Description

PROBIOTIC SUPPLEMENT CAPSULE CONTAINING ACTUAL KEFIR
GRAINS
Technological Area:
This invention is about the probiotic supplement capsule containing actual kefir grains, which can be used to take kefir grain, strengthening immune and digestive system, as probiotics.
Current Situation of The Technique:
For the purpose of enhancing the quality of life, trend toward healthy, natural and safe foods and nutraceutical food supplements has been increased in the world and in our country. By understanding the effects of healthy diet on quality of life especially in developed countries, probiotics are rapidly being more popular day by day.
While long and healthy life of Caucasians is being associated with kefir, the health effects of kefir produced from kefir grains due to its’ probiotic ingredient, is also determined by scientists. Kefir grains can not be produced out of nothing, there should be a quality grain with favorable ingredient in order to produce. Kefir grain slowly increases its’ biomass under suitable fermentation conditions. Milk quality, yeasting frequency and providing suitable fermentation conditions are parameters which effect biomass increase. As a result of everyday yeasting under suitable conditions, kefir grain mass will be two times more in a month (Guzel-Seydim et ah, 2011). While the biomass of kefir grain yeast is increasing one important parameter is maintaining its’ microbial activity and ingredient. Kefir grain is like a microorganism mine. Uncontaminated healthy grain naturally embodies various effective lactic acid bacterias and yeasts in rich amounts. While this rich microbiota in kefir is very important, one issue that is also equally important is the existence of characteristic bacterias of the kefir grain: Lactobacillus kefir, L. kefiranofaciens, L. kefirgranum, L. Parakefir, probiotic characteristics of which are proven, is not found in any other resource in nature and only specific to kefir grain. In addition Saccharomyces spp. and Kluyveromyces spp. yeasts are also found in kefir grain and kefir.
In industrial kefir production, kefir starter cultures are used which are not comparable to kefir grain ingredient and not containing characteristic grain microorganisms and rich diversity. Therefore it’s important for kefir to be produced from kefir grain in order to achieve the effects specified in scientific publications and this matter is being indicated in recent publications too. Bourrie vd. (2016), in his publication where he throughly studied the microbial and health effects of kefir, has particularly stated that health effects of kefir produced from starter culture is not known well and thus only the health effects of kefir produced from kefir grain is explained. Guzel-Seydim vd. (2016) has stated that health effects specified in scientific publications can be achieved by actual kefir produced from kefir grain. Consequently, this significant difference in microbial ingredient of kefirs produced with starter culture is limiting the health effects.
Ther reason why kefir starter culture is preferred in industry is it being relatively cheap with standart easy production. Production and development of kefir grain in industrial extent requires technical knowledge due to the dynamic diversity of microflora in it. Recent years food supplements tended to enhance quality of life, is becoming more popular in all over the world, especailly in developed countries. Food supplements containing functional bioactive compounds, have widely taken their place in market shelfs. There isn’t any probiotic supplement (as a capsule) in the world that contains actual kefir grain.
The“Kefir capsule” is being explained in the utility model application numbered TR200801523. These are kefir capsules that provide easy consuming of kefir and avoid waste of time by removing the need for inconvenient yeasting process. What is referred in the utility model application mentioned above is one kefir capsule. In the said capsule chemical substances are used as thickening agents. These chemicals causes negative effects for human health. On the other hand, it’s not mentioned in the said product that kefir must be pulverized and the product is explained completely apart from scientific methods. Told product is disadvantageous by means of cost and health.
In conclusion there is a need for a hygenic, highly efficient and low cost new technology that overcomes the disadvantages mentioned above, can positively effect human health, enables easy access to kefir, effective on individuals with digestive and immune system disorders, contains no GMO, practically meets kefir probiotic needs.
