A method for preparing a water-soluble curcumin mixture with high bioavailability includes the following steps: A) dissolving curcumin, vitamin C and ascorbyl palmitate in an ethanol aqueous solution, evaporating ethanol under reduced pressure, and vacuum drying to obtain a curcumin-vitamin C-ascorbyl palmitate co-crystal; B) high-speed emulsifying the curcumin-vitamin C-ascorbyl palmitate co-crystal and a wall material colloidal solution under vacuum, sequentially conducting a two-stage wet grinding, a homogenization and a potential adjustment to obtain an emulsified body; and C) subjecting the emulsified body to microencapsulation with a wall material twice and drying to obtain the water-soluble curcumin.

A method for preparing a water-soluble curcumin liquid includes the following steps: A) dissolving curcumin, vitamin C and ascorbyl palmitate in an ethanol aqueous solution, evaporating ethanol under reduced pressure, and vacuum drying to obtain a curcumin-vitamin C-ascorbyl palmitate co-crystal; and B) high-speed emulsifying the curcumin-vitamin C-ascorbyl palmitate co-crystal and a water-soluble colloidal solution that includes an emulsifying additive under vacuum, sequentially conducting a two-stage wet grinding, a homogenization and a potential adjustment to obtain the water-soluble curcumin liquid.

The present invention discloses a sunflower seed composition rich in pleasant prohormone and anti-depression application thereof, and belongs to the field of extraction and application of natural products. Sunflower seeds used in the composition provided by the present invention are rich in tryptophan and have a high tryptophan/neutral amino acid ratio. After defatting treatment and chlorogenic acid removal treatment, and added part can increase a glycemic index. Glucose and vitamins for promoting absorption conversion of tryptophan and ω-3 fatty acids beneficial to nervous activities enable the sunflower seeds to have a better anti-depression effect. The sunflower seed composition of the present invention can improve concentrations of a monoamine neurotransmitter (serotonin) and dopamine in the brain and has a very good effect of ameliorating and treating depression. This composition uses natural sunflower seeds as raw material and is remarkable in anti-depression effect, rich in source and free of side effects.

A dietary supplement and method for synthesis of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the method, an NADH component is provided that includes at least partially microencapsulated nicotinamide having nicotinamide blended with water. A supplement component, such as collagen, coenzyme Q10, vitamins, and minerals, is provided. A mixed component, which is a liquid, is formed by mixing the NADH component with the supplement component at ambient conditions. The mixed component is subjected to a fill production process.

A dietary supplement and method for synthesis of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the method, an NADH component is provided which includes NADH from about 0.1% to about 0.5% blended with water from about 40% to about 84% both by weight of the dietary supplement. A supplement component from about 9% to about 99% by weight of the dietary supplement is also provided. The supplement component may include collagen in about 2% to about 10%, vitamins in about 0.00001% to about 3%, and minerals in about 0.000002% to about 0.5% all by weight of the dietary supplement. A mixed component is formed by mixing the NADH component with the supplement component at ambient conditions. The mixed component is a liquid at ambient conditions having a pH of less than 4.0. The mixed component is subjected to a cold fill production process.
