Abstract

FIELD: food processing industry, in particular food supplements.

SUBSTANCE: claimed food supplement with hypocholesteronemic properties represents ground grape seeds, wherein grape seeds are ground in thin film at pulsed pressure gradient of 70-90 MPa and temperature of 50-70°C.

EFFECT: food supplement of increased quality, containing functional ingredients with hypocholesteronemic properties, such as mineral substances, polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, oil- and water-soluble vitamins.

Description

The invention relates to the food industry and can be used to obtain high-quality biologically active additives (BAA), used for direct consumption as a prophylaxis or to create functional food products.

Known biologically active food supplement, consisting of fried grape seeds, crushed in two stages, the first of which the seeds are crushed (Patent 2159053 RU, IPC 7 A23L 1/30, 1/302. Publ. 20.11.2000. Bull. No. 32 )

The disadvantage of such a biologically active additive is that in the process of its production, grape seeds are fried at sufficiently high temperatures, which in turn leads to a decrease in the content of carotenoids, including β-carotene, tocopherols, flavonoids, as well as the oxidation of lipids contained in grape seeds, as a result of which the indicated dietary supplement does not have hypocholesterolemic properties.

The objective of the invention is the creation of a new dietary supplement to food with hypocholesterolemic properties.

The problem is solved in that a biologically active food supplement with hypocholesterolemic properties is characterized by the fact that it is crushed grape seeds obtained by crushing in a thin film with a pulsating pressure gradient of 70-90 MPa and a temperature of 50-70 ° C.

The technical result is to give the biologically active additive hypocholesterolemic properties, which is achieved due to the presence in it of physiologically functional food ingredients, such as minerals, polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, fat-and water-soluble vitamins.

As we have shown experimentally, upon receipt of the claimed dietary supplement according to the indicated regimes, all necessary physiologically functional ingredients are preserved in it, which ensure the normalization of cholesterol in the body.

Hypocholesterolemic effect is to reduce excess cholesterol in blood serum and in the liver.

Among non-drug methods of exposure with high cholesterol, the leading role belongs to diet therapy and the use of natural biologically active substances. Among the latter, vegetable oils and preparations based on them are widely used.

However, there is evidence that a diet high in vegetable oils has contraindications in some cases.

It is known that substances with a hypocholesterolemic effect realize it by lowering cholesterol levels in the blood serum and in the liver.

In connection with the foregoing, the criteria for the presence and degree of manifestation of the hypocholesterolemic effect can be indicators such as changes in the level of cholesterol in the liver and in blood serum when using the tested hypocholesterolemic agent.

The data characterizing the hypocholesterolemic effect of the claimed dietary supplement to food is confirmed in experiments on white rats, 25% of the feed ration of which was provided by the claimed dietary supplement. The control group of animals did not receive the claimed dietary supplement.

Feeding was carried out according to the principle of "plenty" with free access to water. The duration of the experiments was 3 months.

Hypocholesterolemic effect of the claimed dietary supplement is illustrated by examples, the initial indicators in which the modes of its production were used, and experimentally determined indicators are the mass fraction of cholesterol in blood serum and the mass fraction of cholesterol in the liver.

Example 1. A biologically active food supplement consists of crushed grape seeds obtained by crushing in a thin film at a pulsating pressure gradient of 70 MPa and a temperature of 70 ° C.

The values of the studied indicators are shown in table 1.

Table 1 Indicators Experimental group (claimed dietary supplement) Control group Mass fraction of cholesterol in blood serum, mmol / l 6.05 10.15 Mass fraction of cholesterol in the liver,% 0,305 0.351

Example 2. A biologically active food supplement consists of crushed grape seeds obtained by crushing in a thin film at a pulsating pressure gradient of 80 MPa and a temperature of 60 ° C.

table 2 Indicators Experimental group (claimed dietary supplement) Control group Mass fraction of cholesterol in blood serum, mmol / l 5.90 10.15 Mass fraction of cholesterol in the liver,% 0.295 0.351

The values of the studied indicators are shown in table 2.

Example 3. A biologically active food supplement consists of crushed grape seeds obtained by crushing in a thin film at a pulsating pressure gradient of 90 MPa and a temperature of 50 ° C.

The values of the studied indicators are shown in table 3.

Table 3 Indicators Experimental group (claimed dietary supplement) Control group Mass fraction of cholesterol in blood serum, mmol / l 6.00 10.15 Mass fraction of cholesterol in the liver,% 0,300 0.351

Thus, the claimed dietary supplement is a natural physiologically valuable product of plant origin, with hypocholesterolemic properties, and can be recommended for direct consumption as an independent prophylactic or against the background of general diet therapy, as well as to create functional food products.
