The present invention aims at providing packed beverages in which the effect of rosmarinic acid for suppressing the fading of dyes is maintained and yet any undesirable flavor that is characteristic of rosemary extracts as exemplified by their undesirable smell or aftertaste is suppressed. To this end, the contents of cineole and camphor are reduced.

The present invention discloses oral compositions for nourishment of a mammalian subject which comprises steviol glycoside, citric acid monohydrate, monosodium glutamate and/or glycine. These compositions, being highly palatable, increase consumption of said composition, further configured to decrease mortality rate, increase weight gain, reduced use of either antibiotics or milk replacers and improve small intestine anatomy of said mammalian.
