Solution Overview

Problem

There is a lack of nutritional supplements combining turmeric, Peganum harmala, and Arum palaestinum for human health benefits, and none are developed for enhancing the health of companion animals, particularly dogs, despite the individual components showing promise for various health aspects.

Innovation Solution

Development of nutritional supplements comprising individual quantities of turmeric, Peganum harmala, and Arum palaestinum, with turmeric in greater amounts, formulated as powders for easy administration, either in capsules or other forms, to support normal blood glucose and cholesterol levels, prostate health, and cellular division, also applicable for canine health.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If individual plant extracts (turmeric, Peganum harmala, Arum palaestinum) are used separately, then each provides specific health benefits, but no comprehensive nutritional supplement combines these ingredients for synergistic effects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehealth benefits coverageVSAvoidingredient combination complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines three separate plant extracts (turmeric, Peganum harmala, and Arum palaestinum) into a single nutritional supplement composition. This merging principle resolves the contradiction by integrating multiple health-benefiting ingredients into one versatile product that provides comprehensive health support while maintaining manageable complexity through standardized formulation ratios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The combined supplement composition serves multiple health functions simultaneously - supporting blood glucose levels, cholesterol management, prostate health, and cellular division. This multi-functionality approach allows a single product to address various health needs that would otherwise require separate supplements, thereby improving adaptability without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If nutritional supplements are developed for human health, then human health benefits are achieved, but no supplements are available for enhancing companion animal health

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespecies applicabilityVSAvoidformulation development effort
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent formulates the nutritional supplement to be applicable to multiple species including both humans and companion animals (particularly dogs). By using naturally occurring plant ingredients with broad safety profiles and beneficial effects across species, the supplement achieves multi-species applicability without requiring separate formulation development for each species, thereby resolving the contradiction between versatility and manufacturing ease.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Mammalian nutritional supplements comprising individual quantities of turmeric, Peganum harmala, and Arum palaestinum are provided, which promote several aspects of human health, and canine health. Advantageously, the turmeric is present in an amount greater than that of Peganum harmala or Arum palaestinum, and the supplements may contain additional beneficial ingredients, such as β-sitosterol, vanillin, garlic, and Vitamin C.
