PURPOSE: To obtain an emulsion product which is low in energy value by comprising the emulsion product of an aq. phase contg. a water-dispersible lecithin extract enriched in phosphatidylcholine and a paraffin hydrocarbon-contg. oil phase added with a lipo-soluble lecithin extract.
CONSTITUTION: The product formed by adding the lecithin extract to an emulsion of water and the paraffin hydrocarbon consists of the emulsion of the aq. phase and the oil phase. The aq. phase contain the water-dispersible lecithin extract enriched in the phosphatidylcholine at 0.01 to 5% of the total weight of the water. The oil phase contains the paraffin hydrocarbon which is oily or solid at ordinary temp. The lipo-soluble lecithin extract is added to the oil phase at 0.01 to 5% of the weight of the hydrocarbon. The oil phase is prepd. to 5 to 90% of the total weight of the emulsion. The lipid is replaced with the hardly anabolitic hydrocarbon in such a manner, by which food, medicines or the like of low calorie are obtd.
