The invention relates to a flavonoid delivery system comprising a co-precipitate of a hydrophobic flavonoid and a protein. The flavonoid delivery system comprises a high ratio of flavonoid to protein, allowing food products to be fortified with relatively large amounts of flavonoid without compromising the sensory properties of the food product.

The present invention provides a novel process for preparing fortified milk compositions from whole mammalian milk. The process of the present invention generally involves converting dried mammalian milk into a fats-enriched fraction, a protein-enriched fraction, and a carbohydrate-enriched fraction. The process comprises treating the dried milk with a fats extracting agent to provide a fats-enriched fraction, and a residual fraction comprising proteins and carbohydrates; separating said fats-enriched fraction from the residual fraction; and removing the fats extracting agent from the separated fats-enriched fraction to produce a dry fraction of oily, fats-enriched material and a fraction enriched in proteins and carbohydrates.

The present invention relates to low calorie and low carbohydrate nutritional milk compositions and milk products which are designed to include specific components of milk.

The present invention relates to a process for microparticulating of an ideal whey protein in a solution. The present invention relates also to microparticulated ideal whey protein preparation. In addition, the present invention relates to use of the microparticulated ideal whey protein preparation in milk based products and/or dairy products. Further, the present invention relates to a milk based product and/or a dairy product containing a microparticulated whey protein preparation.

Provided are food products comprising milk proteins and non-animal proteins, and methods of manufacturing the same.
