The present invention provides nutritional supplements comprising alginate, in combination with pectin, which will form hydrogels in the stomach when exposed to the low pH of the gastric juice. The formation of a hydrogel will lead to delayed release of sugars and other active ingredients in the stomach. The nutritional supplements can comprise high concentrations of sugars and complex carbohydrates without causing unwanted gastrointestinal symptoms.

In a method of assessing a plurality of water recipes and selecting a water recipe suitable for a user, wherein the water recipe determines the concentration of ions in the water the following steps are performed: determining a plurality of water drinking purposes; assigning a set taste weighting to each of the plurality of water drinking purposes, wherein the set taste weighting indicates the weighting of the taste for selection the most suited water recipe; assigning a set mineralization weighting to each of the plurality of water drinking purposes, wherein the set mineralization weighting indicates the weighting of the mineralization for selection the most suited water recipe; and storing the set taste weighting and the set mineralization weighting for each of the plurality of water drinking purposes in a computer.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods that utilize dietary electrolyte salts to improve the flavor of high-potency sweeteners and to enhance the synergistic effects between high-potency sweeteners and carbohydrate sweeteners. Specific dosage levels of dietary potassium and sodium have been discovered that correct the flavor deficits of existing high-potency sweeteners related to off-flavor, after-taste, thin mouth-feel, and loss of sweetness at high doses. In addition, these dosage levels of dietary electrolytes amplify the synergy between high-potency sweeteners and trace quantities of carbohydrate sweeteners. Consequently, electrolyte-enhanced sweetener compositions elicit sweetness, flavor, and mouth-feel profiles nearly indistinguishable from pure sugar. These compositions possess negligible calories and are compatible with a wide range of foods, beverages, serving, and preparation conditions and with food labels related to natural, organic, GMO free, allergen free, and gluten free.
