Isoflavone-supplemented milk replacers fed to young animals during a pre-weaning provides isoflavones in the milk replacer at a level of about 700 mg per kilogram of the milk replacer, and/or provides about 450 mg of the supplemental isoflavone in at least about 1.5 pounds of the milk replacer by dry weight such that the animal ingests this amount of the isoflavone per day, and/or provides in the milk replacer at least about 50 mg of isoflavone per pound of the animal's birth weight is ingested per day. In response to ingesting the isoflavone-supplemented milk replacer, the young animal experiences improved performance.

Methods of preventing creaming and age gelation in heat treated dairy based products are provided herein. Heat treated dairy based products are also provided, in which physical instability is prevented.

The present disclosure relates to the isolation, preservation, compositions and uses of extracts from a newly discovered species of Justicia plants. The present disclosure also relates to compositions comprising the extracts of the new species of Justicia plant, as well as methods of producing and using such compositions for treating blood disorders and/or for other health, food and industrial uses.

An alternative milk composition of spirulina digestible, bioavailable proteins, vitamins and minerals is described. The proteins, vitamins and minerals present in spirulina biomass are rendered digestible and bioavailable by unique homogenization process followed by thermo-chemical treatment. The alternative milk made with digestible, bioavailable proteins, vitamins and minerals is formulated with colorant, sweetener, flavor and gelling agent. The milk so obtained is packed with digestible and bioavailable proteins, vitamins and minerals is free from fishy odor and bitter taste.

The use of a polysaccharide in a method for improving the flora of the colon of nursing infants and/or infants, thus treating or preventing colic and enterocolitis and therefore improving and/or generally stimulating the intestinal well-being of nursing infants and/or infants. A food composition for feeding nursing infants and/or infants, including at least one polysaccharide for treating or preventing colic and enterocolitis and improving and/or stimulating the intestinal well-being of nursing infants and/or infants. The polysaccharide used is a branched maltodextrin, preferably with a molecular mass of between 400 and 4500.

The present invention relates to a liquid creamer composition comprising unsaturated high oleic oils in an amount from 65 to 95% by weight of the total fat in the creamer composition, oil soluble antioxidants and water soluble or dispersible natural plant extract antioxidants. The invention also relates to a beverage composition comprising the liquid creamer composition, and a method of making it.

Described herein are novel compositions comprising a cannabis component selected from the group consisting of: a cannabinoid, a flavonoid and a terpenoid; and a protein, selected from the group consisting of whey and a plant protein. According to an embodiment, the cannabis component is non-covalently bound to the whey or to the plant protein. The plant protein may be selected from the group consisting of: soy protein, pea protein, rice protein, hemp protein, and hops protein or other plant derived protein.

Disclosed herein are compositions for treating anxiety and related disorders. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise dihydrohonokiol-B (“DHH-B”) and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the DHH-B is present in an amount ranging from between about 0.5% to about 25% by total weight of the composition. In other embodiments, the compositions comprise dihydrohonokiol-B (“DHH-B”) and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the DHH-B is present in an amount ranging from between about 0.000001% to about 5% by total weight of the composition.

The disclosure relates generally to dairy compositions comprising lactose hydrolysis products such as preferably glucose and galactose optionally further in combination with unhydrolysed lactose, and glucosylated natural steviol glycosides. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to the used of glucosylated natural steviol glycosides to enhance the sweetness of a dairy product composition, wherein the dairy composition comprises lactose hydrolysis products. Also disclosed is a method of modifying the flavor of a dairy composition treated with lactase by introducing a glucosylated natural steviol glycoside.

The invention relates to a flavonoid delivery system comprising a co-precipitate of a hydrophobic flavonoid and a protein. The flavonoid delivery system comprises a high ratio of flavonoid to protein, allowing food products to be fortified with relatively large amounts of flavonoid without compromising the sensory properties of the food product.
