Abstract: The present invention relates to dietary formulations for the slow release of water-soluble active ingredients. Said formulations comprise a coating obtained by evaporation from vinyl polymer dispersions not containing emulsifiers. The formulations can be advantageously included in an edible composition, including confectionery products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for manufacturing chewing gum, which said chewing gum comprises a core formed by at least one gum base and at least one sweetener. Said process comprises the steps of: a) mixing said gum base with at least one sweetener; b) processing said formulation to obtain a plurality of cores; c) placing said cores in contact with a quantity of water sufficient to wet at least the outer surface of each core; and d) coating the wetted outer surface of each core with a coating substance in particulate form.

Abstract: Oral hygiene formulations in the form of capsules made of gelatin or similar gelling substances suitable for the alimentary use, filled with an oil containing an antiseptic agent for the oral cavity.

Abstract: Disclosed are small pellets or “mini-dragées” with a core constituted by a gum base which is flavored and possibly sweetened with high-intensity sweeteners, and formulated without the sugars or polyols conventionally used in the manufacture of traditional chewing gums.

Abstract: Oral formulations in the form of chewing gum comprising: a. polyphosphates; b. hydrated silica; c. a source of fluoride ions; d. extracts or active ingredients of vegetable origin; e. optionally antibacterial/disinfectant agents. The compositions according to the invention are useful as adjuvants in dental hygiene, in particular to reduce tartar deposits.

Abstract: Oral formulations in the form of chewing gum comprising: a. polyphosphates; b. hydrated silica; c. a source of fluoride ions; d. a polymer derived from chitin, or other naturally occurring hydrocolloids or a mixture thereof; e. optionally extracts or active ingredients of vegetable origin and/or antibacterial/disinfectant agents.

Abstract: A chewing gum composition including an abrasive filler substance, the said abrasive filler substance being encapsulated in cross-linked alginate microspheres.
