Benefits of technology

[0111] An experiment was conducted to measure the toxicity of Salvia sclarea seed oil when administered as a dietary supplement to laying hens, and the resultant level of omega-3 fatty acid, as measured in the hens' body fat and in the resultant egg yolks.
[0112] 11 kg of Salvia sclarea seeds were milled into crude flour, and mixed into standard hen feed at a concentration of 13.75% w/w. Concentrations of 15-17% of the Salvia sclarea flour would also have been appropriate, though they were not included in this experiment. The feed containing the Salvia sclarea flour was stored and used for the duration of the experiment, though typically hen feed is prepared immediately before use.
[0113] 20 hens of the Yarkon variety were selected, having an age of 8.5 months old. At termination of the experiment, the hens numbered 18; this is consistent with the standard mortality rate. The laying capacity was approximately 80-90

Effect of Salvia sclarea Seed-Products on Hens

[0111] An experiment was conducted to measure the toxicity of Salvia sclarea seed oil when administered as a dietary supplement to laying hens, and the resultant level of omega-3 fatty acid, as measured in the hens' body fat and in the resultant egg yolks.

[0112] 11 kg of Salvia sclarea seeds were milled into crude flour, and mixed into standard hen feed at a concentration of 13.75% w / w. Concentrations of 15-17% of the Salvia sclarea flour would also have been appropriate, though they were not included in this experiment. The feed containing the Salvia sclarea flour was stored and used for the duration of the experiment, though typically hen feed is prepared immediately before use.

[0113] 20 hens of the Yarkon variety were selected, having an age of 8.5 months old. At termination of the experiment, the hens numbered 18; this is consistent with the standard mortality rate. The laying capacity was approximately 80-90% at the sta...

Calculations Concerning Salvia sclarea as a Food Supplement for Human Consumption:

[0127] According to the analysis shown in tables 1-4 above it is calculated that 100 grams of Salvia sclarea seeds per day will supply approximately 40% to 50% of the required proteins, including all the US RDA for essential Amino Acids (except a too low quantity of Methionine), approx. 40% of the daily recommendations for fats / oils (based on 2000 calories per day diet) with an excellent fatty acid profile that contains approx. 50% Omega-3 ALA, 25% Oleic Acid, and 3.4 to 1 ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6.

[0128] 100 grams per day of Salvia sclarea seeds will also supply 75% of the recommended USA daily values for dietary fiber based on a 2000 calories diet (or 100% according the UK recommendations), 100% of the US RDA for most of the minerals (Ca, Mg, Cu, Se, Mn), 50% of the US RDA for Potasium(K) and Iron (Fe), 33% for Zinc(Zn) and Boron(B) 1.4 mg / 100 g.

Production of Salvia sclarea a Flour / Powder

[0130] The Salvia sclarea seeds are ground into meal, blended with natural antioxidants to prevent oil oxidation(rancidity) and to prolong the shelf life of the product and then formulated as an ingredient into weight reducing, nutritionally balanced powdered drink mixes, bars and low-cal / low carbohydrates baked goods.

Abstract

The present invention concerns a food supplement comprising Salvia sclarea seeds, or flour, oil or pulp or extracts obtained from the seeds as well as finished food products comprising the food supplement. The present invention further concerns a nutraceutical or cosmetic preparation comprising as an active ingredient Salvia sclarea seeds, or flour, oil or pulp or extracts obtained from the seeds.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to food supplements and nutraceutical compositions for raising omega-levels in a subject. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Current research in nutritional medicine indicates that the omega-3 fatty acids are essential components of the human diet. According to studies published in the British scientific journal Lancet, the observed low incidence of arteriosclerosis (fatty plaques development on the inner walls of the arteries which obstructs the blood flow), including coronary artery disease, and chronic inflammatory disease, and diabetes in Greenland Eskimos has been attributed to their traditional ethnic diet, consisting largely of meat from whale, seals, sea birds and fish. This diet is rich in fat and protein and low in carbohydrates, but it is extremely high in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, and especially rich in two omega-3 fatty acids: C22:6 and C20:5 (DHA) and (EPA). [0003] The most important Omega-3 fatty a...
