An anti-caking or flow agent is provided herein. The anti-caking or flow agent may include a bamboo extract that may include silica and carbohydrate. The bamboo extract may have a loose density (g/ml) of from about 0.14 g/ml to about 0.18 g/ml or a tapped density (g/ml) of from about 0.18 g/ml to about 0.22 g/ml. The bamboo extract may also include particles of the silica and the carbohydrate, wherein the particles have a size (Dv50) of from about 35 μm to about 55 μm. This anti-caking or flow agent may facilitate the manufacture, packaging, or storage of dry powdered food ingredients and food products such as spices, flavorings, and powdered food mixes as well as pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals.

A liquid dietary fiber product includes dietary fiber in an aqueous liquid at a concentration of at least 5 g of the dietary fiber per 60 mL of the aqueous liquid. The dietary fiber is from at least three dietary fiber sources. A process of forming a single-serve liquid dietary fiber product includes combining dietary fiber with an aqueous liquid at a concentration of at least 5 g of the dietary fiber per 60 mL of the aqueous liquid to form a liquid dietary fiber product. The dietary fiber is from at least three dietary fiber sources. The process also includes sterilizing the liquid dietary fiber product and containing the liquid dietary fiber product in a single-serve packet to form the single-serve liquid dietary fiber product.

Disclosed are a polysaccharide-peptide composite and a method of preparing the same. The polysaccharide-peptide composite is prepared from a bitter melon peptide (BMP) powder, gardenia fruit oil, a soybean polypeptide powder, an oat dietary fiber powder, a konjac powder, a corn silk, a mulberry leaf extract, a Poria cocos extract, a hawthorn extract, nutritional yeast and a pancreatin. The BMP powder is prepared by temperature-controlled hydrolysis, staged enzymatic hydrolysis and multiple filtrations. The gardenia fruit oil is prepared by staged enzymatic hydrolysis, multi-step centrifugation, filtration and stratification.

The present disclosure provides processes for the production of protein and fibre compositions from brewer's spent grain. The process comprises micronising dried brewer's spent grain using a pin mill and fractionating the micronised brewer's spent grain using an air classifier. The present disclosure also provides protein and fibre compositions, processes for producing food products incorporating the protein or fibre compositions, and food products comprising the protein or fibre compositions.

Plant-based nutritional compositions comprise fava bean protein isolate and pea protein. The fava bean protein isolate comprises greater than about 10 wt % of the total protein in the composition, and the pea protein comprises less than about 50 wt % of the total protein in the composition. In certain embodiments, the nutritional compositions are high in protein, high in fiber, and low in calories. The compositions may be dairy-free and/or soy-free.
