Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of health food, in particular to a production device for iron folic acid chewable tablets and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Health food is a type of food. It has the common characteristics of general food, can regulate the body's functions, and is suitable for specific groups of people, but it is not intended to treat diseases. Health food contains a certain amount of effective ingredients, can regulate the body's functions, has specific effects, and is suitable for specific groups of people. General food does not have specific functions and has no specific range of consumption for a specific group of people. Health food cannot be used directly to treat diseases. It is a human body mechanism regulator and nutritional supplement. There are many types of health care products, among which there are 27 types of adult health care products. There are those that are good for white skin, such as anti-oxidation to delay aging, improve skin moisture, remove chloasma and acne; there are those that are good for human organs, such as auxiliary protection of gastric mucosa and acid liver damage; there are also those that are beneficial to all aspects of the human body, such as improving sleep quality, reducing eyesight and mental fatigue, assisting in lowering blood pressure and lowering blood lipids, and helping to moisturize the intestines. Nutrient supplement health products are to supplement minerals and vitamins, prevent the occurrence of some diseases, and supplement the nutrients in the human diet.
[0003] Iron is one of the key nutrients that pregnant women and nursing mothers consume daily. Iron deficiency in early or mid-pregnancy can slow fetal growth, enlarge the heart, and delay the development of the cardiovascular system. Iron deficiency in late pregnancy is harmful to the fetus mainly in the form of premature birth, low birth weight, and damage to the fetal nervous system. In addition, there have been many reports of iron deficiency in pregnant women causing cognitive, motor, and emotional communication disorders in offspring. If the fetus continues to be iron deficient from pregnancy to lactation, damage to its brain can last for a long time, even into adulthood, and cannot be restored by subsequent iron supplementation. This shows the severity of iron deficiency.
[0004] Existing products can basically maintain the stability and effectiveness of iron and folic acid, thereby meeting the needs of special groups for supplementing iron and folic acid. Existing iron and folic acid chewable tablets have a single color and taste bad, which affects consumers' interest in eating. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the existing problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an iron folic acid chewable tablet production device and a preparation method thereof to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] A method for producing an iron folic acid chewable tablet comprises the following steps:
[0008] S1. Weighing: according to the amount of materials, weigh folic acid 0.33-0.35%, ferric pyrophosphate 2.5-2.8%, sorbitol 89.762-89.898%, maltodextrin 5-6%, citric acid 1-1.2%, magnesium stearate 0.6-0.8%, sweet orange flavor 0.5-0.6%, lemon yellow aluminum lake 0.008-0.01% respectively, and set aside;
[0009] S2, premixing: taking the weighed maltodextrin and ferric pyrophosphate, folic acid and citric acid and mixing them evenly to obtain a mixture A;
