A meat analogue may include a set protein emulsion, the protein emulsion having a protein and at least one insoluble particle. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the particle can include at least one mineral material selected from the group consisting of silicium, and calcium, such as one or more of rhombohedral calcite, scalenohedral calcite, silicon dioxide, and magnesium oxide; at least one organic material selected from the group consisting of a bone meal, a cartilage meal, a ground crustacean shell, a ground sea fish shell, and a ground egg shell; and/or a gelled vegetable gum, a gelled hydrocolloid, a polymerized vegetable gum, a polymerized hydrocolloid, or a mixture thereof. The meat analogue can be made by extruding the protein emulsion and cooling the extruded emulsion. The meat analogue can be cut into chunks and/or added to another comestible composition such as a gravy or broth.

The present invention relates to a method for enriching a food with isolated amino acid(s) and/or with peptide(s) and/or with protein(s) and/or with dietary supplement(s), comprising the following steps: Obtaining a food matrix permeable to liquids; Placing said matrix in contact with an impregnation solution composed of a liquid, comprising at least one isolated amino acid and/or peptide and/or protein and/or dietary supplement, to which has optionally been added at least one plant and/or spice and/or aroma; Impregnating said matrix with said isolated amino acid(s) and/or peptide(s) and/or protein(s) and/or dietary supplement(s), by applying an under-pressure comprised between 5 and 20 millibars to the matrix in its impregnation solution.

This document provides dietary supplement compositions. For example, multi-supplement compositions having combinations of dietary supplement formulations useful for human or animal consumption are provided.

This document provides dietary supplement compositions. For example, multi-supplement compositions having combinations of dietary supplement formulations useful for human or animal consumption are provided.

Provided are food products that are derived from non-animal sources that have one or more of the following: color, taste, nutritional content, and other qualities similar to those of dairy products and/or other types of food products. Also provided are processes for production of such dairy-like food products and/or other types of food product analogs.

The present invention relates to an amino acid mineral complex having immunopotentiating activity, and a composition for foods, pharmaceuticals, or feeds comprising the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a composition for foods (or a food additive), pharmaceuticals, or feeds (or a feed additive) which comprises the amino acid mineral complex as an active ingredient so that it is possible to enhance the immunity of a human or an animal other than a human or increase the antibody production rate of an anti-virus vaccine.

Snack bars incorporating more than 4 grams of prebiotic fiber derived from Chicory root fiber and methods of making such snack bars are described herein. The snack bars may incorporate chicory root fiber, coconut, dried fruits, with or without, nuts pieces, chocolate, seeds, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, herb, spices, and oils held together by a binder comprising chicory root fiber and may be enrobed with chicory root fiber as the outer coating. The methods may include mixing chicory root fiber into a binder made with honey and or syrup, mixing binder with a creamy crunchy chewy grain composition, add any additional ingredients, press into desired thickness, cut into bars, enrobe bars with treatments of chicory root fiber, and heat treatment processes to melt the chicory root fiber and form a uniform glossy surface that is appealing to the customer, and reducing water activity.
