Daily food preparation for use as a therapeutic adjuvant in the diet of patients suffering from neoplasia, including A) a nutritional combination that contains carbohydrates in an amount between 8% and 55% (w/w), proteins in an amount between 7% and 16% (w/w), lipids in an amount between 30% and 81% (w/w); and B) dietary fiber in an amount between 2 and 30 g, the food preparation being characterized by an average caloric content between 15 and 600 Kcal, in which the nutritional combination (A) and the dietary fiber (B) consist of foods of vegetable origin. A further object of the present invention is a kit comprising daily food preparations in accordance with claim 1 for use as a therapeutic adjuvant in the daily diet of patients suffering from neoplasias.

The present invention relates to a foamable composition comprising 0.05 to 10 wt % of a plant germ flour, 0.1 to 15 wt % of a thickening agent, 0.1 to 35 wt % of a natural fiber, and water, wherein each wt % is based on the total weight of the composition. The invention further relates to: (a) a foam obtainable from said foamable composition; (b) a method for producing said foamable composition comprising mixing the ingredients with water; (c) the use of said foamable composition or said foam in a food product; and (d) a food product comprising said foamable composition or said foam.

Compositions that can be used in foodstuff, cosmetic, or nutraceutical products, and consumer products comprising such compositions are provided. The compositions may comprise at least one or more oligosaccharides and one or more components. The compositions may comprise a sweet taste and may be suitable to be used as sweeteners, binders, and/or fiber content enhancers in finished products such as consumable products. The compositions may provide a favorable sweet taste, a desirable texture, or other desirable characteristics.

The present invention relates to an oligo-saccharide oat liquid composition, an oligo-saccharide oat powder composition and an oligo-saccharide oat drink having improved properties and immunomodulatory efficacy (for example, promotion of proliferation of immune cells), a micro-milling process involving quadri-enzyme hydrolysis for preparing the same, and uses thereof.

The present invention relates to compositions comprising probiotic and prebiotic components, mineral salts, lactoferrin, and possibly saccharomycetes, which perform correct, effective colonisation of the probiotic components administered, with enteric consequences which involve maintaining and/or restoring intestinal health and preventing the consequences of common dysbioses of the digestive tract caused by stress, incorrect dietary habits and antibiotic treatments. Said compositions also have a concomitant anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating action.

The present invention concerns an edible ingredient providing a short chain fatty acid ratio in the gut such that acetate is n a ratio ranging from 70 to 80, propionate is in a ratio ranging from 2 to 8, butyrate is in a ratio ranging from 20 to 25 and wherein the sum of individual ratios for acetate, propionate and butyrate equals 100 to food compositions comprising such edible ingredient for use in the attenuation of stress response and/or prevention of chronic stress and of conditions thereby associated.

The disclosure relates generally to bacterial strains of the genus Butyricimonas, e.g., Butyricimonas faecihominis bacterial strains, and compositions, e.g., pharmaceutical compositions, comprising such strains. The disclosure further relates to methods of using such strains and compositions for preventing or treating a disorder, e.g., a cancer, when administered to a subject in need thereof.
