Rapeseed processing products as a component of flour-based food for gerontological purpose

The use of rapeseed oil and flour obtained by processing of peeled rapeseed kernels as a source of valuable nutritional and biologically active substances needed in the diet of the elderly to maintain their health and active longevity is justified. A sugar cookie formula with the use of rapeseed products has been developed. The technology of cookies which allows one to obtain a dough with the necessary properties and finished products of the required quality is proposed. The consumption of cookies will increase the level of satisfaction of the body's requirements for a complete protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids, including omega 3, dietary fiber, B vitamins and tocopherols, dietary minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur, iron, copper, zinc, manganese, cobalt and others. The use of rapeseed flour will enrich cookies with such minor nutritional components as rape indoles, which have antioxidant and antitumor activity, stimulating the detoxification processes of the body. The introduction of rapeseed products into the composition of sugar cookies allows us to consider it as a gerontological product that slows down the aging process.
