Description

The invention relates to biotechnology, the medical and food industries in the field of food additives with biologically active properties.

When implementing a national healthy nutrition program, it is advisable to use biologically active food additives to create a balanced diet for nutrients. Biologically active food additives (BAA) - concentrates of natural substances, obtained from plant, animal or mineral raw materials by chemical or biotechnological methods.

The introduction of new dietary supplements based on unconventional raw materials into production, their use in nutrition, allows realistically and in a short time to solve the problem of providing the population with the most scarce biologically active substances that increase the body's resistance to adverse environmental conditions, improve the quality of life of patients, reduce the risk of the most common diseases, and as a result, significantly improve the health indicators of the population as a whole.

It is known to use Jerusalem artichoke concentrate as a biologically active additive. A food supplement from dried Jerusalem artichoke tubers additionally contains additives in the form of essential macro- and microelements and / or biological activators in the form of sprouted grain seeds, and / or contains fillers of natural and / or synthetic origin. [1] Dried Jerusalem artichoke tubers contain silicon, potassium, iron and other macro- and microelements, however, human needs for vital macro- and microelements when using monoadditives from Jerusalem artichoke are not fully satisfied.

The technical solution is to increase the biological activity of the additive, expanding the range of applications.

This is achieved by the fact that the proposed biologically active food supplement "Lactumin" based on the honey extract of Jerusalem artichoke in combination with lactulose and succinic acid is prepared by extraction of Jerusalem artichoke with honey in a ratio of 1: 3 for 42 days in a dark place, then the honey extract is mixed with lactulose, in which succinic acid is previously dissolved, based on 100 kg of biologically active additive, 49.7 kg of honey extract of fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers, 50 kg of lactulose concentrate, 0.3 kg of succinic acid.

The technology of preparation consists in obtaining a honey extract of fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers and mixing the extract with lactulose concentrate in which succinic acid is previously dissolved. To prepare the extract, fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers, natural honey of light varieties are used. Pure chopped Jerusalem artichoke tubers are poured with honey in a 1: 3 ratio. The extraction process is 42 days in a dark place. After exposure, the honey extract was separated by filtration. Then, the required amount of succinic acid according to the formulation is dissolved in lactulose concentrate with slight heating (up to 60 ° C) and stirring. You can use any concentrate of food lactulose with a lactulose content of at least 34.6%. Next, honey extract and lactulose concentrate are mixed with succinic acid dissolved in it in accordance with the recipe (table 1) to a homogeneous mass.

According to physicochemical parameters, the products included in the composition are well compatible, which facilitates the technology of preparation. The presence of succinic acid gives the Lactumin dietary supplement a pleasant sweet and sour taste.

The rich chemical composition of honey suggests the diversity of its biological properties. The potential prospect of honey for use in dietary supplements is due to the fact that it serves as a valuable natural source of easily digestible carbohydrates, vitamins (mainly water-soluble), enzymes, many micro and macro elements. It is recommended in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, as it reduces blood viscosity, improves lipid metabolism, stabilizes blood pressure, increases efficiency, is absorbed by muscle cells due to the presence of glycutyl in its composition, supports muscle tone, and quickly restores energy loss. The proposed dietary supplement uses honey extract of fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers, that is, honey is an extractant and is enriched with biologically active components of plant materials - fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers.

Jerusalem artichoke tubers (Helianthus tuberosus L., ground pear) contain up to 20% inulin polysaccharide, B and C vitamins, minerals - phosphorus, iron. The fructose-containing polysaccharide inulin has a low glycemic index, which is widely used for therapeutic and prophylactic nutrition [2].

In addition to honey extract, dietary supplements include lactulose concentrate and biologically active organic acid, succinic.

Lactulose refers to disaccharides, consists of the remains of galactose and fructose molecules connected by a glucosidic bond. [3] Lactulose is a classic active bifidus factor. The main mechanisms of action of the drug are associated with its metabolism: 1) lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide that is absent in nature; 2) in the small intestine there is no disaccharidase for its hydrolysis, in connection with which it is not adsorbed; 3) the hydrolysis of lactulose is carried out by bacterial disaccharidases in the colon with the production of short-chain carboxylic acids of the aliphatic (fatty) series and various gases. Lactulose is a prebiotic that promotes the growth of normal intestinal microflora; it has been proven to be useful for constipation, hepatic encephalopathy, acute intestinal infections, gallstone disease, hypercholesterolemia [3]. In the proposed dietary supplement used food lactulose concentrate food "Lactusan" composition shown in table 2.

table 2 The composition of the concentrate lactulose "Lactusan" The name of indicators Content Mass fraction,%: dry matter 58.6 lactulose 34.6 lactose 12,2 galactose 7.1 other sugars 1.3 total nitrogen 0.05 ash 0.63 calcium 0.21 sodium 0.4 magnesium 0,03 phosphorus 0,03 potassium 0.04

Biologically active succinic acid is a powerful regulator of the body's defenses, improves energy metabolism, activates the immune system, increases efficiency, and helps to eliminate toxic substances from the body.

Succinic acid in this composition enhances the preservative ability of honey, preventing the development of microflora introduced by the plant component (Jerusalem artichoke) into the extract. In addition, succinic acid regulates the acidity of the gastrointestinal tract to a pH at which unwanted microflora (individual Bacteroides strains, representatives of the intestinal microflora Clostridium, E. Coli, Str. faecalis) die, and the administered lactulose is spent only on the nutrition of bifidoflora.

Jerusalem artichoke honey extract, enriched with inulin, in combination with lactulose, inhibiting the absorption of glucose, thereby controlling its content in the blood, makes Lactumin dietary supplement not only affordable, but also recommended for patients with diabetes mellitus.

In the proposed Lactumin dietary supplement, the combination of honey extract of fresh Jerusalem artichoke tubers, lactulose concentrate and succinic acid made it possible to obtain a product that includes carbohydrates and honey sugars, plant components of Jerusalem artichoke tubers and lactulose - a prebiotic of high bifidogenic activity, which determined its functional properties: to replenish energy costs of the body, in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, to normalize and maintain intestinal microbiocenosis, maintain metabolic homeostasis .

The technology for obtaining the proposed dietary supplement allows you to maintain in the native state biologically active substances of the components, even such mobile ones as vitamins and enzymes. 100 g of dietary supplement Lactumin contains at least 0.0344 g of inulin, 18 g of lactulose, 0.3 g of succinic acid.

Dietary supplement "Lactumin" is a powerful bifidus factor, a source for replenishing energy losses, has antioxidant, immunostimulating, anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, mildly tonic and general strengthening properties, reduces the load on the liver and kidneys, and promotes the production of vitamins.

The formulation of the proposed dietary supplement is developed, focusing on the recommended levels of consumption of food biologically active substances relative to the daily needs of the human body. [four]
