Abstract EN
Functional foods provide health benefit beyond basic nutrition.
Functional foods fortified with plant ingredients are well known.
Ayurveda (Indian System of Medicine) has found several ways in which the medicinal benefits of herbs can be conveyed via certain foods as carriers.
Milk is one such carrier which has been effectively used to deliver phytochemicals for targeted health benefits.
Indian Kudzu or Pueraria tuberosa Linn.
(Fabaceae) is an important medicinal plant of Ayurveda, and experiments suggest that it enhances the health benefits of milk when taken with milk as a carrier.
Different milk combinations with P.
tuberosa were prepared by homogenizing pasteurized toned milk with its ethanolic and hot water extracts and their stability with reference to pH and coagulation was studied over a period of 15 days.
The combinations were also analyzed for puerarin, the major isoflavone C-glucoside present in P.
tuberosa, through high-performance liquid chromatography using photo diode array detector.
It was observed that there was no precipitate formation and the pH also did not change during the study period indicating their physical stability under the experimental conditions.
Also there was no significant change in the content of puerarin during the study period, thereby indicating the chemical stability of the samples.
These studies will be useful for developing milk nutraceuticals fortified with Indian Kudzu which has the potential to be included as an ingredient in health and functional foods.
