The present invention provides a composition exhibiting delayed transit through the gastrointestinal tract comprising one or more active agents, fenugreek fiber and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The present invention further relates to gastroretentive dosage forms comprising fenugreek fibers.

The present disclosure relates to a lipid source for nutritional compositions, comprising an enriched lipid fraction which comprises structured fat globules. The enriched lipid fraction provides fat globules having a desired size and fatty acid composition and may be stabilized by components such as phospholipids, cholesterol, milk-fat globule membrane protein and combinations thereof. Additionally, the disclosure relates to methods of supporting lipid digestion in a pediatric subject by providing a nutritional composition comprising an enriched lipid fraction having structured fat globules that are more accessible to lipases. The chemical composition, size and structure of the fat globules may improve digestion. The disclosed nutritional compositions may provide additive and or/synergistic beneficial health effects.

The invention provides compositions for producing hydrogen rich water, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other products. In one embodiment, the invention provides a composition, e.g., a tablet, including magnesium metal, at least one water-soluble acid, and a binding agent. The magnesium metal and at least one water-soluble acid may be present in amounts sufficient to maintain a pH of less than 7, e.g., at a specific time period after reaction, and a concentration of at least 0.5 mM H.sub.2 after reaction in 50 mL water in a container e.g., a sealed or an open container, e.g., at least 0.5 mM H.sub.2 after reaction in 100 mL water or at least 0.5 mM H.sub.2 after reaction in 500 mL water. The composition may also include a lubricant.
