MODELING OF A COMPLEX FOOD SUPPLEMENT FROM ARCTIC PLANT RAW MATERIALS WITH ANTIOXIDANT AND IMMUNO-CORRECTING PROPERTIES

Abstract

The study of the micronutrient composition of the Arctic plant raw materials showed the presence of a large number of biologically active substances, as well as the possibility of including them in the composition of functional foods as functional ingredients. Many wild plants are marked by the fact that the composition includes a large amount of dietary fiber, a large number of flavonoids that are not synthesized in the human body, which are well known for their antioxidant activity.

During the period of economic sanctions against Russia, there is a shortage of food additives at catering enterprises for the production of quality products. One of the ways to solve this problem is the modeling of complex functional food supplements from valuable arctic vegetable raw materials.

This paper presents the development of a complex food additive from arctic plant raw materials containing a significant amount of valuable biological substances and, above all, dietary fiber. The developed supplement in the form of microcapsules has better bioavailability, contains more nutrients due to the presence of a capsule shell. It has antioxidant and immunocorrective properties and is intended to improve consumer properties, have a beneficial effect on the body, and increase resistance. Functional meals containing this nutritional supplement can be used primarily for the indigenous and visiting population of the Arctic zone. The presence of phenolic compounds in the composition contributes to the regulation of the protective and adaptive potential of the body.
