A composition and method for supplementing food, nutrition, and diet systems with omega-6 to omega-3 balanced oils comprising a synergistic blend of at least two oils. The composition further comprises a synergistic blend of long chain omega-3 oil as a means to further increase the nutritional value. The composition provides an effective increase in therapeutic and pharmacological properties in nutrition and diet systems.

This disclosure relates to pregelatinized starches having a high degree of process tolerance, and methods for making and using them. In one aspect, the disclosure provides a pregelatinized starch having no more than 15 wt % solubles and a sedimentation volume in the range of 20 mL/g to 45 mL/g, the pregelatinized starch being in the form of agglomerates comprising starch particles, the pregelatinized starch being in a substantially planar form. In another aspect, the disclosure provides a pregelatinized starch having no more than 15 wt % solubles, and a sedimentation volume in the range of 20 mL/g to 45 mL/g, the pregelatinized starch being in the form of agglomerates comprising starch particles. In certain embodiments, the starch is drum-dried. In certain embodiments, the pregelatinized starches of the disclosure have a Yellowness Index no more than 10.

Packaged aerated acidified food compositions (e.g., aerated dips, sauces, etc.) having a low density (e.g., 0.4 to 0.8 g/cm.sup.3) due to incorporation of gas bubbles (e.g., nitrogen or air) within an aerated matrix. In addition to the aerated matrix the composition further includes a relatively high fraction of oil (e.g., as an oil/water emulsion). The compositions are shelf-stable, so as to exhibit microbial stability and stability with respect to the aerated low density whipped texture, without requiring refrigeration. The composition includes the aerating gas (e.g., nitrogen or air), a protein (e.g., soy or dairy), a stabilizer (e.g., a hydrocolloid, a cyclodextrin, a monoglyceride, and/or a diglyceride), oil, water, an emulsifier, and a food grade acid. Flavors, spices, and other components may be included.

Provided herein are edible, shelf-stable, water-soluble oil-in-syrup emulsions of cannabinoid microcapsules. The disclosed emulsions provide extended cannabinoid release and predictable and consistent blood plasma levels of cannabinoids upon ingestion. Also provided are methods for producing the disclosed emulsions.

The present invention provides a solid fat composition that includes an oil having saturated fat and an oil having at least one long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid. In particular, the solid fat composition can have high levels of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid and low to no presence of emulsifiers. In preferred embodiments, the polyunsaturated oil is an unwinterized microbial oil. The invention also relates to methods for making such compositions and food, nutritional, and pharmaceutical products comprising said compositions.

Composition of a hypoallergenic, plant-based vegan product by combining water with a hypoallergenic-substrate, and a plant-based butter and/or cream including at least one or more of sunflower seed butter and/or coconut cream. The resulting slurry is then subjected to a preservation process. In an alternative method, the resulting slurry is inoculated in order to reduce its pH.

The invention relates to a method for providing a structuring fat by the interesterification of a first fat with a high content of saturated long chain fatty acids with a second fat or oil to provide triglyceride compositions having an increased level of H-type fatty acids, especially C18:0 at the 2-position, the triglyceride compositions thus obtained and spreads made therefrom.

Certain characteristics of esterified propoxylated glycerol compositions and reduced-fat food products prepared therefrom may be modified and improved by combining such esterified propoxylated glycerol compositions with particular triglyceride compositions having higher melting points, wherein the melting and crystallization properties of each component are taken into account when selecting them for combination. For instance, EPG-based confectionary products having reduced issues with slump, blocking and demolding may be prepared by incorporating such a higher melting triglyceride composition, without compromising the organoleptic qualities of the resulting confectionary.
