Description

Anregendes Schnupfmittel Stimulating snuff
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein anregendes Schnupfmittel , das weder Tabak noch Nicotin enthältThe present invention relates to a stimulating snuff that contains neither tobacco nor nicotine
Es ist bereits eine Vielzahl von Schnupfmitteln bekannt, die Tabak oder Tabakextrakte wie Nicotin enthalten (sog. Schnupftabak), vgl. DE-PS 23 13 996, Derwent Abstract 90- 271101/36 und US 45 45 392. In der EP 01 48 748 A2 wird ein weiterer Schnupftabak offenbart, der ein im wesentlichen reines Nicotinsalz, ein in Wasser lösliches Streckmittel und gegebenenfalls eine organische Säure enthält. Als Streckπ.Atel werden organische Zucker eingesetzt.A large number of snuff agents are already known which contain tobacco or tobacco extracts such as nicotine (so-called snuff), cf. DE-PS 23 13 996, Derwent Abstract 90-271101 / 36 and US 45 45 392. EP 01 48 748 A2 discloses another snuff which contains an essentially pure nicotine salt, a water-soluble excipient and optionally an organic acid contains. Organic sugars are used as Streckπ.Atel.
Nicotinhaltige Stoffe sind jedoch extrem schädlich und führen zu einem erhöhten Herzinfarktrisiko . Bei dauerhafter Anwendung führen sie zu Erkrankungen der Herzkranzgefäße und körperlichen Funktionsstörungen. Daneben bewirkt die Absorption von Nicotin über die Nasenschleimhaut eine Reizung der Atemwege, eine verschnupfte Nase oder tränende Augen, Übelkeit, Kopfweh, Schwindel und Herzklopfen. Tabak enthält überdies eine Reihe von gesundheitsschädli¬ chen Zusatzstoffen, die z.T. cancerogen sind. Demgegenüber ist es die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein neues Schnupfmittel bereitzustellen, das nicht die Nachteile von Tabak oder Nicotin enthaltenden Schnupfmitteln aufweist.However, nicotine-containing substances are extremely harmful and lead to an increased risk of heart attack. When used continuously, they lead to coronary artery disease and physical dysfunction. In addition, the absorption of nicotine through the nasal mucosa causes irritation to the respiratory tract, a runny nose or watery eyes, nausea, headache, dizziness and palpitations. Tobacco, moreover, contains a number of gesundheitsschädli ¬ chen additives, some of which are carcinogenic. In contrast, it is the object of the present invention to provide a new snuff which does not have the disadvantages of snuff containing tobacco or nicotine.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Schnupfmittel gelöst, das weder Tabak noch Nicotin enthält und das mindestens ein anregendes, aufputschendes oder stimulierendes Mittel (im weiteren 'anregendes Mittel' genannt) enthält (Anspruch 1) .This problem is solved by a snuff which contains neither tobacco nor nicotine and which contains at least one stimulating, stimulating or stimulating agent (hereinafter referred to as 'stimulating agent') (claim 1).
Schnupfmittel weisen den Vorteil auf, daß es durch sie nicht zu einer Belästigung der Mitmenschen z.B. durch Rauch kommt und daß Kleidung und Haare nicht den Geruch von Rauch (sog. kalter Rauch) annehmen.Snuffing agents have the advantage that they do not annoy other people, e.g. comes from smoke and that clothes and hair do not accept the smell of smoke (so-called cold smoke).
Als anregende Mittel kommen erfindungsgemäß insbesondere Sympathomimetika und/oder Analeptika in Betracht (Anspruch 2) . Hierunter werden vor allem auch Noradrenalin und sol- ehe Substanzen verstanden, die physiologisch Noradrenalin freisetzen können, soweit diese nicht unter das Betäu- bungsmittelgesetz fallen.According to the invention, in particular sympathomimetics and / or analeptics are considered as stimulating agents (claim 2). This includes above all noradrenaline and such substances, which can release noradrenaline physiologically, provided that these are not covered by the Narcotics Act.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Er- findung sind die anregenden Mittel pulverförmiger Kaffee, Tee, Mate und/oder Kakao mit einem natürlichen Gehalt an anregenden Substanzen. Dabei weisen die getrockneten und zermahlenen Planzenbestandteile (z.B Kaffeebohnen, Teeblätter) typischerweise einen z.B. Coffeingehalt zwischen 0,5 und 8 Gew.-% auf. Gegebenenfalls kommen auch Extrakte dieser natürlichen Anbauprodukte als anregenden Mittel in Frage, wobei diese tyoischerweise eine höhere Konzentration der anregenden Substanzen, also z.B. an Coffein, aufweisen.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the stimulating agents are powdered coffee, tea, mate and / or cocoa with a natural content of stimulating substances. The dried and ground plant components (e.g. coffee beans, tea leaves) typically have a e.g. Caffeine content between 0.5 and 8 wt .-%. If necessary, extracts of these natural crop products can also be used as stimulating agents, these tyoically having a higher concentration of the stimulating substances, e.g. of caffeine.
Auch pulverförmige Zusätze, die nach Trocknung und gege- benfalls Röstung der Samen der Schlingpflanze Paullinia sorbilis oder cupana erhalten werden, bzw. Extrakte dieser Samen (Guarana) werden bevorzugt als anregende Mittel eingesetzt (Anspruch 3) . Ebenfalls in pulverisierter Form werden getrocknete Früchte eines chinesischen Strauchs (Schizandra) mit ihrem natürlichen Gehalt an anregenden Substanzen als anregende Mittel in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Schnupfmittels verwendet oder in Kombination mit weiteren anregenden Mitteln im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung eingesetzt. Der natürliche Gehalt an anregenden Substanzen bleibt somit unverändert . Auch in diesem Fall können Extrakte Verwendung finden.Powdery additives obtained after drying and, if necessary, roasting the seeds of the creeping plant Paullinia sorbilis or cupana, or extracts of these seeds (guarana) are preferably used as stimulating agents (claim 3). Also in pulverized form, dried fruits of a Chinese shrub (Schizandra) with their natural content of stimulating substances are used as stimulating agents in a preferred embodiment of the snuff according to the invention or in combination with other stimulating agents within the meaning of the present invention. The natural content of stimulating substances remains unchanged. Extracts can also be used in this case.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird mindestens ein als Konzentrat vorliegendes Methylxanthin, also z.B. Coffein, Theobromin und/oder Theophyllin, als anre- gende(s) Mittel im Schnupfmittel eingesetzt (Anspruch 4). Tauπn, Derivate des Taunns mit physiologisch ähnlicher Wirkung wie das Taurin, Nicotinsäureethylamid und/oder Campher können ebenfalls zum Einsatz kommen, gegebenfalls mit mindestens einem Methylxanthin und/oder mit Pulvern natürlicher Anbauprodukte oder deren Extrakten, die mindestens ein Methylxanthin enthalten.In a further preferred embodiment, at least one methylxanthine present as a concentrate, i.e. e.g. Caffeine, theobromine and / or theophylline, used as stimulant (s) in the snuff (claim 4). Tauπn, derivatives of taunn with a physiologically similar effect as taurine, nicotinic acid ethyl amide and / or camphor can also be used, if necessary with at least one methylxanthine and / or with powders of natural cultivation products or their extracts which contain at least one methylxanthine.
Campher wird in den erfindungsgemäßen Zusammensetzungen vorzugsweise in einer Konzentration von weniger als 2 Gew.-% eingesetzt.Camphor is preferably used in the compositions according to the invention in a concentration of less than 2% by weight.
Derartige Schnupfmittel weisen gegenüber Schnupftabak den besonderen Vorteil auf, daß es anders als beim Gebrauch von nicotinhaltigen Schnupftabaken zu keiner Gesund- heitsschädigung kommt, das Schnupfmittel aber dennoch anregend ist.Such snuff agents have the particular advantage over snuff that, unlike the use of snuff containing nicotine, there is no damage to health, but the snuff is nevertheless stimulating.

Insbesondere Vitamine sind der Gesundheit zuträglich, so daß derartige Zusatzstoffe enthaltende Mittel sogar die Gesundheit fördern können. Vorzugsweise erfolgt der Zusatz der Vitamine über Zugabe des Pulvers getrockneter vitaminhaltiger Früchte oder getrockneter Extrakte von vitaminhaltigen Früchten.The stimulating agent preferably contains at least one additive such as vitamins, carbohydrates, antioxidants, sweeteners, carriers, preservatives, diluents, colorants, fragrances, flavors, drying agents or humectants (claim 5). Vitamins in particular are beneficial to health, so that agents containing such additives even those Can promote health. The vitamins are preferably added by adding the powder of dried vitamin-containing fruits or dried extracts of vitamin-containing fruits.
