Abstract

A gummy includes an inner portion, a formulation having a dispersion including an active ingredient contained in the inner portion; and an outer portion which surrounds the inner portion. The active ingredient includes one or more nutrients such as cannabinoids and dietary supplement. The dispersion includes one or more of a liposome emulsion; a nanoemulsion, and a microemulsion, each containing the active ingredient. A method of making such gummy having the cannabinoids and/or dietary supplement formulation in the inner portion thereof includes setting up a central filling apparatus having a shell syrup hopper, a central filling hopper, and a manifold branch and nozzle mechanism; filling the shell syrup hopper with the base material; filling the central filling hopper with the formulation; dispensing the base material and the formulation in the manifold branch and nozzle mechanism, and further into the gummy mold; and extracting the gummy from the gummy mold.

Abstract

A method of making dietary supplement compositions includes generating an aqueous phase (A1) having one or more dietary supplement nutrients (DSN1), generating an oil phase (O1), performing a first homogenizing step by mixing A1 and O1 thereby forming A1/O1 composition, performing a second homogenizing step by mixing the A1/O1 composition and the further added DSN2, performing a third homogenizing step by mixing the A1/O1/DSN2 composition and a first flavor (F1), performing a fourth homogenizing step by mixing the A1/O1/DSN2/F1 composition and a gum dispersed with glycerin (GG), and performing a fifth homogenizing step by mixing the A1/O1/DSN2/F1/GG composition and the second flavor (F2) thereby forming dietary composition A1/O1/DSN2/F1/GG/F2. The A1/O1/DSN2/F1/GG/F2 composition is dispersion in which actives are incorporated in liposomal vesicles which may have a barrier coating of a polymer. A method of making gummies includes surrounding A1/O1/DSN2/F1/GG/F2 composition (inner portion) with an outer portion formed of shell syrup.

Abstract

A dietary supplement composition having a dispersion including a plurality of liposomal vesicles, includes an active ingredient, phospholipid contained in the liposomal vesicles, and a coating material. The active ingredient is incorporated within the liposomal vesicles having a barrier coating of the coating material including one of a biopolymer, polyethylene glycol, chitosan and a combination thereof. The coating material is free flowing in the dispersion such that the liposomal vesicles are surrounded by the coating material without being attached to the liposomal vesicles and without forming part of the liposomal vesicles and without affecting weight of the liposomal vesicles. The dispersion is filtered using a tangential flow technique, which washes out outer periphery of liposomal vesicles for removing inactive ingredients contained outside the liposomal vesicles without washing out the coating material surrounding the liposomal vesicles. The dietary supplement composition may be incorporated in gummies, chocolates, atomizers or powders.
