TH15078U - Dietary supplements for weight loss using hydrocolloids and their manufacturing process. - Google Patents

Abstract

Page 1 of 1. Summary of the Invention: This invention describes a weight-loss dietary supplement using a hydrocolloid. It consists of glucomannan, hydrocolloid, starch, polydextrose, sodium bicarbonate, flavoring agents, and sweeteners. The manufacturing process involves mixing the glucomannan, hydrocolloid, starch, polydextrose, sodium bicarbonate, and sweeteners. Flavoring agents are added, and the mixture is blended until homogeneous. All steps are performed at a temperature of 22-25 degrees Celsius. The resulting product is then packaged. The weight-loss dietary supplement uses a hydrocolloid and exhibits increased viscosity due to the combination of at least one type of hydrocolloid with glucomannan. This causes the supplement to absorb water and swell rapidly after consumption, resulting in increased viscosity and thus a faster feeling of fullness. Reducing food cravings or consuming smaller quantities leads to better weight control. In addition, this substance helps block the absorption of sugar, triglycerides, and fats into the bloodstream. The product is soluble in both cold and room temperature water and can be mixed into beverages or soups to enhance nutritional value. Therefore, this product is another option for those who want to control their weight or maintain good health.
