The invention relates to a nicotine oral delivery product containing a powder enclosed in a water insoluble pouch, wherein said pouch is permeable for saliva and therein dissolved parts of the powder, wherein said powder comprising at least a) nicotine selected from the group consisting of tobacco, nicotine salts, nicotine base, stabilized nicotine, and mixtures thereof corresponding to 0.1 to 20 mg nicotine in the form of nicotine base and b) a chewing gum composition and a method of producing said nicotine oral delivery product.

The disclosure provides a composition configured for oral use. The composition includes a gum base, one or more bulking agents; an active ingredient having a basic amine functionality; and an organic acid, an alkali metal salt of an organic acid, or a combination thereof, wherein at least a portion the active ingredient having the basic amine functionality is associated with at least a portion of the organic acid or the alkali metal salt thereof, the association in the form of a basic amine-organic acid salt, an ion pair between the basic amine and a conjugate base of the organic acid, or both.

Provided are edible products infused with an emulsion containing one or more active agents.

An oral product configured for oral use is provided herein, the oral product including: at least one sugar substitute in an amount from about 25% to about 45% by weight, based on the total weight of the oral product; a gum in an amount from about 35% to about 55% by weight, based on the total weight of the oral product; a basic amine; and an organic acid, an alkali metal salt of an organic acid, or a combination thereof; wherein the organic acid has a log P value of from about 1.0 to about 12.0; wherein at least a portion of the basic amine is associated with at least a portion of the organic acid or the alkali metal salt thereof, the association in the form of a basic amine-organic acid salt, an ion pair between the basic amine and a conjugate base of the organic acid, or both; and wherein the oral product is in the form of a pastille.

Compositions comprising satiety peptides (e.g., PYY, PYY(3-36), GLP-1, oxyntomodulin, and cholecystokinin) and DPP-IV inhibitors and methods of treating metabolic diseases with such compositions are provided.

The present invention relates to a tableted chewing gum composition for oral administration of cannabinoids, the composition comprising water-soluble chewing gum ingredients and water-insoluble gum base located in a plurality of particles, wherein the chewing gum composition comprises one or more cannabinoids, and wherein the chewing gum composition generates saliva and delivers more than 20% by weight of the one or more cannabinoids to the oral mucosa during the first 5 minutes of chewing.

Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment or prevention of diseases and conditions associated with or characterized by at least one of xerostomia and periodontal disease by modulation of the nitric oxide synthase pathway are provided, as are animal models and drug screening methods. Such modulation may be achieved by the administration of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH.sub.4) or its prodrugs and/or salts. Treating and preventing xerostomia can have the downstream effect of also preventing periodontitis, dental caries, parotid gland enlargement, inflammation and fissuring of the lips (chelitis), inflammation or ulcers of the tongue and buccal mucosa, oral candidiasis, salivary gland infection (sialadenitis), halitosis, and cracking and fissuring of oral mucosa.

A pharmaceutical composition that is orally applied and that counteracts reproduction and the spread of influenza viruses, in particular influenza viruses of the so-called covid species and their mutations, comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and at least a first virucidal component designed to unfold antiviral activity when activated, which first virucidal component is sodium chlorite that is dissolved in saliva when the pharmaceutical composition has been applied to a person.

Provided are edible products infused with an emulsion containing one or more active agents.

The present invention discloses a system and method for increasing the lifespan and quality of life of human beings and other mammals. This discloses methods for preparing and delivering various health and longevity compositions. The compositions of the present invention are selected and designed for the purpose of efficiently delivering health and longevity enhancing therapies through oral supplementation, misting, nasal spray, suppository, etc. An existing compound known to have capacity for life extending potential, rapamycin, is combined with a non-toxic therapeutic anabolic hormone, e.g., DHEA, and cannabidiol (CBD) to enable absorption and effect. These three compounds work together to dramatically improve both the quality of life in aging humans and other mammals as well as extending the life of humans potentially up to 120 healthy years. One preferred embodiment provides a method for continuous low dose supplementation, e.g., incorporated in or with a daily meal. This invention not only resolves the issue of anti-aging of higher life forms, without toxicity, but provides for an improved method for absorption.
