A MIXTURE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHEWING GUMS

Abstract

A mixture for the chewing gum which includes a powder-mixture and of a core composed of normal substances for the manufacture of chewing gum (sorbitol, Arabic gum, aromatic substances) and from the addition of the two active substances of caffeine and taurine in a concentration of caffeine from 0.77% to 3.75% and of taurine from 7.7% to 39.6% by weight. The taste of this mixture is deprived of a significant bitterness by the addition of Galium odoratum (woodruff) in a concentration of from 0.3% to 7% by weight, alternatively, it may be replaced by or supplemented with green tea from 0.2% to 4% by weight, where these additives reduce the bitterness of the mixture. It is also possible to add the above substances directly into the core, where, however, the concentration of the content of those substances is lower.

Claims

1. A mixture for the production of chewing gums comprising: 0.77% to 3.75 by weight of caffeine; and 7.7% to 39.6% by weight of taurine: wherein the mixture is added to a core made of a standard chewing gum.

2.The mixture for the production of chewing gums according to the claim 1, wherein the mixture further contains gallium odoratum in a concentration of from 0.3% to 7% by weight and/or green tea from 0.2% to 4% by weight.
