Abstract
An edible composition for ingestion by mammals, especially by humans, that includes a fat-based blend containing: (a) at least one triglyceride-based fat, (b) a low level of diglycerides, for example, less than 3% by weight of diglycerides, e.g., diacylglycerol (DAG), and (c) at least 2% and in some instances at least 5% by weight of a mixture of fatty acid Ester Phytosterols (EPs), in which at least 65% by weight of the fatty acid EPs are Monounsaturated (oleate)-Ester Phytosterols (MEPs), and less than 20% by weight of the fatty acid EPs are Polyunsaturated (linoleate+alpha-linolenate)-Ester Phytosterols (PEPs). The increased proportion of MEPs and decreased proportions PEPs and diglycerides substantially increase the oxidative stability index (OSI), shelf life, and health benefits of the above mixture of fatty acid EPs, while providing an advantageous melting temperature and desirable mouth feel for this mixture of fatty acid EPs.
