans, 15 to 25 grams a day is enough. Lack of linoleic acid and linolenic acid can lead to growth inhibition, skin and kidney disorders, and loss of fertility. In case of excessive deficiency, the skin should be applied.

Saturated fats and unsaturated fatty acids are ideally consumed at a ratio of about one to two. Because excessive unsaturated fatty acids are also harmful to health, it is not easy to match the ratio of unsaturated fat to saturated fatty acids while actually eating. In this case, it is recommended to take with antioxidant-rich vegetables or fruits such as beta-carotene (a precursor of vitamin A), vitamin E (tocopherol) and vitamin C. Melon contains all of these ingredients.

Table 2. Tocopherol content comparison (unit mg / 100g) of melon, soybean, corn, sesame oil, melon seed

Melon seed oil Sesame oil Soybean oil Corn oil Melon seed Tocopherol (vitamin E) 127.50 4.80 19.50 24.30 84.91

As shown in the table above, melon seed oil contains a large amount of tocopherol and its content is 5 times that of corn oil and 26 times that of sesame oil.

Known benefits of vitamin E (tocopherol) include:

Unsaturated fatty acids first save about 43% of the oxygen available to the cell. Vitamin A. Beta Carotene. Antioxidant action to prevent oxidation of sex hormones, and open the blood circulation and lower blood cholesterol levels. In addition, there is an effect of preventing the generation of blood clots by inhibiting abnormal aggregation of platelets.

The following results were obtained from the analysis of the nutritional components of the melon seed oil of the National Agricultural Research Council.

Table 3. Nutritional Analysis of Melon Seed Oil

Through the above test results, it can be seen that the melon seed oil contains tocopherol which is much higher than other oils and fats.

Meanwhile, as a result of analyzing the nutritional components of melon seeds from the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, the melon seeds contain not only various minerals but also contain a lot of fiber, which suppresses fat accumulation in the body and facilitates secretion of serous fluids for digestion and bowel movements. Palpation can lead to smooth bowel movements, and is especially rich in fat to smooth the stomach. Melon seeds also contain rich phospholipids and vitamin A (retinol) to help keep your skin healthy and moist. It also relieves dry skin and is rich in natural tocopherols, which delays the aging of cells.

Table 4. Nutritional Analysis of Melon Seeds

The minerals contained in the melon seeds are shown in the following table.

Table 5. Mineral Contents of Melon Seeds (in mg / 100g)

ingredient calcium sign iron potassium Vitamin A Vitamin B2 Vitamin B3 Vitamin C Vitamin E content 78.40 654.60 8.90 424.70 7.16 0.18 0.14 0.40 84.91

Symptoms due to the efficacy of mineral components and their deficiency include: Firstly, the melon seeds are rich in calcium, which produces bones and is involved in blood coagulation, but lack of calcium is a problem of osteoporosis. Phosphorus has the effect of strengthening bones and teeth, but lack of appetite and lethargy. If there is a lack of iron to produce blood, there is a problem of anemia, and the lack of sodium to improve blood circulation and taste good, there is a problem of fatigue, boredom, mental anxiety. High blood pressure. stroke. Diarrhea if potassium is not good enough for heart disease. throw up. There is a problem of gastrointestinal loss. Therefore, ingestion of melon seeds containing a large amount of these mineral components is beneficial to the health of the human body.

Melon seed oil and melon ring according to the present invention is a material that can be commonly purchased in the vicinity of the melon seeds discarded melon seeds to produce a processed melon seed food containing a large amount of tocopherol by physical method without going through a chemical process It works.

In addition, the melon seed ring according to the present invention is prepared by the cellulose-rich melon seed without undergoing a chemical process has excellent efficacy in constipation.
