The present invention relates to modified food products, and especially low homocysteinogenic dairy products, where the modification comprises enriching the food product with Vit B6, and optionally Folic acid, B12, and Mg. High methionine, and high methionine: B6 ratio foods, as well as low B6 intake can cause methionine load with resulting increase of hyper HCY. Folic acid is another major factor in reducing HCY. Hyper homocysteine (HCY) has been recently defined as an independent risk factor for CVD (Cardio Vascular Diseases) and can cause damage in other conditions i.e. mental, skeletal and Immunological. |
