Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a five-part food containing dietary fiber that is extremely easy to eat for children, the elderly, and even sick people.

Prior Art and its Problems Dietary fiber, or glutinous fiber, is an indigestible fiber component contained in food ingredients.

It is considered essential for maintaining the health of the human body. Dietary fiber: 1For example, rice bran, bran (wheat husk)
It is found in large amounts in the outer shells of grains, legumes, leafy vegetables, root vegetables, and fruits, and consuming an appropriate amount of these dietary fiber-rich foods not only improves bowel movements, but also normalizes cholesterol and can even lead to colon cancer. It is also said to be useful in preventing the development of. However, in recent years, it has been pointed out that various adverse effects are occurring due to the decrease in dietary fiber intake due to the Westernization of dietary habits, and the necessity of consuming dietary fiber has been emphasized. However, the above-mentioned foods are not only difficult to consume in today's dietary patterns, but also are no longer preferred, and there is a tendency for the intake of such foods to be increasingly insufficient. In particular, elderly and sick people have difficulty eating 9 meals a day even though they need 1 dietary fiber, and they are also unable to consume large amounts of food.
Many people don't get enough fiber. In addition, there is an increase in constipation among children, and some children have high cholesterol levels and symptoms similar to adult diseases, and the need for children to consume more dietary fiber has been emphasized. This is a difficult situation for several reasons. Therefore, processed foods (so-called health foods) aimed at consuming dietary fiber have been developed.

These existing products are dried dietary fiber as it is, pulverized and packaged as appropriate, formulated into granules or tablets, or molded into biscuits or sticks. Only products with low component contents were obtained, and it was difficult to mix the fiber components uniformly. Moreover, since the water content is extremely low, in order to consume these health foods, it is necessary to suspend them in water or drink them, or to take them together with water. Accordingly, liquids such as water and appropriate containers are required depending on each form, which is troublesome. However, as mentioned above, it has a low water content, so it has a poor texture and is often bland.The fact is that it is not widely accepted, not only by children, the elderly, and the sick, but also by the general public. Furthermore, if you consume large amounts of these existing health foods or if you consume them in a state of dehydration.

It has been pointed out that since gastric juice is rapidly absorbed in the stomach, the balance of gastric juice secretion is disrupted, causing symptoms of hyperacidity and discomfort, and that long-term ingestion can induce gastric ulcer. There is also a risk of shock due to rapid expansion.

Sufficient consideration must be given to how to use it. Therefore, it is widely accepted by the general public, including the elderly, the sick, and even children. Foods containing dietary fiber that are safe, easy to eat, and can be easily ingested are expected to improve bowel movements, normalize cholesterol, and even prevent the development of colorectal cancer. (considered to contribute).

Means for Solving the Problems In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the inventors of the present invention have conducted extensive research with the aim of obtaining a dietary fiber-containing food that is safe, easy to eat, and easy to consume.

By molding dietary fiber products into a jelly-like form, the dried dietary fiber can contain an appropriate amount of water and be evenly dispersed9, making it palatable and extremely easy for infants, the elderly, and sick people to eat. It is safe and does not irritate the stomach or intestines.

The present inventors discovered that it is possible to obtain an extremely useful processed food containing dietary fiber that can be taken anytime and anywhere as needed without preparing water or a container, leading to the completion of the present invention.

That is, the present invention provides a jelly-like food containing dietary fiber, which is characterized in that 2-dietary fiber is dispersed in the jelly-like food.

Dietary fibers that can be contained in the dietary fiber-containing jelly food of the present invention include 1, for example, rice fiber (Rice I
i) Wheat fiber (Bran.

Contains grain husks such as wheat husks), soya bean jam (soybean products), leafy vegetables, root vegetables, fruits, and other indigestible polysaccharides. These dietary fiber products can be used as they are to process the jelly-containing food of the present invention, regardless of the degree of dryness. The dietary fiber in the dietary fiber-containing jelly-like food of the present invention absorbs water sufficiently, so it is very palatable and easy to eat, so even if it is contained in a larger amount than conventional dietary fiber-containing health foods. good.

However, 1 usually takes into account the daily dietary fiber requirement and digestive function, and 10 to 50
f, preferably 15-309.

This amount is indicated as dietary fiber. In addition, the dietary fiber 9 may be powdered (.

In that case, it is desirable that the mesh size be 60 to 100'l mesh or less.

As can be easily understood by those skilled in the art, the dietary fiber-containing jelly food of the present invention can contain dietary fiber products other than the dietary fibers shown in this specification, and those containing them can also be 1 included within the scope of the present invention.

Jelly-forming media that can be used to disperse such dietary fibers include common jelly-like food processing materials such as gelatin, carrageenan and agar. Among these, carrageenan and agar are preferred because they are resistant to temperature changes (2) and have constant quality and are suitable for distribution.

To prepare the dietary fiber-containing jelly food of the present invention, two selected jelly-forming media are first heated and dissolved in water. Next, one or more dietary fiber products are added, stirred well, and when the mixture becomes uniform, it is poured into a container with an appropriate shape, sealed, and then processed by high-pressure heat sterilization or ordinary heat sterilization method. and commercialized. Here, high-pressure heat sterilization is a sterilization method that aims to kill Escherichia coli and heat-resistant spore bacteria, and usually has a steam pressure of 1.3.
The treatment consists of repeating the treatment several times every 1 to 2 days at a pressure of ~1.5 atm and a temperature of 120 to 150°C for 30 minutes or more. In addition, in the above manufacturing process, it is of course possible to add seasonings (acidulants, sugars, etc.), colorants, flavorings, and preservatives, etc., if necessary, which are usually added to this type of processed food. be.

Further, the shape and material of the container are arbitrary; for example, round or square pudding containers made of plastic, aluminum, paper, or metal can be used.

Alternatively, it can be processed into a can or molded into a tube.

Effects of the Invention Since the dietary fiber-containing jelly food of the present invention is processed by containing dietary fiber together with a sufficient amount of water,
When ingested, the fiber component does not absorb gastric juices or rapidly expand in the gastrointestinal tract, causing no risk of adverse effects, so it can be safely given to all kinds of people, including infants, the elderly, and the sick.

In addition, since the dietary fiber is uniformly dispersed in the jelly-like food, it has a good texture and can be eaten without any resistance. Moreover, since it does not require water or a container when ingesting it,
It is extremely convenient and can be used anytime and anywhere.

As mentioned above, the jelly-like food containing dietary fiber of the present invention is effective in compensating for the deficiency of dietary fiber, improving bowel movements, normalizing cholesterol, and further preventing the development of colon cancer. It greatly contributes to maintaining the health of people.
