Provided is a composition for prevention or treatment of an allergic disease, the composition including an inotodiol compound and a chaga mushroom (Inonotus obliquus) extract including an inotodiol compound as an active ingredient. More particularly, it was found that when an inotodiol compound or a chaga mushroom extract containing an inotodiol compound as one of the active ingredients is administered to a mouse model in which a food allergy was induced, symptoms induced by the allergy were alleviated and cured. Thus, the inotodiol compound or the chaga mushroom extract containing an inotodiol compound as an active ingredient is expected to be useful as a composition for prevention or treatment of an allergic disease.

Water-based release coatings are disclosed. The water-based release coatings include a homogenous blend of water, a surfactant comprising saponin glycosides, and lecithin. The mixture of saponin glycosides are preferably derived from the Quillaja plant. The release coatings can be used for reducing or preventing build-up on a cooking surface.

The present invention provides a method of making a dough or batter and grain product, the method including the making of a dough or batter and including the step of soaking one or more whole grains in a dye of colour and or multiple collections of grains in respective dyes of different colours, until the whole grains absorb the dye or respective ones of the dyes. Also provided is a dough or batter and grain product and a cooked product, being either baked, fried or boiled.

Provided herein is a composition that includes choline or choline salt and omega-3 fatty acid for nutritionally enhancing a food product, as well as the resultant food products. The food product when nutritionally enhanced with the composition has an acceptable taste or acceptable odor or the food product has a peroxide value of less than 50 mEq. Methods of preparing the composition and food products are also are provided. As seen in the accompanying figure the discoveries outlined herein have resulted in an unprecedented level of organoleptic stability over time, with no significant change to key sensory parameters typically seen in products that contain high levels of choline and omega-3 fatty acids.
