Provided herein, inter alia, are compositions comprising one or more biologically pure strains of bacteria as well as methods of making and using the same to treat and/or prevent one or more obesity related disorders in a subject m need thereof.

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for enhancing oil recovery and protein recovery from a product from a corn fermentation process stream, such as corn syrup. Compositions generally include a product from a corn fermentation stream and an additive including at least one alkylphenol ethoxylate formaldehyde resin, at least one sodium alkyl sulfate, or a blend of at least one anionic surfactant with at least one non-ionic surfactant in a weight ratio of the at least one nonionic surfactant to the at least one anionic surfactant in a range from about 1:20 to about 20:1. Methods combine such an additive with the product from a corn fermentation stream to produce a mixture which is preferably heated and centrifuged to separate oil and protein from the product.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a phycocyanin, glycerol and a modified starch. The present invention further relates to a method for preparing the composition and the use of the composition for coloring edible products.

The present invention is generally related to methods of digesting α-amylase/trypsin inhibitors (ATI), and to the treatment and/or prophylaxis of an α-amylase/trypsin inhibitor (ATI) mediated conditions.

A method for producing a composition for food including: one kind or two kinds selected from the group consisting of a component (A): component (A1): a specific powdery granular material and component (A2): pregelatinized starch; water; edible oil and fat; and an emulsifying material, the method including a step of obtaining an emulsion by mixing the component (A), the water, the edible oil and fat, and the emulsifying material, in which the emulsifying material is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of an emulsifier, a protein, and an oil and fat-processed starch, a content of oil and fat in the emulsion is equal to or more than 0.1 and equal to or less than 120 in terms of mass ratio with respect to the component (A), and a total amount of the component (A), the water, the edible oil and fat, and the emulsifying material in the emulsion is equal to or more than 50% by mass and equal to or less than 100% by mass with respect to the entirety of the emulsion.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a reduced-calorie fruit juice or vegetable juice beverage, which is produced by reducing the calorie of a fruit juice or vegetable juice beverage, such as a 100% fruit juice or vegetable juice beverage, while maintaining the favor and juice liquid properties of fruit juice or vegetable juice. To solve this problem, there is provided a reduced-calorie fruit juice or vegetable juice beverage which maintains the flavor and juice liquid properties of fruit juice or vegetable juice, the reduced-calorie fruit juice or vegetable juice beverage being produced by treating the fruit juice or vegetable juice with a crude enzyme preparation of fructosyl transferase having substantially no pectinase activity.

The current invention is directed to a treatment of a proliferative disease comprising administering to a subject in need of such treatment, a composition comprising epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), curcumin, glucosinolates and, optionally Daikon radish sprout, alone or in combination with providing a ketogenic diet or a modified ketogenic diet to the subject. The invention also provides a composition comprising medium chain triglycerides, Epigallocatechin-3-gallate, curcumin, compositions comprising glucosinolates and/or derivatives thereof, such as glucoraphanin and its breakdown product sulforaphane, (SFN) (which are found at high levels in broccoli sprouts or sprouts of other cruciferous vegetables), and, optionally Daikon radish sprout.

An extended shelf-life proteinaceous meat analogue comprising vegetable proteins, including at least wheat gluten, and a plasticizer. Said proteinaceous meat analogue has a water content of less than 20% (w/w) and a torque value at 10 mn of at least 10 gram meter (g*m), as determined by a test A. A method for obtaining an extended shelf-life proteinaceous meat analogue comprises the steps of (i) mixing vegetable proteins, including at least vital wheat gluten, and a plasticizer for obtaining a dough, and (ii) heating said dough, wherein said extended shelf-life proteinaceous meat analogue has a water content of less than 20% (w/w). A foodstuff comprises said extended shelf-life proteinaceous meat analogue and the method for obtaining said foodstuff.
