Description
Multiple-phase dietary supplement product
Field of the invention
This invention relates to dietary supplement products, to a method of diet supplementation and to a product for use in such method. Background to the invention
The field of dietary supplement products is a very crowded field. Numerous patents have been granted in respect of such supplements and a myriad of products are available on the market. Such product as have been disclosed and marketed are of varying compositions and represent different schools of thought as to the desirable content of the various products. Also, such products are formulated for general use, or for the dietary requirements of specific population groups such as babies, children under 12 years of age, adolescents, women, lactating women, pre-menopausal women, post-menopausal women, men, aged persons and the like.
The vast majority of such dietary supplement products are formulated to contain all the selected dietary supplement components in a single dosage form formulation which is usually presented and intended to be taken once a day. In some instances the daily dose is presented in two or three dosage forms, such as capsules or tablets which are intended to be taken together, usually with meals.
In an exception to this general rule there are disclosures in some patents of dosage regimes wherein the dietary supplement product is made up of two or more dosage forms of different compositions. Thus in US patent 5,514,382 (Sultenfuss) the claims are inter alia directed at a daily vitamin and mineral supplement of a certain composition and wherein the daily vitamin and mineral supplement is formed into three oral dosage forms for ingestion on a daily basis for example, one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. It also states that for women over 40 years of age, the preferred embodiment of that invention is formed into four pills with one of these pills containing only iron. It explains that this allows women over 40 years of age the flexibility of ingesting or not ingesting the iron, "since it is not clear at this time whether ingestion of iron by women over 40 years of age has positive or deleterious effects. The fourth pill is the one containing only iron." (see Column 8 lines 25 - 35)
Very little attention has been given to the known fact that certain dietary supplement components may affect each other either beneficially or detrimentally. Interactions can occur by means of two fundamental mechanisms. Thus one micronutrient may directly affect the absorption of another micronutrient by either single interference (one micronutrient has a negative effect on the other micronutrient) or double interference (two or more micronutrients have negative effects on one another). Also, deficiency or excess of one nutrient within the organism may affect the in vivo metabolism of another micronutrient.
One patent which would appear to deviate in this regard is US patent 6,471 ,969 (Schlachter). It discloses a product comprising two differently formulated preparations in which the components in the respective preparations are selected with respect to their synergistic and antagonistic effects. However, it fails to provide details in respect of such a selection process other than to mention a few examples. Thus it mentions at column 2 line 56 that it is known that bioflavonoids have antioxidant properties and therefore synergistically complement the effect of vitamins C, E and beta carotene. It also mentions at column 3 line 47 that it is known that the simultaneous intake of minerals and trace elements in a single form of administration can adversely affect the resorption of the individual components and states that amongst others, magnesium and calcium as well as iron, zinc and selenium adversely affect each other.
Another patent which recognises the benefits of avoiding the combination in the same dosage form of dietary supplement components is patent application WO 01/43571 A1 (Hohulin). The present inventor however is not in agreement with all of the alleged beneficial and detrimental combinations which Schlachter and Hohulin teach in the aforesaid patents, Instead, the present inventor has specific combinations which according to present invention are to be avoided or combined in the same dosage forms.
The present inventor also proposes the inclusion of specific amino acids in the said combinations and dosage forms in order to maintain the structural and functional intergrity of the mucosa lining: These specified amino acids show beneficial properties with micronutrient combinations i.e. enhanced absorption from the alimentary tract per se and/or enhanced physiologic function at tissue levels following absorption from the gut.
Object of the invention
It is an object of the present invention to provide multi-phase dietary supplement products in which specific detrimental dietary supplement component combinations are absent and, in the preferred form of which, specific beneficial dietary supplement component combinations are present.
Description of the invention
According to the present invention there is provided a multiple-phase dietary supplement product comprising at least two dosage form preparations which collectively contain a selected combination of dietary supplementation components and wherein none of the dosage forms contain any one of the following combinations of dietary supplementation components, which combinations are herein referred to as detrimental combinations of dietary supplement components, namely:

Iron and Magnesium;
Iron and Zinc;
Copper and Zinc;
