Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of probiotics technology, specifically to a probiotic composition for regulating blood sugar and blood lipids and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With rapid economic development and an increasingly fast-paced lifestyle, people's dietary structure has undergone significant changes, leading to overnutrition and nutritional imbalances. This has resulted in a marked increase in the incidence of metabolic diseases, with diabetes being one of the fastest-growing categories. It is well known that diabetes is a serious threat to human health and quality of life. 60% of patients die from diabetic heart disease, 36% from diabetic viral complications, and the blindness rate within five years exceeds 80%. Almost 100% of patients experience lifelong numbness and pain in their hands and feet due to peripheral mental illness. Many patients with diabetic foot suffer from untreatable conditions leading to amputation, causing severe health and economic losses to individuals, families, and society. Therefore, serious attention and treatment of diabetes are urgently needed. Currently, there is no ideal treatment for this disease; therefore, continuously searching for new prevention and treatment methods is the dream of researchers, and they will continue to explore this goal.
[0003] Meanwhile, dyslipidemia / hyperlipidemia is a fundamental vascular disease underlying many cardiovascular-related illnesses, with complex mechanisms that make treatment cumbersome and difficult. Scientific research indicates that gut microbiota is related to blood lipids, and its mechanisms of influencing or exacerbating cardiovascular disease may include, but are not limited to, promoting the production of gut microbiota metabolites and activating immune inflammatory responses.
[0004] Alterations in glucose and lipid metabolism and the occurrence of oxidative stress, along with gut microbiota-related metabolites and their producing bacteria, can respectively promote / inhibit hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and related diseases. Previously, the most direct methods for treating hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia through gut microbiota were drug or dietary interventions.
[0005] In recent years, probiotics have been widely used in beverages. Data shows that approximately 400 to 500 million people worldwide consume probiotic drinks. The market is flooded with various probiotic beverages, and major brands are launching their own to compete for market share. While there are many types of these beverages on the market, they suffer from severe homogenization in function. In particular, there is a lack of probiotic products that effectively lower blood sugar and cholesterol. Although most products contain probiotics, the effects are poor due to long-term storage or the inactivation of most probiotics after entering the body, thus limiting the expansion of this market segment.
[0006] Chinese patent application CN105707896A discloses a probiotic composition with hypoglycemic function, its preparation method, and its application. The composition, by weight percentage, comprises the following components: 60-70% probiotic dry powder, 10-15% Coptis chinensis extract powder, 10-15% Astragalus membranaceus extract powder, and 5-10% Lonicera japonica extract powder.
[0007] Chinese patent application CN114343097A discloses a probiotic solid beverage that can help lower blood sugar and its preparation method. The raw materials include, by weight ratio: 10-20 parts of traditional Chinese medicine complex, 30-40 parts of compound probiotic powder, 5-10 parts of oligomannose, 1-3 parts of freeze-dried powder, 3-5 parts of prebiotics, 1-3 parts of stachyose, 1-3 parts of lactitol, 1-3 parts of L-arabinose, 3-5 parts of Jerusalem artichoke powder, 1-3 parts of maltodextrin, 1-3 parts of green tea powder, and 1-3 parts of citric acid.
[0008] However, these compositions are simply a mixture of probiotics and other ingredients. Not only are they ineffective, but they also suffer from probiotic inactivation. Typically, after entering the body, many probiotics die and become inactive in the stomach due to the acid, preventing them from successfully reaching the intestines and colonizing, thus failing to achieve their intended effect of regulating blood sugar and blood lipids. Summary of the Invention

[0035] The present invention further protects a probiotic composition for regulating blood sugar and blood lipids prepared by the above-described preparation method.
[0036] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0037] This invention prepares a low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate. Fucoidan sulfate typically possesses various biological activities, but these activities are limited by its structural characteristics and a limited number of functional groups, resulting in low water solubility and limited biological activity. This invention utilizes vitamin C and hydrogen peroxide for oxidative degradation, reducing the molecular weight of fucoidan sulfate and improving its water solubility. Simultaneously, it enhances its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, blood glucose and lipid-regulating, and immunomodulatory effects. It can effectively improve glucose homeostasis by inhibiting α-amylase activity and improving glucose tolerance, regulating liver glucose metabolism, and alleviating hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, it is a good prebiotic, helping to promote the utilization of probiotics and exert its blood glucose and lipid-regulating effects.
[0038] This invention selects Astragalus membranaceus, Gynostemma pentaphyllum, Crataegus pinnatifida, and Cornus officinalis as raw materials. Water extraction was used to obtain water extracts. The Astragalus membranaceus extract lowers lipids by inhibiting the biosynthesis of triglycerides and cholesterol in the body. The Crataegus pinnatifida extract inhibits cholesterol synthesis by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway. The Gynostemma pentaphyllum extract inhibits the upregulation of HMGCR, sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c, FAS, and ACC-1 expression in liver tissue, and inhibits the downregulation of PPARα and CPT-1 expression, significantly reducing the formation of lipid droplets in the liver and regulating blood lipid homeostasis. The Cornus officinalis extract inhibits the activity of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, has an insulin-sensitizing effect, increases insulin secretion, and promotes the proliferation of pancreatic β-cells, effectively combating insulin resistance and regulating blood lipid disorders.
[0039] First, this invention involves adding ethanol to the aqueous extract of traditional Chinese medicine to precipitate it, obtaining polysaccharides. These polysaccharides exhibit good blood glucose and lipid regulation effects, promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, regulate gut microbiota homeostasis, and may help regulate abnormal lipid metabolism. Simultaneously, this invention mixes the obtained polysaccharides with low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate, and chelates them with chromium and zinc ions. The chelates form by complexing with free groups such as -OH and -NH2 on the polysaccharide backbone that can provide lone pairs of electrons. Chromium, in its trivalent state, participates in the composition of glucose tolerance factor, assisting insulin in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. Inorganic zinc ions, upon entering the gastrointestinal tract, easily precipitate upon encountering substances such as oxalic acid and phytic acid, making them difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. Selecting a safe and stable carrier to bind with zinc ions helps improve the bioavailability of zinc supplements. Polysaccharide zinc complexes are highly water-soluble and have a high absorption and utilization rate. They possess good biological activity, promote the secretion of insulin by pancreatic cells, reduce blood glucose levels, regulate the sensitivity of hepatocytes to insulin, combine with lipids in the blood, participate in the cholesterol metabolism process, promote lipid transport and excretion, and improve hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia.
[0040] Furthermore, this invention mixes the solid residue of traditional Chinese medicine and wakame seaweed with whey protein, and then inoculates it with *Lactobacillus casei* and *Lactobacillus acidophilus* for fermentation. On the one hand, the probiotics can promote the rupture of the cell walls of the solid residue, dissolving more active components into the fermentation product. On the other hand, it can also promote the proliferation of probiotics, obtaining a high-concentration bacterial solution. *Lactobacillus casei* can regulate glucose metabolism and lower blood sugar through mechanisms such as protecting pancreatic islet structure, increasing the sensitivity of target tissues to insulin, improving insulin sensitivity, accelerating glucose transport, reducing endotoxins, and anti-inflammation. *Lactobacillus acidophilus* can inhibit the body's fat synthesis and enhance fat breakdown, hydrolyzing conjugated bile acids into free bile acids. The solubility of free bile acids decreases, making them less likely to be reabsorbed and reused by the liver through enterohepatic circulation. This promotes the body's use of cholesterol to synthesize new bile acids, reduces cholesterol absorption and clearance, promotes the conversion of cholesterol into bile acids, and promotes the excretion of bile acids, thereby lowering blood and cholesterol levels. The addition of both has a synergistic effect.
[0041] Whey protein can provide a nitrogen source for the fermentation of probiotics. At the same time, under the fermentation action of probiotics, whey protein peptides are generated, which can inhibit the activity of dipeptidyl peptidase IV, thereby increasing the secretion of insulin, reducing atherosclerotic lesions and hepatic steatosis damage, inhibiting lipid accumulation in the liver, reducing the level of liver inflammation and oxidative stress damage, and playing a role in assisting in the regulation of blood sugar and blood lipids.
[0042] The aqueous extracts and fermentation permeate of traditional Chinese medicine contain abundant active components such as polyphenols, flavonoids, and triterpenes, which have excellent activity in regulating blood sugar and blood lipids. However, there are also some other impurities that reduce the regulatory activity. Therefore, this invention uses ionic liquids for separation and purification. After CO2 is introduced, the polarity of the ionic liquid increases, which helps to extract these active substances from the aqueous solution into the ionic liquid layer. After heating, the ionic liquid changes from high polarity to normal polarity, and these active components are separated from the ionic liquid. After removing the ionic liquid, the active components are well separated and purified, and the regulatory activity is greatly enhanced.
[0043] This invention utilizes the synergistic encapsulation of concentrated bacterial culture with polysaccharide-Zn / Cr chelates and sodium alginate. On one hand, the polysaccharide-Zn / Cr chelate forms a relatively stable shell with sodium alginate under the cross-linking effect of calcium chloride, encapsulating probiotics within microspheres. The dense cross-linked structure effectively protects the probiotics against the effects of gastric acid and choline, increasing the viable count of probiotics and significantly enhancing their regulatory effect. On the other hand, both the polysaccharide-Zn / Cr chelate and sodium alginate are excellent prebiotics. After rupturing in the intestines, they can be directly utilized by probiotics, promoting their proliferation. Simultaneously, while being utilized, the polysaccharide-Zn / Cr chelate exerts excellent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and blood glucose and lipid-regulating effects, while the released Zn and Cr ions exert excellent metabolic regulatory effects.
[0044] The composition of this invention also includes total saponins of Panax notoginseng and ginsenoside Rg4. Total saponins of Panax notoginseng possess various biological activities and may exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and hypolipidemic effects in vivo. Ginsenoside Rg4 has health benefits by enhancing the body's immunity, improving physical fitness, promoting normal metabolism, lowering blood sugar (helping alleviate symptoms in diabetic patients), and lowering blood lipids (helping improve blood circulation, thus helping to alleviate cardiovascular diseases). The addition of both has a synergistic effect.
[0045] The probiotic composition for regulating blood sugar and blood lipids prepared by this invention can play a good role in anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, blood sugar and blood lipid reduction, and has a certain immunomodulatory effect. It can also improve the storage time of probiotics and increase the number of live bacteria after entering the human intestine, which greatly improves the metabolic regulation effect of the composition and has broad application prospects.

TG participates in lipid synthesis and accumulation, and a decrease in its levels can also inhibit lipid synthesis. HDL-C can promote the breakdown and metabolism of TC and TG. As shown in the table above, the probiotic compositions for regulating blood sugar and lipids prepared in Examples 1-3 of this invention have a good lipid-lowering effect.
[0168] Oral glucose tolerance test: The oral glucose tolerance test was conducted after a 10-hour fast on the day of the experiment. Blood glucose levels were measured by tail vein sampling at 30 and 60 minutes after glucose ingestion (2 g / kg). The results are shown in Table 5.

[0172] Note: * indicates P < 0.05 compared to the normal group; # indicates P < 0.05 compared to the model group.
[0173] As can be seen from the table above, the probiotic compositions for regulating blood sugar and blood lipids prepared in Examples 1-3 of the present invention have a good blood sugar lowering effect.
[0174] Compared to Example 3, Comparative Example 1 did not involve oxidative degradation in step S1. This resulted in decreased antioxidant, lipid-lowering, and blood glucose-lowering properties. This invention prepares a low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate. While fucoidan sulfate typically possesses various biological activities, these are limited by its structural characteristics and limited functional groups, leading to low water solubility and bioactivity. This invention utilizes vitamin C and hydrogen peroxide for oxidative degradation, reducing the molecular weight of fucoidan sulfate and increasing its water solubility. Simultaneously, it enhances its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, blood glucose and lipid-regulating, and immunomodulatory effects. It can effectively improve glucose homeostasis by inhibiting α-amylase activity and improving glucose tolerance, regulating liver glucose metabolism, and alleviating hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, it is a good prebiotic, promoting the utilization of probiotics and exerting its blood glucose and lipid-regulating effects.
[0175] Compared with Example 3, Comparative Examples 2 and 3 did not include the addition of low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate or traditional Chinese medicine polysaccharides in step S3. The antioxidant, lipid-lowering, and hypoglycemic properties were significantly reduced. The traditional Chinese medicine polysaccharides of this invention lower lipids by inhibiting the biosynthetic pathways of triglycerides and cholesterol in vivo, regulate the NF-κB signaling pathway, inhibit cholesterol synthesis, inhibit the upregulation of HMGCR, sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c, FAS, and ACC-1 expression in liver tissue, inhibit the downregulation of PPARα and CPT-1 expression, significantly reduce the formation of liver lipid droplets, regulate blood lipid homeostasis, inhibit the activity of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, and have an insulin-sensitizing effect, increasing insulin secretion and promoting pancreatic β-cell proliferation, effectively combating insulin resistance and regulating blood lipid disorders. Low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate effectively improves glucose homeostasis by inhibiting α-amylase activity and improving glucose tolerance, regulating liver glucose metabolism, and improving hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia.
[0176] Compared with Example 3, Comparative Examples 4 and 5 did not add chromium chloride or zinc nitrate in step S3. Comparative Example 6, compared with Example 3, did not add chromium chloride or zinc nitrate in step S3. The lipid-lowering and blood glucose-lowering effects were decreased. This invention mixes the prepared traditional Chinese medicine polysaccharide with low molecular weight fucoidan sulfate, and through chelation with chromium and zinc ions, it forms chelates with free groups such as -OH and -NH2 on the polysaccharide backbone that can provide lone pair electrons. The trace element chromium participates in the composition of glucose tolerance factor in a trivalent state, assisting insulin in regulating the metabolism of glucose and lipids. Inorganic zinc ions easily precipitate upon encountering substances such as oxalic acid and phytic acid after entering the gastrointestinal tract, making them difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. Choosing a safe and stable carrier to bind with zinc ions helps improve the bioavailability of zinc supplements. Polysaccharide zinc complexes are highly water-soluble and have a high absorption and utilization rate. They possess good biological activity, promote the secretion of insulin by pancreatic cells, reduce blood glucose levels, regulate the sensitivity of hepatocytes to insulin, combine with lipids in the blood, participate in the cholesterol metabolism process, promote lipid transport and excretion, and improve hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia.
[0177] Compared with Example 3, Comparative Examples 7 and 8 did not include Lactobacillus casei or Lactobacillus acidophilus seed culture in step S4. This resulted in decreased antioxidant, lipid-lowering, and blood glucose-lowering properties. In this invention, traditional Chinese medicine residue and wakame seaweed residue are mixed with whey protein and then inoculated with Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus acidophilus for fermentation. On one hand, the probiotics promote the rupture of the cell walls of the residue, releasing more active components into the fermentation product. On the other hand, they also promote the proliferation of probiotics, resulting in a high-concentration bacterial culture. Lactobacillus casei can regulate glucose metabolism and lower blood glucose through mechanisms such as protecting pancreatic islet structure, increasing the sensitivity of target tissues to insulin, improving insulin sensitivity, accelerating glucose transport, reducing endotoxins, and anti-inflammation. Lactobacillus acidophilus can inhibit fat synthesis and enhance fat breakdown, hydrolyzing conjugated bile acids into free bile acids. The reduced solubility of free bile acids makes them less susceptible to reabsorption and reuse by the liver through enterohepatic circulation. This promotes the body's synthesis of new bile acids from cholesterol, reduces cholesterol absorption and clearance, promotes the conversion of cholesterol into bile acids, and facilitates bile acid excretion, thereby lowering blood and cholesterol levels. The addition of both has a synergistic effect.
[0178] Compared to Example 3, Comparative Example 9 did not undergo ionic liquid purification in step S5. This resulted in decreased antioxidant, lipid-lowering, and blood glucose-lowering properties. The aqueous extract and fermentation permeate of the traditional Chinese medicine also contain abundant polyphenols, flavonoids, triterpenes, and other active components, exhibiting excellent activity in regulating blood glucose and lipids. However, some other impurities reduce this regulatory activity. Therefore, this invention uses ionic liquids for separation and purification. After introducing CO2, the polarity of the ionic liquid increases, facilitating the extraction of these active substances from the aqueous solution into the ionic liquid layer. Upon heating, the ionic liquid returns from high polarity to normal polarity, allowing these active components to separate from the ionic liquid. Removing the ionic liquid results in better separation and purification of the active components, significantly enhancing the regulatory activity.
[0179] Compared with Example 3, Comparative Examples 10 and 11 did not add Panax notoginseng total saponins or ginsenoside Rg4 in step S7. Compared with Example 3, Comparative Example 12 did not add ginsenoside Rg4 or Panax notoginseng total saponins in step S7. Antioxidant properties, lipid-lowering properties, and blood sugar-lowering properties decreased. The composition of this invention also contains Panax notoginseng total saponins and ginsenoside Rg4. Panax notoginseng total saponins have various biological activities and may exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, blood sugar-lowering, and lipid-lowering effects in vivo. Ginsenoside Rg4 has health-promoting functions such as enhancing immunity, improving physical fitness, promoting normal metabolism, lowering blood sugar (helping to alleviate symptoms in diabetic patients), and lowering blood lipids (helping to improve blood circulation, thereby helping to alleviate cardiovascular diseases). The addition of both has a synergistic effect.
[0180] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
