Patent number: 11382879Abstract: Methods of improving physical performance and endurance include administering a capsicum composition to a subject. More particularly the methods include administration of an effective amount of a capsicum composition including capsaicinoids alone and/or in combination with other nutrients for improvement in performance of physical activities. The methods described include administration of a capsicum composition to a subject undergoing physical activity to deliver daily dose of capsaicinoids in an effective amount. The methods include administering a capsicum composition to a subject in an effective amount to reduce blood lipids and oxidative stress. Methods for enhancing physical endurance and exhaustion time include administering an effective amount of a capsicum composition to a physically active subject, wherein body antioxidants are increased and muscle lactates are decreased, resulting in recovery from muscle fatigue arising due to such indoor and/or outdoor physical activities.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2017Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: OmniActive Health Technologies LimitedInventors: Jayant Deshpande, Khadija Ghanam, Vijaya Juturu

Patent number: 10668123Abstract: Capsicum compositions are described that include biologically active constituents non-capsaicinoids and capsaicinoids in a specific ratio are useful for the treatment and management of cardiometabolic syndrome and associated risk factors, in a subject in need thereof. The capsicum compositions include a capsicum extract which is prepared by extracting capsicum pods by using suitable polar and non-polar solvents. Capsicum compositions include non-capsaicinoid components like saponins and polyphenols such as flavonoids, which along with capsaicinoids effectively reduce risk factors of cardiometabolic syndrome and also reduce oxidative stress on vital body organs by reducing inflammatory and/or oxidative markers. The capsicum compositions inhibit pancreatic lipase enzyme and enhance lipolysis, when administered in an effective amount to a subject in need thereof. Capsicum compositions as described herein are prepared by human intervention and are safe for consumption.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2016Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: OmniActive Health Technologies LimitedInventors: Jayant Deshpande, Vijaya Juturu, Khadija Ghanam, Vandita Srivastava, Jyotish Srivastava, Sudhakar Akella

Patent number: 10568846Abstract: Compositions are described that include a betacryptoxanthin extract, rich in trans-betacryptoxanthin, which are prepared by a cost and time effective process and are for use in methods of enhancing cardio-respiratory fitness for physical performance and exercise endurance and to maintain healthy lung function. Betacryptoxanthin extract is prepared by a cost and time effective process of saponification and column chromatography, in which saponification cycle time, solvent amount, column separation time and silica amount are reduced, thus making it industrially viable. Betacryptoxanthin compositions increase exercise time, endurance performance, and lung capacity and maintain healthy lung and cardiovascular function during such physical activities. The compositions also improve physical performance, attenuate muscle fatigue, and enhance aerobic respiration utilization capacity.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2016Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: OmniActive Health Technologies LimitedInventors: Jayant Deshpande, Abhijit Bhattacharya, Vijaya Juturu, Khadija Ghanam, Vandita Srivastava, Vallabh Mulay

Patent number: 10532035Abstract: Methods herein are described for improvement in visual function by administering macular carotenoid compositions containing an effective daily dose, to a subject in need thereof. More particularly, methods herein are described and include use of the compositions herein by identifying a subject in need thereof, administering a daily dose of lutein and/or zeaxanthin isomers, comprised of meso-zeaxanthin and R,R zeaxanthin, alone or in combination thereof, the composition also including at least one food grade excipient, and evaluating visual performance. The subject is exposed to light of variable wavelengths and intensity and is suffering from visual fatigue. The composition improves contrast sensitivity, glare performance, photo stress recovery, and/or macular pigment optical density, and thus alleviates visual fatigue. The composition is safe for human and other animals for consumption and can be used for improvement in visual health in the subject, when administered in an effective amount.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2016Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: OmniActive Health Technologies LimitedInventors: Jayant Deshpande, Vijaya Juturu, Khadija Ghanam, Lynda Doyle

Salacia compositions, methods of treatment by their administration, and methods of their preparation
Patent number: 9849151Abstract: A Salacia composition described herein significantly reduces appetite, activates Hormone Sensitive Lipase, and manages a healthy lipid profile through inhibition of HMG-CoA Reductase enzyme. Salacia compositions described herein include of at least 12% of polyphenols, 2% of mangiferin and 1% of 25,26-oxidofriedelane-1,3-dione by weight of the composition in the form of extract. The composition is obtained by continuous solvent extraction, employing non-aqueous food grade solvents. Salacia compositions herein reduce appetite by about 18% of routine diet, when effective amounts are administered to a subject in need thereof. Effective management of a healthy lipid profile is thus possible with synergistic combination of reduction in energy intake, activation of Hormone Sensitive Lipase, and inhibition of HMG-CoA Reductase enzyme responsible for cholesterol metabolism.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2014Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: OmniActive Health Technologies (Canada) LimitedInventors: Jayant Deshpande, Khadija Ghanam, Stephen Ewart, Vijaya Juturu -
