The present invention provides nutritional supplements comprising alginate, in combination with pectin, which will form hydrogels in the stomach when exposed to the low pH of the gastric juice. The formation of a hydrogel will lead to delayed release of sugars and other active ingredients in the stomach. The nutritional supplements can comprise high concentrations of sugars and complex carbohydrates without causing unwanted gastrointestinal symptoms.

The present invention provides a method for producing non-fried noodles having a reduced sodium content and excellent noodle making properties, texture, and flavor. Fresh noodles having excellent noodle making properties, texture, and flavor can be produced by adding 1 to 3% by weight of potassium lactate relative to a main raw material powder such as wheat flour even without adding salt. Further, non-fried noodles having a reduced sodium content and excellent texture and flavor can be produced by steaming the fresh noodles and then drying the noodles by hot air. Moreover, after drying, the non-fried noodles dried by hot air to have a moisture of 7 to 14% by weight is further subjected to a heating process with high-temperature hot air, a gas mixture of high-temperature hot air and water vapor, or superheated steam at 120 to 200° C. until the moisture of the non-fried noodles is reduced to 3 to 6% by weight, which can consequently reduce a harsh taste derived from potassium lactate.
