Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sports nutrition food technology, specifically to a nutritional composition for post-exercise joint recovery and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] With the popularization of the concept of fitness for all and the development of professional competitive sports, the scale of the sports population continues to expand. Among them, people who engage in high-intensity training and long-term endurance sports generally face a series of physiological problems such as chronic wear and tear on bones and joints, continuous muscle fatigue, accelerated rate of calcium loss, muscle spasms and nerve excitation after exercise. These problems not only reduce athletic performance, but also increase the risk of bone and joint damage, affecting the long-term health status of sports participants.

[0003] Currently available nutritional products for post-exercise recovery can be mainly divided into two core categories, but their functional positioning and technological approaches have obvious limitations:

[0004] The first category is protein / peptide repair products. These products use collagen peptides and whey protein as core active ingredients. Their main focus is on the rapid repair of skeletal muscle tissue after exercise. They can only play a limited auxiliary role in the soft tissue of the bone and joint surface and cannot cover key aspects such as bone calcium supplementation, calcium metabolism regulation, and neuromuscular relaxation.

[0005] The second category is mineral supplements. These products mainly contain calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D3 as added ingredients. Their core function is limited to supplementing basic bone nutrition. They have not built a complete calcium absorption and targeted deposition pathway, and they also lack ingredients that regulate neuromuscular stress after exercise. Their functions are limited.

[0006] Based on the actual application scenarios and technical implementation paths of existing products, current nutritional products for post-exercise joint recovery suffer from four insurmountable technical defects:

[0007] The repair system lacks a systematic approach. Existing products focus on a single repair link, such as supplementing calcium, collagen peptides, or regulating muscle function. They have not formed a complete, integrated bone and joint recovery system that covers the entire chain of cartilage raw material supply, gentle calcium supplementation, intestinal calcium absorption promotion, targeted calcium deposition in bones, and neuromuscular relaxation and soothing. As a result, they cannot achieve synergistic repair effects.

[0008] The calcium metabolism regulation chain is incomplete. Most products only use a combination of calcium source + vitamin D3, without adding vitamin K2, a key calcium-targeting and regulating component. As a result, calcium ions absorbed by the intestine cannot be accurately deposited in bone tissue. Excessive free calcium can easily lead to potential health risks such as vascular calcification, and calcium utilization efficiency is greatly reduced.

[0009] Ignoring the need for synchronous neuromuscular recovery after exercise, existing bone and joint care products generally do not contain neuromodulatory and muscle-relaxing ingredients such as taurine and glycine. As a result, they cannot alleviate problems such as excessive nerve excitability, persistent muscle spasms, and limb tension after exercise, and their recovery effects are significantly lacking.

[0010] Calcium sources can be quite irritating to the stomach and intestines. Conventional calcium sources such as calcium carbonate and calcium citrate can easily cause bloating, acid reflux, and gastrointestinal discomfort when the stomach and intestines are sensitive after exercise. They are not well-suited for use by athletes, especially those with weak gastrointestinal function, and cannot meet the needs of immediate supplementation after exercise. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The purpose of this invention is to provide a nutritional composition for post-exercise joint recovery and its preparation method, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0012] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a nutritional composition for post-exercise joint recovery, comprising the following raw materials in parts by weight: 25-35 parts collagen peptides, 10-18 parts calcium glycine, 5-10 parts free glycine, 2-5 parts L-lysine, 4-6 parts taurine, 3-5 parts magnesium citrate, 0.0001-0.0003 parts vitamin D3, 0.0005-0.001 parts vitamin K2, 8-12 parts erythritol, 20-30 parts maltodextrin, and 0.1-0.5 parts silicon dioxide.

[0013] Furthermore, it includes the following raw materials in parts by weight: 28-32 parts collagen peptides, 13-15 parts calcium glycine, 6-9 parts free glycine, 3-4 parts L-lysine, 4-5 parts taurine, 3-4 parts magnesium citrate, 0.00015-0.0002 parts vitamin D3, 0.0006-0.0009 parts vitamin K2, 9-11 parts erythritol, 23-27 parts maltodextrin, and 0.15-0.3 parts silicon dioxide.

[0014] Furthermore, the glycine calcium is an organic chelated calcium source, and the vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 constitute a synergistic regulatory component for calcium absorption and bone targeting.

[0015] Furthermore, the taurine, free glycine, and magnesium citrate constitute a neuromuscular relaxation synergistic component.

[0016] The specific functions of each component are as follows:

[0017] Collagen peptides: As the core raw material for bone and joint repair, they can provide small molecule peptides needed for the synthesis of articular cartilage, ligaments, tendons and other connective tissues, directly participate in the repair and regeneration of damaged cartilage tissue, and enhance the toughness and pressure resistance of bones and joints.

[0018] Calcium glycinate: As the core calcium source of the composition, it is an organic chelated calcium with stable elemental calcium content and good solubility. Compared with calcium carbonate and calcium citrate, it is non-irritating to the gastrointestinal mucosa and can still be gently absorbed in the sensitive state of the gastrointestinal tract after exercise, making it suitable for immediate supplementation after exercise.

[0019] Free glycine: On the one hand, it can work synergistically with taurine to relax nerves, relieve post-exercise nerve excitement, help improve sleep quality, and provide a guarantee for the body's recovery; on the other hand, it can participate in creatine synthesis, help muscle energy metabolism, and relieve muscle fatigue.

[0020] L-Lysine: As an essential amino acid, it can significantly improve the efficiency of calcium ion transport and absorption in the intestine, and form a dual calcium absorption-promoting mechanism with vitamin D3, further improving calcium utilization.

[0021] Taurine can stabilize the membrane potential of nerve cells after exercise, reduce nerve excitability, and relieve stress such as limb tension and irritability after exercise. At the same time, it works with glycine to achieve synchronous relaxation of neuromuscular nerves.

[0022] Magnesium citrate: Magnesium is a key mineral that regulates muscle contraction and relaxation. It can effectively relieve muscle spasms, cramps, and soreness after exercise and enhance muscle relaxation.

[0023] Vitamin D3: Its core function is to promote the absorption of calcium ions by the intestinal mucosa, increase blood calcium levels, and provide a foundation for subsequent calcium deposition in bones. It is an essential component in the calcium absorption process.

[0024] Vitamin K2: It can activate osteocalcin protein in the body, guide free calcium ions to accurately bind and deposit in bone tissue, avoid abnormal deposition of calcium ions in blood vessels, soft tissues and other parts, realize targeted delivery of calcium to bones, and close the complete calcium metabolism chain.

[0025] Erythritol: As a natural sweetener, it can improve the taste of the product after mixing. It has no calories, does not cause blood sugar fluctuations, and will not damage teeth, thus improving the palatability of the product.

[0026] Maltodextrin: As a filler and reconstituted ingredient, it can improve the solubility and dispersibility of powders, ensuring that the product is free of lumps and uniformly clear after reconstitution, while providing the body with a small amount of fast-acting carbohydrates;

[0027] Silica: As an anti-caking agent, it can reduce the adhesion between powder particles, improve product flowability, prevent clumping and moisture absorption during storage, and ensure product quality stability.

[0028] Synergistic mechanism:

[0029] Cartilage repair pathway: After oral absorption, collagen peptides act on articular cartilage tissue to replenish collagen components lost from the cartilage matrix, repair micro-damage to cartilage caused by exercise, and maintain cartilage elasticity and lubrication.

[0030] Gentle calcium supplementation pathway: As an organic chelated calcium, glycine calcium can be absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract without the need for large amounts of gastric acid activation, avoiding the burden on the gastrointestinal tract after exercise and stably replenishing the calcium lost by the body;

[0031] Calcium absorption enhancement pathway: Vitamin D3 promotes the transmembrane transport of calcium ions in the intestine, and L-lysine enhances the efficiency of calcium ion transport. The dual effects significantly improve the rate and total amount of calcium absorption.

[0032] Calcium-bone targeted pathway: Vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin, which precisely anchors absorbed calcium ions to bone tissue, increases bone density, and avoids the risk of vascular calcification, thus solving the core defects of traditional calcium supplements.

[0033] Neuromuscular relaxation pathway: Taurine and free glycine synergistically regulate nerve excitability, magnesium citrate relieves muscle spasms, and the three work together to achieve nerve relaxation and muscle relaxation after exercise, eliminating limb tension and fatigue.

[0034] A method for preparing a nutritional composition for post-exercise joint recovery includes the following steps:

[0035] (1) Raw material pretreatment: Each solid raw material is passed through a 60-80 mesh sieve;

[0036] (2) Trace component premixing: Vitamin D3, vitamin K2 and maltodextrin are mixed by equal incremental addition and premixed for 5-10 minutes;

[0037] (3) Total mixing: Put the remaining pretreated raw materials and premixed powder into a three-dimensional mixer and mix for 15-25 minutes;

[0038] (4) Packaging: Automatic packaging machine is used to repackage the product into 5g bags, with a weight error of ±0.2g;

[0039] (5) Optional sterilization: Sterilization is performed using ultraviolet light or microwave.

[0040] Furthermore, the solid raw materials mentioned in step (1) include collagen peptides, calcium glycine, free glycine, L-lysine, taurine, magnesium citrate, erythritol, maltodextrin, and silicon dioxide.

[0041] Furthermore, the equal-quantity incremental addition method described in step (2) involves mixing a trace amount of vitamins with an equal weight of maltodextrin, and then gradually adding the remaining maltodextrin to dilute and mix.

[0042] Furthermore, the product packaged in step (4) is an oral powder, which is taken once a day, two packets each time, and mixed with warm water below 40℃.

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0044] This invention breaks through the limitations of existing products with only one function, simultaneously achieving the effects of cartilage repair, calcium supplementation, calcium absorption promotion, calcium-targeted bone health, and neuromuscular relaxation, forming an integrated post-exercise recovery solution with a more comprehensive and systematic repair effect. It improves the complete regulatory pathway of calcium metabolism, achieving efficient absorption and precise deposition of calcium ions through the synergistic effect of vitamin D3 and vitamin K2, significantly improving calcium utilization while avoiding the potential health risks caused by abnormal deposition of free calcium, thus solving the core technical defects of traditional calcium supplements. It strengthens neuromuscular recovery function after exercise, effectively alleviating problems such as post-exercise nerve excitation, muscle spasms, and limb tightness through the synergistic combination of taurine, free glycine, and magnesium citrate, achieving synchronous recovery of bones, joints, and neuromuscular systems, and enhancing the overall recovery experience. It uses a mild calcium source formula, replacing traditional calcium sources with calcium glycine, reducing gastrointestinal irritation, and can be safely taken even in a sensitive gastrointestinal state after exercise, improving product adaptability and tolerance, and making it suitable for immediate post-exercise supplementation.
