Description

Technical field

The utility model refers to a new isotonic beverage designed to restore fluid in the body and at the same time compensate for the loss of electrolytes, sugars, vitamins resulting from dehydration during training, work or residence under severe temperature conditions, or dehydration due to disease conditions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Certain groups of people, including factory workers, farmers, athletes, may lose one to two liters of sweat per hour when dressed. Chronically ill and other groups of patients may lose fluid; more than they absorb. Newcomers to the desert, with their clothes and heavy luggage, can take up to 41 per hour.

With sweating profusely, there are a number of serious symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, lightheadedness, fatigue, muscle cramps. Most symptoms occur individually.

Thus, people who sweat lose not only water, but more importantly sugars, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients. Each is vital for cell function, including brain function.

Drinking water alone cannot recover lost nutrients and can also cause stomach cramps due to the different osmotic properties of water on the one hand and gastric fluid on the other, as well as the time required to assimilate water from the body.

Various beverages have been created for the recovery of body fluid and lost nutrients, with appropriate osmotic characteristics - the so-called. isotonic drinks.

Isotonic beverages generally contain mineral salts of macronutrients. May contain energy sources, vitamins, trace minerals and tonic agents.

For example, in US 2009148566 (A) describes a beverage containing 4 to 10% carbohydrate source, 30 to 40 mEq / L sodium, 11 to 18 mEq / L chloride, 3 to 20 mEq / L potassium and water . The carbohydrate source is a mixture of at least three components, including fructose and the other two components selected from sucrose, glucose, maltose, maltodextrin, galactose, trehalose, fructo-oligosaccharides, beta-gpucan and trioses.

In recent years, it has been suggested to include in various drinks and other forms of nutritional supplements for athletes and remedies against the observed in many cases of intense training oxidative stress, which occurs due to the formation of free radicals in the oxidative processes in the trainer's muscles.

KR 200900202 (A) describes a sports ionic beverage containing from 0.001 to 5.00 wt. % electrolyte selected from the group consisting of sodium ion, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride ion, citric acid and lactic acid, and from 0.00001 to 10 wt. % coenzyme Q 10.

EP 0 681434 (B1) discloses a rehydrating beverage that contains in a single dose a) 1 to 100 g at least one carbohydrate, b) 2 to 2500 mg at least one electrolyte, c) 0.1 to 750 mg at most -Many ammonia neutralizer,

d) at least one energy source selected by the group: 1-2'000 microg of group B vitamins; 10-40'000 microg L-carnitine, creatine and choline and 1-100 mg branched chain amino acids;

e) at least one antioxidant, preferably selected from beta-carotene in an amount of 2 microg - 200 mg, vitamin C in an amount of 10-250 mg, vitamin E in an amount of 8-301.U., selenium in an amount of 10-300 microg ; f) 1 to 30 mg membrane stabilizing agent; g) 1 to 200 [mu] g of at least one neuromuscular fiber enhancer and water, in an amount sufficient to dissolve said components and to prepare a beverage ready to drink. Various sugars, monosaccharides and oligosaccharides are used as carbohydrates as component a). Component b) is an electrolyte, preferably selected from the mineral salts of elements of groups I and II of the Periodic Table of the inorganic and organic salts of sodium, potassium, calcium and / or magnesium.

However, it is important to create a new combination of electrolytes and other essential substances, such as carbohydrates, vitamins, energy sources, which is more effective in replacing lost liquids, with a very good electrolyte balance, with an optimal osmotic characteristic, maximum absorption that is more effective in combating oxidative stress.

The technical nature of the utility model

These problems are solved with a new composition of an isotonic beverage that contains carbohydrates: fructose and / or glucose, and / or dextrose

- 70-90 g / Ι, electrolytes: calcium salts, preferably selected from calcium phosphate and calcium aspartate - 288 - 352 mg / 1, magnesium salts, preferably magnesium carbonate, 90-110 mg / 1, potassium salts , preferably potassium chloride - 160-200 mg / l, citric acid alkaline salt, preferably sodium and / or potassium citrate - 210

- 254 mg / l, chlorides, preferably sodium chloride

- 630 - 730 mg / l, phosphates, preferably sodium orthophosphate - 620 - 756 mg / l vitamins: vitamin C - 60-72 mg / l vitamin B - 2.8 - 3.4 mg / l vitamin B6 - 3, 4 - 4,2 mg / 1 vitamin B12 - 100 - 120 microg / 1 vitamin B9 - 25,2 - 30,8 microg / 1 vitamin B2 - 160 - 220 microg / 1 energy sources in the amount of 100 400 mg / 1: selected from salts of L-carnitine, salts of creatine, inositol or phytin, taurine, glucuronolactone or combinations thereof;

an antioxidant selected from rosveratrol - 0.5 - 5.0 mg / l lycopene - 1.0 - 4.0 mg / l, lactoferrin - 20 - 50 mg / l, alpha - lipoic acid - 50 - 200 mg / l, selenium - 15-40 microg / 1 vitamin A - 0.2 - 0.6 mg / 1 vitamin E -10-30 mg / 1 standardized dried ginkgo biloba extract, chokeberry, blackberry, raspberry, bobbin teeth 50 - 200 mg / 1 or combinations thereof and water.

The new isotonic beverage created is more efficient in replacing the lost liquids, a very good electrolyte balance and optimum osmotic characteristics are achieved. Substances, in particular salts with very good absorption, are included. It has high antioxidant activity. Pleasant organolepticism was achieved. The isotonic beverage according to the utility model extends the variety of isotonic beverages to the options of choice according to need. Products with defined composition and proven harmlessness and side effects were used.

Substances that play the role of energy sources can be added in such quantities as to produce low, medium and high energy isotonic beverages to be used at the choice, need and desire of consumers.

Of the known antioxidants are selected those that have not only high antioxidant activity but also other properties that are particularly beneficial to athletes and in general in heavy physical activity, and which can be successfully incorporated into the composition of an isotonic beverage, where not to be lost but to emphasize their beneficial properties.

Rosveratrol, representing 3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene, may be a pure product of natural origin or synthetic. Among its known properties and activities, in addition to its high antioxidant activity, there are some that make it particularly suitable for inclusion in nutritional supplements for athletes, such as increasing physical endurance. It cleanses the body and is especially suitable for problems with the urinary system.

Lycopene is a carotenoid with a powerful antioxidant effect. Unlike beta-carotene, there is no expressed προ-vitamin A activity. It is thought to have almost twice the antioxidant potential of beta-carotene and 100 times more potent in capturing oxygen than Vitamin E. It is particularly successful to include it in the drink along with Vitamin E, which can enhance the antioxidant activity accumulated.

Lactoferrin is an iron-carrying natural glycoprotein. It plays an important role in the nonspecific protection of the body. Strong antioxidant, increases resistance

1509 Ul of the body. It is obtained from colostrum and milk by native cooling and lyophilization.

Alpha-lipoic acid is a coenzyme required for carbohydrate metabolism in the biochemical reactions of the Krebs cycle. It is a powerful antioxidant. It has two unique characteristics that no other antioxidant has. First, alpha lipoic acid is soluble in both aqueous and lipophilic environments, i. E. manifests its effect by penetrating the entire body. Second, it assists in the absorption and recycling of other antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, beta carotene, coenzyme Q 10. Alpha lipoic acid protects the cell membrane from the harmful effects of free radicals. It helps to convert carbohydrates into energy, making sugars first pyruvate, the first step in converting glucose into energy. Studies show that glucose burning is one of the indications for the use of alpha lipoic acid in type 2 diabetes and its complications (cataracts, retinopathy, cardiomyopathy, neuropathy). The human body can produce, but in small amounts, alpha lipoic acid. It can be added with food (potatoes, yeast, liver, red meat) or as a dietary supplement. As a pharmaceutical product, it is produced synthetically.

Standardized dry extracts of ginkgo biloba, chokeberry, blackberry, raspberry, grandmother's teeth are also known for their antioxidant effects, but have been found to have other activities that make them suitable for use by athletes, especially after heavy training. When phytochemicals are included in the isotonic beverage, it is not necessary to add vitamin C and vitamin A.
