A plastic material for extended release of a bio-active agent, the plastic material comprising a structural polymer, at least one bio-active ingredient embedded within the structural polymer as solid islands, a liquid binding material embedded within the structural polymer as granules, and a carrier liquid absorbed within the liquid-absorbent material. The carrier liquid may be sufficiently non-compatible with the structural polymer so that at least a portion of the carrier liquid is released from the liquid-absorbent material through the structural polymer to an outer surface of the plastic material over a period of time, such as a week or more, a month or more, or about three months. The bio-active agent comprised in the at least one bio-active ingredient may be sufficiently soluble in the carrier liquid at room or body temperature so that the carrier liquid released to the outer surface comprises the bio-active agent in solution.

The invention discloses taste masking formulations for bitter natural compounds, selected from the extracts, fraction and pure phytochemicals produced in combination with a synthetic polymer or a natural polymer. The invention also relates to the novel process of producing the taste masking formulations. The invention also relates to taste masking formulations of Bacopa extracts with no bitter taste or negligible bitter taste in combination with synthetic polymers such as Eudragit or natural polymers such as Shellac.

The present invention provides a method and a dietary composition for prevention and regulation of obesity capable of obtaining efficacy such as required appetite suppression or inducing satiety by having a positive effect on concentrations of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine which are the principle of a mechanism of appetite inhibitory drugs without prescription of medicines (Phentermine, Prozac, etc.) and further being used as an alternative diet and supplying a protein that is the most lack ingredient during diet. The dietary composition includes tryptophan, which is one amino acid, tyrosine, which is the other amino acid, Saint john's wort, which is one of herbs, and a whey protein as active ingredients.
