摘要

The invention pertains a water dispersible, preferably a powder composition consisting of water extractible bioactive components of exclusively fruit or vegetable or plant origin obtainable by a process which comprises: a) subjecting a selected fruit or vegetable or plant material to homogenisation in weak alkaline conditions and at moderate temperature; b) separating the liquid extract from the homogenised mass and subsequently bringing it to neutrality; and c) eventually concentrating or drying, preferably freeze drying the neutralized liquid extract. The composition can be used as primary composition in the preparation of e.g. a food product for oral administration, a food supplement, a pet food product, a pet food supplement, a cosmetic preparation or a pharmaceutical preparation.
