Abstract
A nutritional composition including an oxidizable component and a water-soluble plant extract is provided. The water-soluble plant extract includes rosmarinic acid and has a total phenolic content, such that a ratio of the total phenolic content to the rosmarinic acid is between about 1.1:1 to about 3.5:1. A method of reducing off-flavors and aromas in a nutritional composition having an oxidizable component is also provided.
Claims35
A nutritional composition comprising:
- (a) a protein;
- (b) a carbohydrate;
- (c) a fat;
- and
- (d) a water-soluble plant extract comprising rosmarinic acid and having a total phenolic content;
- wherein at least one of the protein, the carbohydrate, and the fat includes an oxidizable component;
- and
- wherein a ratio of the total phenolic content to the rosmarinic acid ranges from about 1.1:1 to about 3.5:1.

A method of reducing off-flavors and aromas in a liquid nutritional composition, the method comprising:
- (a) preparing an aqueous protein slurry comprising at least one protein and a water-soluble plant extract, wherein the water-soluble plant extract is extracted with a solvent system having an octanol-water partition coefficient of no more than 0.5;
- (b) preparing an aqueous carbohydrate slurry comprising at least one carbohydrate;
- (c) preparing an oil blend comprising a fat having an oxidizable component;
- and
- (d) mixing together the aqueous protein slurry, the aqueous carbohydrate slurry, and the oil blend to form the liquid nutritional composition.
