Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food technology, specifically to a low glycemic index five black goji berry and sesame seed ball and its production process. Background Technology

[0002] Black sesame balls are a traditional health food that is both food and medicine. They are mainly made of black sesame seeds and are widely used for daily nutritional supplementation and health conditioning due to their convenience and rich nutrition.

[0003] Most commercially available black sesame seed balls are made using traditional methods, often employing honey, maltose, or sucrose as a binding matrix to ensure proper shaping and texture. These high-sugar ingredients not only add extra calories but also have a high glycemic index, easily causing a rapid rise in blood sugar levels after consumption. This does not meet the health management needs of diabetic patients, people with high blood sugar, or those requiring weight control.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, this application proposes a low-glycemic five-black goji berry sesame seed pill and its production process. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a low-glycemic index five-black goji berry and sesame seed pill and its production process, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

The functional adhesive is maltitol liquid and liquid polydextrose, which together constitute 4% to 16% of the total weight in the formulation; the flavoring ingredients include, by weight percentage: 2% to 6% corn oil, 1% to 5% black beans, 0.2% to 2% black goji berry powder and 0.5% to 3% black rice.

[0007] Preferably, the jujube granules are pitted and cut into small pieces with a particle size of 2mm to 5mm. The functional adhesive is composed of maltitol solution and liquid polydextrose in a weight ratio of 1:0.4 to 1.5.

[0008] Preferably, the glycemic index (GI) of the sesame balls is 32±2. The sesame balls contain 16.2g of protein per 100g and 11.29g to 11.7g of dietary fiber per 100g.

[0009] Preferably, each 100g of the sesame seed balls contains the following trace elements: calcium 2.98×10³mg / kg, iron 48.0mg / kg, zinc 28.0mg / kg, and selenium 0.139mg / kg.

[0010] The present invention also provides a production process for the above-mentioned sesame balls, including the following steps: 1) Raw material inspection (CCP1): Sensory inspection of raw and auxiliary materials to ensure that they are free from mold, pests and odors; 2) Pretreatment: Roast the black sesame seeds, remove the pits from the red dates and cut them into 2mm-5mm pieces; 3) Ingredient preparation and mixing: Take the ingredients according to the proportions and mix them evenly; 4) Temperature-controlled steaming (CCP2): Steam the mixture at 104℃-106℃ for 20-40 minutes; 5) Mixing and shaping: Add corn oil to the steamed material and mix well. Then press and roll the mixture into balls. 6) Inner packaging material disinfection (CCP3): Ozone disinfection of inner packaging materials, the ozone concentration must meet the sterilization requirements, and the disinfection time ≥ 30 minutes; 7) Packaging Inspection (CCP4): Foreign objects are detected by X-ray machine after the product is sealed.

[0011] Furthermore, in step 4), the degree of starch gelatinization in the raw materials is adjusted by precisely controlling the steaming temperature deviation within ±1℃, thereby ensuring that the measured GI value of the final product is stable at 32±2.

[0012] Furthermore, during the stirring process in step 5), corn oil is added to improve the surface gloss and smoothness of the sesame balls.

[0013] Furthermore, in step 7), the detection sensitivity requirements for the X-ray detector are: iron (FE) particle size ≤ 1.0 mm, and stainless steel (SUS) particle size ≤ 2.0 mm.

[0014] In summary, the present invention has the following main beneficial effects: This invention scientifically combines medicinal and edible ingredients such as black sesame, goji berries, and mulberries, and innovatively uses maltitol solution and liquid polydextrose to construct a composite sugar substitute binding system. This successfully reduces the product's glycemic index (GI value) to 32. Compared to traditional sesame balls that use honey or sugar as a binder, this invention significantly reduces postprandial blood sugar fluctuations while maintaining high protein and dietary fiber content. It provides a healthy food that nourishes the body and manages blood sugar for diabetic patients, people with high blood sugar, and people who are controlling their calorie intake and losing weight. This solves the health burden caused by the excessive sugar content of traditional tonics. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Example 2 The sesame balls prepared in Example 1 were subjected to authoritative third-party testing, and the nutritional characteristics obtained are shown in Table 1:

[0022] Example 3 I. Experimental Design The study included 12 participants, 6 males and 6 females, aged 21 to 51 years, with a mean age of 34.9 ± 9.6 years. Healthy adults aged 18 to 60, with an equal number of men and women; Normal weight, BMI between 18.5 and 24.0 kg / m² 2 Within this range, and without metabolic, digestive, or endocrine diseases; No history of diabetes, and no use of hypoglycemic drugs; No history of food allergies or intolerances, and no history of fainting at the sight of blood; No medications affecting glucose tolerance have been taken in the past 3 months.

[0023] II. Blood Glucose Measurement Procedure The testing period is 2 weeks, and the testing period includes at least 3 independent food trials, of which the reference food is tested more than 2 times and the test food is tested more than 1 time. The interval between each independent food trial is more than 72 hours. The test food should be arranged between the 2 reference food trials.

[0024] For the three days prior to the test, subjects maintained a regular sleep schedule and normal diet. On the day before the test, subjects avoided high-fiber and high-sugar foods for dinner and began fasting before 10:00 PM. On the morning of the test, subjects avoided strenuous exercise and began the food test after sitting quietly for 10 minutes.

[0025] Two fasting blood samples were collected at 5-minute intervals. After starting to eat, the eating time was strictly controlled. All test substances and water were consumed within 5-10 minutes. The timing was started from the time of the first bite, and blood samples were collected at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after the meal. If necessary, the blood collection time could be extended (e.g., 180 minutes) to ensure the consistency and accuracy of the blood collection time points.

[0026] III. Experimental Results The glycemic response curves for glucose and a reference food were compared. Consuming glucose and a pastry (five-black goji berry and sesame balls) with the same amount of available carbohydrates showed that the pastry (five-black goji berry and sesame balls) caused less postprandial blood glucose fluctuation than glucose. The glycemic response curves are shown below. Figure 1 As shown; According to the blood glucose response curves, within 120 minutes, the blood glucose response curves of the pastry (five black goji berry and sesame balls) and glucose showed similar trends. The overall trend was an initial increase followed by a decrease. Both glucose and the pastry (five black goji berry and sesame balls) reached their highest values ​​15 minutes after consumption and remained stable after 45 minutes. After consuming the pastry (five black goji berry and sesame balls), blood glucose changes were stable.

[0027] For the first glucose test, the blood glucose concentration and IAUC value are shown in Table 2.

[0028] For the second glucose test, the blood glucose concentration and IAUC value are shown in Table 3.

[0029] Refer to Table 4 for the IAUC values ​​and average values ​​of the food glucose test.

[0030] The blood glucose concentrations and average values ​​of the food samples are shown in Table 5.

[0031] For calculating the GI value of the food tasted, refer to Table 6.

[0032] Final conclusion: A total of 12 subjects participated in this study. The study included two independent food trials of the reference food and one food trial. The results showed that, with glucose as the reference (GI of 100), the average GI of the food trial was 32.14, and the final GI value was rounded to 32. Therefore, the food was classified as a low GI (low glycemic index) food.
