Embodiment 2

[0102] A reconstitutable powder containing soy protein, citric acid, calcium and magnesium was produced starting with the premix described in Table 3:

[0107] The pectin base was stirred at 80 °C for 20 min under high shear. Thereafter, it was cooled to below 40°C. The soy base was homogenized at 150 bar. Thereafter, the soy base was slowly added to the pectin base while stirring. After all of the soy base had been added, the resulting mixture was stirred under high shear for 30 min.

[0108] In parallel, the following method was used to prepare the mineral base: citric acid was added to all water at a temperature of 10°C. Magnesium carbonate was added with gentle stirring. After about half an hour, the formation of carbon dioxide ceased and th...

Next, the dry blend of sugar and sucralose is dispersed into this aqueous solution with the help of a turrax mixer. Next, add the fruit concentrate and citric acid. The final pH of the beverage was 4.1.

[0117] Subsequently, the product was pasteurized using an indirect heating system at 72° C. for 40 seconds (laminar flow). The pasteurized product was homogenized using a s...

Abstract

One aspect of the invention relates to a method for producing an edible aqueous liquid composition that has been supplemented with a first mineral selected from the group of metals consisting of calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, copper, iron, manganese and a second mineral, different from the first mineral, that is selected from the same group of metals. Another aspect of the present inventionsrelates to a reconstitutable powder containing: 0.01-3 mmole of the first mineral per gram of powder; 0.02-4 mmole of the second mineral per gram of powder; 0.02-8 mmole of acid per gram of powder, said acid being selected from the group consisting of citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, phosphoric acid and combinations thereof; 0.02-0.99 g of soy protein per gram of powder; and less than 10 wt. % of water. The reconstitutable powder is characterised in that 25 grams of the powder can be reconstituted with 1 kg of water to yield an edible aqueous liquid that will not form a salt sediment of the first and / or second mineral when stored under ambient, quiescent conditions for 3 months or longer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of supplementing an edible aqueous liquid composition with two or more mineral salts comprising a first mineral and a second mineral, the first mineral being selected from the group consisting of calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, The metal group consisting of copper, iron and manganese, the second mineral is selected from the same metal group as the first mineral, but is different from the first mineral. Background technique [0002] From a nutritional standpoint, it is desirable to incorporate minerals into foods and beverages, or to provide nutritional supplements containing high levels of minerals. Examples of minerals of significant nutritional value include calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, copper, iron, manganese. In order to ensure that these minerals are sufficiently bioavailable, it is generally preferred to include these minerals in the form of bioavailable salts. [0003] It has been found th...
