Abstract:
Disclosed are nutritional aqueous emulsions having high fiber content. An aqueous emulsion comprising fat, protein, and carbohydrate, which includes from about 0.5% to about 9.0% by weight of a milk protein concentrate; from about 2.0% to about 6.0% by weight of glycerin, from about 2.3% to about 9.0% by weight of a fiber, and fructose and at least about 0.15% by weight of leucrose in a weight ratio of fructose to leucrose of at least 2:1, wherein the aqueous emulsion has a viscosity of less than about 300 centipoise at 20°C. These high fiber emulsions are stable and deliver desirable hedonics, rheologies, blunted glycemic profiles, and gastrointestinal tolerance. These high fiber emulsions provide beneficial features, including one or more of stability, desirable hedonics, rheology, and product performance, including a blunted glycemic response profile and or minimal or no gastrointestinal intolerance.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a lipid system, and methods for using such a lipid system, containing specific relative ratios of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids. The lipid system may be used independently or as a component of a nutritional product. A lipid system according to the present invention may contain omega-3 fatty acids, omega-6 fatty acids, and omega-9 fatty acids with the ratio of omega-6 fatty acids to omega-3 fatty acids preferably being between 0.25:1 and 3:1, and the ratio of omega-9 fatty acids to omega-3 fatty acids preferably being between 0.4:1 and 3:1. The present invention also relates to methods for administering a lipid system or a nutritional product containing the lipid system to an individual.
