Described herein is as method of reducing fumonisin in a corn protein product, comprising adjusting the pH of the corn protein product to a range between about 5.75 and about 7.5 to reduce fumonisin by at least 70%. The method can further comprise the addition of a divalent cationic salt.

Disclosed is a non-toxic omega-3 rich extract and non-toxic miscella and a method of producing same. The method may include obtaining an aqueous microalgae slurry comprising at least 65% water; mixing the aqueous microalgae slurry with ethanol for a predetermined duration; separating the aqueous microalgae slurry-ethanol mixture to liquids and miscella; and evaporating the water and the ethanol from the liquid to receive a liquid extract. In some embodiments, the miscella contains organic material and ash at an amount below 15 dry weight %.

A pulse protein product, which may be an isolate, produces heat-stable solutions at low pH values and is useful for the fortification of acidic beverages such as soft drinks and sports drinks without precipitation of protein. The pulse protein product is obtained by extracting a pulse protein source material with an aqueous calcium salt solution to form an aqueous pulse protein solution, separating the aqueous pulse protein solution from residual pulse protein source, adjusting the pH of the aqueous pulse protein solution to a pH of about 1.5 to about 4.4 to produce an acidified pulse protein solution, which may be dried, following optional concentration and diafiltration, to provide the pulse protein product.

Disclosed are novel processing methods for green coffee beans that result in novel green coffee bean products, including products that incorporate whole green coffee beans which is combined with a whole hemp powder or CBD. Methods for processing green coffee beans include selecting whole coffee beans in their fresh green unroasted state with naturally-occurring levels of phytonutrients, sterilizing and drying them, applying iterative grinding processes and stabilization techniques, all while avoiding high temperatures. A similar method is used to prepare a whole hemp powder, which may then be combined with the whole green coffee bean powder.

Provided herein are methods for producing a mung bean protein isolate having high functionality for a broad range of food applications. In some embodiments, the methods for producing the isolate comprise one or more steps selected from: (a) extracting one or more mung bean proteins from a mung bean protein source in an aqueous solution, for example, at a pH between about 6.5-10.0; (b) purifying protein from the extract using at least one of two methods: (i) precipitating protein from the extract at a pH near the isoelectric point of a globulin-rich fraction, for example a pH between about 5.0-6.0; and/or (ii) fractionating and concentrating protein from the extract using filtration such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration or ion-exchange chromatography; and (c) recovering purified protein isolate.

This disclosure relates to methods and compositions with enhanced levels of one or more tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid amides. Also disclosed herein are methods for producing a consumable product with enhanced levels of a tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid amide. Some embodiments relate to a composition enriched with a tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an oil/lipid that contains dihomo-γ-linolenic acid at a higher purity. Provided is a microbial oil/lipid that is specified by a high content of dihomo-γ-linolenic acid contained therein and/or a reduced content of undesirable constituting fatty acid(s).

An aqueous solution of a pulse protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt % (N×6.25) d.b. which is soluble in aqueous media at a pH of less than about 4.4 and heat stable at that pH range is adjusted in pH to a pH of about 6 to about 8. The resulting product is further processed by drying the product, recovering and drying any precipitated pulse protein material, heat treating and then drying the product, or heat treating the product and recovering and drying any precipitated pulse protein material.
