Problems solved by technology

Examples of substances used as materials for reducing bitterness include addition of phosphatidic acid (Kao Corporation), L-ornithine (Food Science, No. 317, p54, 2004), sugar alcohols (Japanese Patent Laid-Open 7-274829), sugar cane extract (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-34471), etc., but these substances do not always have a strong effect on foods and drugs with strong bitterness when used alone
Furthermore, in the taste-masking technique of adding a sweetener such as sucralose (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-99682), the bitterness is more or less masked by the sweetener, but the use of this technique is subject to certain restrictions due to their strong sweet taste. limit
In addition, the inclusion technology of bitter substances using cyclodextrin (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-57153) has a masking effect on specific bitter components, but this effect is significantly affected by the degree of inclusion
When health care products or medicines are tablets, sugar coating is usually mainly carried out, and film coating and microencapsulation techniques are also used, but these methods cannot completely cover the bitter taste, and the required operation steps are also more complicated, while liquid Beverages, food, health care products and pharmaceuticals of preparations cannot use these technologies

Embodiment 1

[0015] As the main calcium source used in calcium supplements for children and adults, L-calcium lactate has a certain bitterness and astringency, and inhibition of its bitterness is an important issue in the development of calcium supplements that use it as a calcium source.

[0016] In this example, L-calcium lactate is used as the raw material for calcium supplementation health products that need to suppress bitter taste. It is divided into three groups. Each group is divided into three groups. Each group contains 5g of L-calcium lactate powder, which is added as shown in Table 1 below. Add the amount of L-malic acid and sodium ascorbate, and then add 50mL warm water to make up and mix well. The bitterness and sourness of the solution were tasted and evaluated by 40 panelists. The bitterness of the L-calcium lactate solution prepared by adding 50 mL of warm water without adding any bitterness inhibitor and only adding 50 mL of warm water and stirring evenly was recorded as 5 po...

Embodiment 2

[0021] Corn peptide is a protein extracted from corn. It is a small-molecule peptide substance obtained through directed enzyme digestion and specific small peptide separation technology. It contains various amino acids necessary for the human body and is rich in nutrients. It can lower blood pressure, lower blood lipids, protect liver, and enhance Various functions such as immunity have been widely used in health foods in recent years. However, corn peptide has a strong bitter taste, so that health foods such as granules and chewable tablets made from corn peptide have a poor taste.

[0022] In this example, corn peptide is used as the raw material of calcium supplementation health products that need to suppress bitter taste, divided into four groups, each group is divided into three groups, each group has 5g of corn peptide powder, and the L-apple as shown in Table 2 below Add the amount of acid and sodium ascorbate, and then add 50mL of warm water to make up and mix well. The...

[0027] Aloe vera leaves contain polysaccharides, anthraquinone compounds, proteins, vitamins, minerals, etc. The effective ingredients are aloin, isoaloin, β-aloside, aloe-emodin, and aloin A, B, etc. Hemostatic, hemostasis, anti-infection and anti-tumor treatment effects. Aloe extract can promote the regeneration and healing of damaged tissues, including X-ray burns, as well as detoxification, lowering blood lipids, anti-atherosclerosis, and promoting experimental anemia hematopoietic function The recovery and other pharmacological effects. At present, there are more and more granulated health foods and medicines made of aloe extract, but they have a strong bitter taste that most people cannot accept, which greatly reduces the palatability of aloe extract products.

[0028] In this example, aloe extract is used as the raw material for calcium supplementation health care products that need to suppress bitter taste, divided into four groups, each group is divided into three groups...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a bitterness suppressing agent and solves the technical problems in the prior art that bitterness suppressing agents are high in technical dependence, complicated in operation steps and not obvious in effect of bitterness suppression. The provided bitterness suppressing agent consists of two raw materials of L-malic acid and sodium ascorbate, and the weight ratio of the L-malic acid to the sodium ascorbate is 10:1. The L-malic acid and sodium ascorbate are combined, so that the bitterness suppressing agent can obviously improve the mouthfeel of drink and food or health-care products or pharmaceutical products which need to eliminate the bitterness, completely inhibits and eliminates the bitterness of the drinks, at the same time improves flavor and nutritional value, and can be widely used in the drink and food or health-care products or pharmaceutical products.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bitterness inhibitor, in particular to a bitterness inhibitor for compounding L-malic acid and sodium ascorbate to eliminate the bitterness of food or health products or medicines. Background technique [0002] In recent years, due to the diversification of consumer preferences and rising health awareness, various beverages, foods, health products and pharmaceuticals with functional ingredients have increasingly appeared on the market and in people’s lives, especially Foods with various health functions. With the increase of sub-healthy population and the improvement of people's health awareness, the sales of health products are increasing day by day, the varieties are becoming more and more perfect, and many products with multiple functional substances have appeared at the same time. In the functional components of these beverages, foods, health products, and pharmaceuticals, they often have a bitter taste. For example, hops ext...
