Disclosed is a novel process for the preparation of novel raw material for functional foods containing bioactive materials, comprising activating the enzymes of edible plant seeds at a temperature of 10-35 °C for a period of 5-72 hours with oxygen and water until reaching the maximum nutritional value of the seeds, then the seeds together with their sprouts are treated in the aqueous solution or suspension or emulsion of physiologically or dietetically advantageous materials between 60-100 °C for a period of 10-180 minutes, and then the raw material containing the physiologically important biological materials in this enhanced concentration is separated, dried, optionally chopped and packed. The invention also relates to the products of the novel preparation process and their use. |
