NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENT FORMULATIONS FOR INCLUSION IN FOODS AND FORTIFIED FOODS COMPRISING SUCH SUPPLEMENTS

摘要

The present invention relates to formulations adapted from the original AREDS formula that are suitable for introduction into a measured amount or volume of a food as well as to foods containing these formulations. These fortified foods are expected to provide patients afflicted with or at risk for developing macular degeneration or other age-related deficiencies with alternative and more palatable sources of the ingredients of the original AREDS formula than those currently available in the market.
