PROCESSO PARA OBTER UM COMPOSTO MIMETICO GRAXO

摘要

Novel fat mimetic compositions are disclosed as reduced calorie food components. These compositions comprise complex linked esters including two polyfunctional ethers or esters linked by a polycarboxy function having a common aliphatic group. These complex linked esters may be partially broken down in the body to produce digestion residues which are substantially non-digestible themselves and are sufficiently hydrophilic to enable the digestion residues to be incorporated in the normal stool. These fat mimetic compounds are useful as replacements for fats and oils for most food applications.
