The present invention relates to a filling composition comprising an aqueous phase comprising water, glycerin and sorbitol, and a fat phase, wherein the filling composition further comprises of a dairy powder, whey and starch. The invention also relates to a method for preparing such a filling composition. When used in a baked product, this filling composition has little or no oil leaking, little or no spread and low water activity. At the same time, the filling composition is creamy and flavorful.

Methods are provided to make clinoptilolite into a water-soluble hydrolyzed form suitable for various administration routes, including oral administration. Absorption of water-soluble hydrolyzed clinoptilolite fragments can aid in detoxification by binding heavy metals and environmental toxins, can reduce reactive oxygen species and inflammation related to heavy metals and other/environmental toxins, resulting in an increase in energy, and/or in an increase in one or more of focus, concentration, and memory. Water-soluble hydrolyzed clinoptilolite fragments can be combined with one or more dietary supplements, including various vitamins and sleep aids.
