Compositions and methods for improving nitric oxide levels in a subject, comprising administering to a subject, a composition comprising dietary nitrate derived from potassium nitrate, beet root (whole plant, powder, plant extract), and/or nitrate-rich leafy green portions (whole plant, powder, plant extract) that improve functional nitric oxide levels in subjects as shown by increasing salivary bioconversion of nitrate to nitrite, a necessary a required step for nitric oxide mediated health benefits. The disclosed novel compositions improve cardiac health, lowers blood pressure, intraocular pressure, and LDL and restores nitric oxide mediated cardiovascular benefits, including but not limited, restoring endothelium function and improving flow mediated dilation.

The present invention provides a sugar-restricted, high-fat diet for improving liver disease. In the sugar-restricted, high-fat diet, daily fat intake may be set at 120 g or more based on a real body weight of 50 kg or set at an amount corresponding to 70% or more of the total daily energy intake. The sugar-restricted, high-fat diet can reduce body fat mass and AST, ALT, and γ-GTP levels in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients.

The invention described herein provides new combination products for the cyclical provision of a methylcobalamin compound and a steroid compound in a dosing regimen wherein the total amount of methylcobalamin administered during any one treatment cycle does not exceed 35 mcg. More specifically, the combination products described in this disclosure promote the prevention or treatment of a vitamin B12 deficiency, support the replenishment and or maintenance of healthy blood cell levels, or both, particularly in those experiencing a periodic physiological challenge which may compromise vitamin B12 status or result in an increased requirement for vitamin B12, such as the monthly blood loss experienced by a reproductively cycling human female.

This invention provides a composition comprising at least three agents selected from the group consisting of alpha-ketoglutarate, malate, pterostilbene, micro-dosed lithium, glycine, ginger, Rhodiola rosea, acetyl glucosamine, vitamin C, glucosamine, fisetin, L-theanine, oxaloacetate, fumarate, succinate, hyaluronic acid, butyrate, anthocyanins, piperlongumine, quercetin, curcuminoids, caffeine, trehalose, and spermidine. This invention also provides related pharmaceutical compositions, methods for ameliorating hallmarks of aging, and articles of manufacture.

A synthetic nutritional composition comprising a mineral for use to promote, support or optimise de novo myelination, in particular the de novo myelination trajectory, and/or brain structure, and/or brain connectivity, and/or intellectual potential and/or cognitive potential and/or learning potential and/or cognitive functioning in a subject, in particular a formula fed subject.

The present disclosure discloses a milk powder containing maltopentaose trehalose instead of maltodextrin and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of processing of dairy products. In the present disclosure, a formula milk powder containing maltopentaose trehalose instead of maltodextrin includes the following raw materials in parts by mass: 85-90 parts of fresh milk, 1-2 parts of maltopentaose trehalose, 5-10 parts of vegetable oil, 1-2 parts of a desalted whey powder, 1.5-3 parts of a concentrated whey protein powder, 0.5-0.8 parts of lactose, 0.05-0.1 parts of a multivitamin, and 0.05-0.1 parts of a complex mineral. Differences in physical and chemical properties of products due to a nonuniform polymerization degree of maltodextrin are reduced, and the problem that a Maillard reaction is likely to be induced when the maltodextrin is mixed with an amino acid or protein is solved.
