Provided are compositions, methods, and solutions for generating aqueous glucomannan solutions with hydrogen compositions greater than 100 parts per billion. Said glucomannan solutions have application in nutritional, therapeutic, and energy fields.

This invention relates to consumable functional food comprising one or more cocoa bean products and a plant extract. The combination of a cocoa bean product and plant polyphenol have unexpected synergy leading to a significant health benefit. In addition, this invention describes unexpected synergy bioavailability and efficacy of polyphenol molecules of plant extracts, which they develop during fortification with them of consumable products where chocolate is a minor ingredient or not present at all.

A formulated oral prebiotic edible composition includes a free amino acid containing ingredient comprising L-arginine, the L-arginine comprising free individual molecules of L-arginine, the free individual molecules of L-arginine L present at a concentration of greater than about 0.1 weight percent, a carrier, and a sugar comprising at least one of a monosaccharide and disaccharide, at least two distinct live lactic acid probiotics, wherein one is a lactic acid producing bacterium, and one is a lactic acid fermenting bacterium, wherein the composition is in configuration suitable to be maintained substantively dissolved within the oral cavity, and wherein the composition is in an effective amount to selectively promote stimulation of a first oral microbiota to produce an excretion product, and wherein a second oral microbiota metabolizes the excretion product to treat the respiratory allergic condition and/or an oral and/or sinus infection.

Disclosed here are compositions comprising a cannabidiol (CBD), a flavanone and one or more additional compounds and uses thereof.
