The invention relates to a food supplement containing minerals and/or vitamins, a humectant and, for example, essential oils. The food supplement is formulated as an oral spray. In particular, the invention relates to a concentrated food supplement in the form of an oral spray, containing a combination of magnesium ions, panthenol (vitamin B5), caffeine, menthol aroma and/or peppermint aroma, and a humectant. The food supplement is particularly suited for use in sport and in stressful situations.

A polymeric composition for enhancing grip, including a modified solvent phase and a solid phase dispersed within the modified solvent phase. The modified solvent phase may include calcium-based gel, including calcium acetate particles partially dissolved in an alcoholic solution. The solid phase also includes a polymeric matrix and a plurality of desiccant particles encompassed by the polymeric matrix. The polymeric matrix includes polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and a thickener.

The present invention is related to a cosmetic method for promoting lipolysis, slimming, draining, smooth skin surface, reducing the volume of localized fat deposits, the method including applying a topical composition comprising a Nelumbo nucifera (Lotus) Extract.

The invention relates to a composition for reducing fatty tissue including at least one non-ionic surfactant as an active substance for reducing fatty tissue, wherein said non-ionic surfactant is polidocanol and the solvent is water, and a method for reducing unwanted fatty tissue by administering the composition.

The invention described herein relates to a therapeutic, moisturizing coating composition for elastomeric articles which is applied directly onto the skin-contacting surface of the article as part of the manufacturing process. The coating composition is thermally stable and subsequently hydrates when contacted with a moisturized skin surface to convert into a liquid lotion form during wearing of the article. The coating composition provides therapeutic benefits to the wearer's skin as a result of wearing the article, such as improved skin moisturization, softness of feel, improved skin elasticity and firmness, and reduced redness and irritation. The invention is particularly useful in medical gloves, including examination and surgical gloves.

The present invention provides peptoid polymers capable of reducing or inhibiting the formation of ice crystals at sub 0 C. temperatures. Also provided are peptoid-peptide hybrids comprising the peptoid polymers provided herein.
