Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compositions comprising rice bran extract, method of making rice bran extract and method of using same.

A label friendly starch composition, and method of making, includes a thermally inhibited (TI) corn starch and a waxy starch in an amount up to about 50 weight percent of the starch composition. In an example, the waxy starch can be waxy rice and the amount can be between about 15 and about 50 weight percent of the starch composition. In an example, the waxy starch can be waxy corn and the amount can be between about 15 and about 25 weight percent of the starch composition. The starch compositions disclosed herein can be suitable for use in a variety of food products, including, but not limited to, soups and sauces. The food products containing the starch compositions disclosed herein exhibit favorable viscosity, refrigeration stability and resistance to breakdown from a freeze/thaw cycle.

A powdered, water-soluble Full Spectrum Hemp Oil is formed using organic materials and natural products to form a non-GMO, fast acting, whole plant hemp extract without harsh chemicals such as hexane. The Full Spectrum Hemp Oil may be extracted using CO2 concurrent gas extraction to avoid use of chemical additives.

An apparatus and a method for soaking foodstuff in a liquid under set acid pH conditions of the liquid is described. The foodstuff is soaked in the liquid so as to reduce a content of phytic acid and/or phytate contained in the foodstuff. The apparatus has a vessel for receiving the foodstuff and the liquid for soaking the foodstuff within the vessel. The apparatus further has an amount determining system which is configured to determine an amount of the liquid and/or an amount of the foodstuff to be used for the soaking within the vessel. Further, the apparatus has a pH adjusting system configured to perform an electrolysis of at least a portion of the liquid for adjusting a pH level of the liquid.

This document provides dried products made from fruit including a press cake of constituents of at least one fruit variety, wherein a ratio of a mass of water-soluble saccharides to a mass of soluble and insoluble fiber in the press cake is less than 90% of said ratio in a raw material of the at least one fruit variety; the water content of the dried product is less than 10% by mass; methods for producing dried products made from fruit are also provided.

The present disclosure discloses a method for reducing the fructan content in food made of rice and flour using microwave heating and belongs to the technical field of food processing. Fermented products made of rice and flour are prepared using microwave heating and fructan in the products can be effectively degraded. Compared with traditional steaming, the method can remarkably reduce the fructan content in the fermented food, effectively alleviate the bowel stress sensitivity to the fermented rice and flour food by patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), meet the daily dietary requirements of special crowds, has the advantages of simple process, green processing and environmental protection, and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compositions having rice bran extract, method of making rice bran extract and method of using same.
