Formulations and particle size descriptions are provided for an ingestible powder for use in an aerosolizing delivery apparatus. Particle formulations are designed to be aerosolized for delivery to a user's mouth. Formulations are can be designed for optimal delivery and payload performance, flavoring, comfort and sensory experience to a recipient. Formulations are provided for energy supplements, pharmaceutical compounds, over-the-counter pharmaceutical compounds, sleep-aid compounds, weight-loss compounds, and oral health compounds.

An aerosolizing delivery device can include a carriage configured to be detachably connected to a mouthpiece and to receive and support an aerosolizable powder-filled cartridges in a desired position relative to the mouthpiece. The carriage can include: a housing defining a reservoir and a carriage outlet, the carriage outlet configured to permit fluid communication between the reservoir and an exterior of the carriage. A surface of the housing can be configured to define a bypass port between the housing and a surface of the mouthpiece when the carriage is assembled with the mouthpiece to form the delivery device.

A universal flow diverter (650) is provided that can be connected to the mouthpiece (606) of an aerosol delivery device. The aerosol delivery device may be an inhaler of the type that receives and supports a cartridge designed to provide metered doses of a medicine. The aerosol delivery device includes a mouthpiece (606) defining a fluid flow passage extending between an inlet (607) to an outlet (608). The flow diverter (650) includes a connector (652) used to detachably connect the flow diverter to the mouthpiece (650), and a deflection member (610) extending from the connector (652). When the flow diverter (650) is connected to the aerosol delivery device, the deflection member (610) is configured to redirect aerosolized particles exiting the outlet (608) of the mouthpiece (606) toward sides of a user's mouth.
Aerosolizing delivery apparatuses can include cartridges configured to be detachably connected to a delivery device. The cartridges can include: a housing defining a reservoir and a cartridge outlet, the cartridge outlet configured to permit fluid communication between the reservoir and an exterior of the cartridge. A surface of the housing can be configured to define a bypass port between the housing and a surface of the delivery device when the cartridge is assembled with the delivery device.

Aerosolized food products can be of sufficient size to deposit in the mouth without easily entering into the respiratory tract and of small enough size so as to allow for suspension in air. An apparatus (110) incorporating an aerosol generating device and food products can allow for the aerosolization of the food products and the delivery thereof in a matter suitable for inhalation or deposition and subsequent ingestion. The food delivery apparatus (110) represents a novel means of delivering food to the mouths of humans and animals. Indeed, the apparatus (110) of the invention is designed to produce, transport, and direct aerosolized food particles of sufficient size to deposit in the mouth without substantial exposure or entry into the respiratory tract and of small enough size so as to allow for suspension in air.
