Abstract
Abstract concentrated emulsion of non-absorbable liquid polyol polyesters and high melting fatty acids or esters thereof in water can be diluted to a highly palatable beverage. The emulsifier system comprises a polyglycerol ester and an aliphatic glycol ester. The beverage provides the hypercholesteremic or obese patient with a highly agreeable vehicle for his daily requirement of non-absorbable liquid polyol polyester.

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
194 words
A dietary beverage concentrate; comprising, an emulsion of: (a) from about 35% to about 60% of a non-absorbable non-digestible liquid polyol fatty acid polyester having at least 4 fatty acid ester groups, wherein the polyol is selected from the group consisting of sugars and sugar alcohols containing from 4 to 8 hydroxyl groups and wherein each fatty acid group has from about a to about 22 carbon atoms; and (b) from about 10% to about 50% by weight of the polyol fatty acid polyester of a fatty acid having a melting point of 37°C or higher, or an ester of such fatty acids; (c) from about 0.5% to about 3% of a polyclycerol fatty acid amulsifier having an average of from 2 to 10 glycerol units and from 1 to 3 fatty acyl groups of from 1E to 18 carbon atoms per glycerol unit; and (d) from about 0.5% to about 3% of a fatty acid mono ester of an aliphatic ciol having from about 3 to about 5 carbon atoms in the diol moiety; and (e) from about 5% to about l5% of a saccharice; and (f) the balance comprising water and flavorings.
