Selenium-rich chewing gum

Abstract

The invention relates to a selenium-rich chewing gum. The selenium-rich chewing gum is characterized in that Kappa-selenocarrageenan is added into a chewing gum matrix to supplement 50-200mu g of organic selenium for normal people through chewing every day. According to the selenium-rich chewing gum provided by the invention, the chewing gum is taken as a carrier for supplementing selenium, the concept is novel, the mode of usually taking selenium-containing tablets and capsules by people is broken through, the selenium-rich chewing gum is very convenient to take and carry, Kappa-selenocarrageenan is added into the chewing gum matrix to prepare the selenium-rich chewing gum, Kappa-selenocarrageenan is slowly dissolved in saliva of the people and absorbed during the process that people chew the chewing gum and then, the selenium supplement for people is simple, convenient and direct; furthermore, the price is low and the selenium-rich chewing gum is easily accepted by the people.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a chewing gum, in particular to a selenium-enriched chewing gum which can supplement human body trace element selenium. Background technique [0002] The trace element selenium (Se) was discovered by Swedish chemists in 1817; in 1957, German scientists first discovered that selenium can protect the liver and prevent liver necrosis. In 1973, the World Health Organization confirmed that selenium is an essential trace element for human and animal life activities. It is recommended that the human body be supplemented with 50-200 μg of selenium per day, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of various diseases. [0003] In 1980, Chinese scientists measured the selenium content of soil samples from 1094 counties and cities in my country (accounting for about half of the country), and the results showed that China is a selenium-deficient country. Only 1 / 3 of the counties have reached the normal value of 0.1 mg / kg announced by ...

Problems solved by technology

At present, there are many ways for people to supplement selenium. However, some methods are difficult to receive good results due to the limitation of eating habits, safety, economic affordability and singleness.

For example, although the selenium-enriched tea produced in high-selenium areas has a high selenium content, because the selenium is mainly distributed in the tea dregs, the selenium content dissolved in drinking tea water is very small, and it is not suitable for people to swallow together with the tea dregs. Eating habits; some agricultural products such as selenium-enriched rice have the function of supplementing selenium, but in the production process, a large amount of chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used, pesticide residues and heavy metal pollution, and the safety makes people worry; , both of which are characterized by high prices, which are difficult for ordinary consumers to bear for a long time

At the same time, some health care products are mainly made into tablets, powders, and capsules. Selenium supplementation is a long-term process, and it needs to be supplemented every day. After a long time, it is inevitable that you will feel like taking medicine and will inevitably feel bored.

Especially for some white-collar workers, the work pressure is high, the body is in a sub-healthy state, and they need to supplement selenium, but the rhythm of life from 9 to 5 makes it difficult to persist. By the way, selenium is added, which is not only easy to be accepted by the public, but also available as a new selenium supplement product, which will give different groups of people more choices
