A process for the preparation of a liquid or semi-liquid bioactive dairy composition containing 20-90% retained bioactive IgG, for use as an ingredient in a ready-to-eat (RTE) or ready-to-drink (RTD) food product, includes the steps of a) combining a bioactive powder containing a colostrum powder and/or milk powder containing whey proteins, and immunoglobulin G (IgG), wherein the ratio of whey protein: IgG in the bioactive powder is between 1.74:1 and 3.05:1; water and a food grade acid to form a bioactive dairy composition with a pH of 2.5-4.0, and b) heat treating the bioactive dairy composition to between 67-145° C. at ambient pressure.

Compositions comprising glycosylated small molecule weight steviol glycosides (G-SMW-SGs) and glycosylated small molecule weight steviol glycoside Maillard reaction products (G-SMW-SG-MRPs) are described. These compositions provide improved taste profiles and can be used as sweeteners or a flavorants in consumable products, including foods and beverages.

The present disclosure generally relates to the use of certain compounds, such as anthocyanins, saponins, or combinations thereof, at low concentrations to improve the aqueous solubility of flavonoid compounds. Thus, in certain aspects, the disclosure provides aqueous compositions including flavonoid compounds, such as naringenin or phloretin, and one or more compounds selected rom anthocyanin compounds, saponins, and combinations thereof. In related aspects, the disclosure provides methods and uses of certain compounds, such as anthocyanins, saponins, or combinations thereof, to enhance the aqueous solubility of flavonoid compounds. In related aspects, the disclosure provides methods to maintain the stability of a supersaturated aqueous solution of flavonoid compounds, for example, by increasing the kinetic stability of such supersaturated aqueous solutions. In some further embodiments of the foregoing aspects, the aqueous compositions are used to make flavored articles, such as beverage or dairy products, that contain concentration of surfactants, co-solvents, hydrotropes, or complexing agents below the typical taste-affecting thresholds in humans.
