Description

The invention relates to the field of food industry, in particular to the field of production of functional food products.

Functional foods (FPPs) are defined as traditional foods enriched with supplements that are beneficial to human health, i.e. functional ingredients.

Functional food products include:

- food products naturally containing the required amounts of a functional ingredient or group thereof;

- natural products, additionally enriched with some functional ingredient or group thereof;

- natural products from which a component has been removed that interferes with the physiological activity of the functional ingredients present in them;

- natural products in which the original potential functional ingredients are modified so that they begin to show their physiological activity or this activity is enhanced;

- natural food products, in which, as a result of various modifications, the bioavailability of the functional ingredients included in them increases;

- natural or artificial products, which, as a result of a combination of the above technological methods, acquire the ability to maintain and improve the physical and mental health of a person and / or reduce the risk of diseases. [Roberfroid M.V. Global view on functional foods: European perspectives // British J. Nutrition. 2002, 88, 2, 133-138]

The ideological principle of the developed series of functional products is the absence of preservatives, dyes, flavorings and other artificial food additives in them. The main ingredients of the products are fruits, berries and vegetables (powders) dried using a special innovative technology, as well as various food components that allow you to vary the taste, aroma and functional properties of the products.

Dried chopped vegetables, fruits and berries contain dietary fiber, pectins and fiber, which have the properties of prebiotics.

Prebiotics are substances that are the basis of the vital intestinal microflora and stimulate its growth. Regular use of prebiotics has a beneficial effect on the human body: immunity increases, resistance to adverse environmental factors, and dysbiosis, allergies and other diseases are prevented.

Pectins are soluble dietary fiber, biopolymers that are part of the cell walls, median plates and cytoplasm of plant cells. They are present in almost all fruits and vegetables. Being a structural element of tissues, pectins provide integrity and stabilization of cell tissues in plants.

Powders from vegetables, fruits and berries contain insoluble dietary fiber, which are also prebiotics. They are not adsorbed in the small intestine, but are fully or partially fermented in the colon, regulate the functions of the gallbladder and digestion of food, stimulate the growth of microorganisms. These include cellulose, hemicellulose, resistant starch.

It is known that pomegranate with a peel contains a large amount of citric, malic and oxalic acids, tannins and pectin. Pomegranate fruits and juice have a diuretic, choleretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, wound healing, antiseptic, antisclerotic, astringent, anthelmintic and vitamin action. They improve blood formation processes, increase the secretion of the glands of the gastrointestinal tract. Fresh fruits are effective for coughing, colds and malaria, they are prescribed as a general strengthening agent for the depletion of the body. Seeds mixed with honey are used as an ointment for inflammation of the nail bed, purulent ulcers, diseases of the ear and nose.

Known (RU, application 2014150700, publ. 07/10/2014) composition for instant drinks, containing a natural fruit component, biologically active substances and / or their sources, starch, a binder component, food acid, carbohydrates, vitamins and vitamin-like substances, flavoring . In addition, it additionally contains a berry component, including pomegranate powder, and / or a vegetable component, mineral additives, spices and / or spices, and cereals or vegetable or animal proteins are used as a binding component, and as biologically active ones substances and / or their sources - food and / or herbal medicinal raw materials, amino acids, flavonoids, organic acids.

A disadvantage of the known product should be recognized as the use of a small amount of pomegranate processed in an unknown manner and with unknown biologically active properties.

Known (SU, copyright certificate 1733448, publ. 05/15/1992) a method of complex processing of the peel and partitions of pomegranate fruits. According to the known method, the crusts and partitions of pomegranate fruits are dried, crushed and cyclically extracted with a 1: 4 hydraulic module in three stages to obtain biologically active substances used in the food industry as a food additive at each stage.

The disadvantage of this method should be recognized as the incompleteness of extraction of biologically active substances from the fetus, since not all pomegranate fruit is confirmed by processing.

The known composition is adopted as the closest analogue of the developed technical solution.

The technical problem solved by the developed technical solution consists in the emergence of a new type of food additives.

The technical result achieved by the implementation of the developed technical solution consists in the appearance of a natural food supplement that enhances the hematopoietic function of the body, increases the formation of hemoglobin in red blood cells, increases the rate of protein metabolism, the additive also has the property of lowering heart rate with increasing blood pressure due to increased viscosity blood while increasing body weight.

To achieve the specified technical result, it is proposed to use a food supplement, which is pomegranate powder with a peel, obtained by drying the feedstock in two stages, while in the first stage, drying is carried out to a residual moisture content of 30-35% at a temperature of up to 90 ° C, and in the second stage - to a residual moisture content of 6-8% at a temperature not exceeding 40 ° C, with simultaneous disintegration of the processed materials.

To obtain pomegranate powder with a peel, a device known from RF patent No. 2381657 or similar equipment can be used.

Studies of the obtained food additives were carried out at the State Scientific Institution All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Meat Industry named after V. M. Gorbatova of the Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

In the course of work, we solved two main tasks:

1. To study the effect of the studied pomegranate powder with a peel obtained by drying the feedstock in two stages, while in the first stage, drying is carried out to a residual moisture content of 30-35% at a temperature of up to 90 ° C, and in the second stage to a residual moisture content of 6- 8% at a temperature not exceeding 40 ° C, with the simultaneous disintegration of the processed materials, on the clinical and physiological parameters of laboratory animals.

2. To study the possibility of toxic effects when using the specified pomegranate powder with a peel.

To accomplish these tasks, studies were conducted under experimental conditions on white rats of the Wistar line. Studies were performed on clinically healthy animals, which were previously kept in quarantine for 5 days.

The weight of the animals at the beginning of the experiment ranged from 190 ± 20 grams. The experimental group consisted of 6 animals.

The studied garnet powder with peel was mixed in an amount of 3% with finely ground meat, and the resulting mixture was added to boiled pearl barley. The intake of minerals was provided through feed.

The control group consisted of the same rats and received a standard diet of vivarium (pearl barley porridge with minced meat, compound feed).

Weighing was carried out every 4 days. Daily monitoring of animals. The clinical status, behavior pattern and physical activity of animals, appetite, water intake were recorded, and the state of the mucous membranes and hairline was monitored. The state of the cardiovascular system was evaluated using a non-invasive blood pressure measurement system on days 20 and 27 of the experiment. A non-invasive blood pressure measurement system in rats allows you to measure heart rate, systolic, diastolic and average pressure.

At the end of the experiment, the animals were killed in a chamber for euthanasia using carbon dioxide. Stunned animals were bled from the ventricles of the heart for a general clinical and biochemical study.

Also, at the end of the experiment, an autopsy was performed on the animals with a visual examination of the internal organs, and the body weight of the animals and internal organs (liver, spleen, kidney, heart) was measured.

During the experiment, it was found that rats that consumed pomegranate powder with peel willingly ate a diet, their condition was in a state of physiological norm. They gained 24.9% of their initial body weight in 28 days. Moreover, a slight increase in the number of lymphocytes and granulocytes was observed in animals. In animals, a slight decrease in the content of monocytes, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, and platelets was noted.

Therefore, the above experiments confirm that the pomegranate powder with the peel obtained in this way enhances the hematopoietic function of the body, increases the formation of hemoglobin in red blood cells, increases the rate of protein metabolism, the additive also has the property of reducing heart rate with increasing blood pressure due to increased blood viscosity while increasing body weight.

The resulting pomegranate powder without a peel may be included in the recipe of bakery products, cereals, meat dishes, drinks.
