The present invention relates to an edible product, which comprises a fibrous plant product and a plant extract applied thereto. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding method for producing said edible product and its use in at least one of food, food supplement, medicinal, cosmetic, well-being, nutraceutical or phytotherapeutical applications. The plants used may be all plants comprising one or more substances of interest for an edible product.

The present invention relates to a product for at least one of medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic use. The product comprises a fibrous plant product and a plant extract which is applied thereto. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding method for producing said product and its use in at least one of medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic products or applications or treatments. The plants used may be all plants comprising one or more substances of interest to achieve a desired medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic effect.

A purine base adsorption material contains a 2:1 type layered clay mineral of [(E1m+a/mE2+b)(M1cM2d)(Si4-eAle)O10(OHfF2-f)] and/or its derivative, wherein m is a natural number of 2 to 4; parameters a, b, c, d, e, f satisfy inequalities: 0.2a+b<0.75, a0, 0b, 0c3, 0d2, 2c+d3, 0e<4, and 0f2; E1 is an element of Mg, Al, Si, Sc, Ca, Cr, Sr, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Zr or Ba, and turning into a polyvalent cation between layers; E2 is an element of Na, Li or K, and turning into a monovalent cation between layers; M1 is an element of Mg, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn or Li; M2 is an element of Al, Fe, Mn or Cr; and the M1 and M2 form an octahedral sheet.

Disclosed is a water based method for extracting caffeine from alkaloid containing substances, in particular tea leaves. The method can be performed without the use of artificial substances. The method allows the other soluble, non-caffeine components of alkaloid containing substances to be part of the decaffeinated product, in particular, components such as catechins and antioxidants. Advantageously, the caffeine extracted from the alkaloid containing substances is reversibly adsorbed to an adsorbent and high percentile of the caffeine can be recovered from the adsorbent.
