The present invention relates to a composition including an anthocyanin-fucoidan complex formed by ionic bond between anthocyanin and fucoidan as an active ingredient, and more particularly, it is confirmed that the anthocyanin-fucoidan complex in which anion of the fucoidan, which is a natural extract having high biocompatibility and biodegradability, is ionically bonded with a cation of the anthocyanin improves the stability and the solubility of the anthocyanin even in acidic conditions in vivo, thereby increasing the immune activity in vivo and therefore it is intended to provide the anthocyanin-fucoidan complex as an immune enhancer, an immune-cancer agent and an anticancer adjuvant composition for alleviating side effects of anti-cancer agents.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fermented milk and polysaccharide capable of inhibiting cancerous cachexia. A fermented milk with cancerous cachexia inhibitory effect according to one aspect of the present invention contains Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus as an active ingredient. Also, polysaccharide with cancerous cachexia inhibitory effect according to another aspect of the present invention are produced from the Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus. It is preferable that the Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus is Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus OLL1073R-1 (accession number: FERM BP-10741).

The invention relates to a method for the provision of degutted insects, such as black soldier fly larvae and mealworm, preferably live degutted insects. The invention also relates to degutted (live or dead) insects such as larvae and to processed degutted insects such as larvae. The invention also relates to the use of the degutted insect according to the invention or use of the processed degutted insect of the invention for the separation of the degutted insect or of the processed degutted insect in at least a fat fraction and/or at least a protein fraction. In addition, the invention relates to an insect product, wherein the insect product is any one of live or dead insect, insect puree, minced insect, insect powder, particulate insect, granulated insect, or insect meal, dried insect, oven-dried insect, lyophilized insect, or oven-dried insect using refractive drying obtained from degutted insect provided with the method of the invention. The invention also relates to an insect product, wherein the insect product is insect gut content, wherein the gut content is provided with the method of the invention. Finally, the invention relates to the method, the degutted insect provided with the method, the degutted insect, insects products, insect gut content according to the invention, wherein the insect is black soldier fly, preferably black soldier fly larvae, or wherein the insect is mealworm.

The present invention relates to the field of nutraceuticals, and in particular to nutraceuticals comprising sulfated polysaccharides, Astragalus polysaccharides, resveratrol, and combinations thereof. These compositions find use in inducing physiological responses such, decreasing body fat, increasing lean body mass, alleviating the symptoms of colds, preventing the onset of colds, increasing energy, increasing the feeling of well-being in subjects, and improving skin tone and appearance.
