Benefits of technology

[0003]The present invention is a single, dual chambered packet containing both sterilized water or other hydrating source and a supplemental powder. The invention is also the way the ingredients are packaged in a sterile environment, sterilized themselves, to provide a safe consumable in time of need. This is accomplished by incorporating either a measured dose of sterilized water and a measured dose of sterilized supplement into the package. It can also be accomplish using a retort method to provide ...

Embodiment Construction

[0005]The present invention will now be described with reference to the diagram of FIG. 1, which depicts the following principal elements of the system and process. Of course, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that a variety of modifications and changes in the system and process can be undertaken without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.

[0006]The component parts of the system and process include the following:

[0007]1. Supplement[0008]The supplement can be any powder compilation which requires the powdered state to remain viable over time. Examples can include protein powders, vitamin enriched powders, high carbohydrate powders, antibiotic containing powders, etc.

[0009]2. Hydrating Media[0010]The hydrating media can be any liquid form media which is miscible with the adjoining powder in the packet. Typically this could be water or stable water based liquid. It could also be alcohol based in desired situations.

[0011]3. Packaging[0012]The packaging...

Abstract

The purpose of this invention is to provide a means to produce a supplemental food source which maintains viability and stability due to the physical separation of the liquid and solid ingredients by using frangible food grade packaging techniques. The frangible food grade flexible packaging technique only utilizes a preinstalled adhesive or heat binding between the layers. This system then only requires pressure from the end user to enable the container to open and allow mixing. This system replaces the current mixing process whereby the end user must have a water source, container and mixing apparatus to homogenize a bulk powder into a usable form. This new powder and liquid delivery system improves the shelf life of the supplement dramatically thereby increasing product use in situations of limited or no potable water, limited or no available food sources, limited storage or carry space for food sources and the need to store for great periods of time in a variety of conditions.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention[0001]This invention pertains generally to the mixing of soluble food powders with water based liquids. This apparatus is more preferentially a food supplement hydration apparatus and method. On terms that are more specific this invention pertains to the Supplement Powder Mixing Process and Shelf Life and even more specifically to the ability to maintain viability of non-mixed supplement powders and water in the same container for sustained periods of time prior to mixing in the same container.2. Description of the Related Art[0002]Currently supplement powders are sold on the open market in bulk. The typical way to utilize these powders would be to add a premeasured amount of water or other hydrating liquid at the time of use. This batching process allows the water or hydrating liquid to be in the same container at all times with the supplemental powder while maintaining the separation of the two. Provided the packaging was conduct...
