| Research Abstract |
We studies active oxygen inhibition activity and bloodstream improvement effect of various foods. The in vivo effect of various juices squeezed from vegetables on bloodstream and blood platelet cohesion obstruction action about active oxygen inhibition ability, blood platelet cohesion obstruction activity, a blood fluidity improvement effect was investigated by a Supersonic Wave Rheometer, HEMA TRACER, and MC-FAN. In addition, we examined a DNA oxidation disorder restraint effect by these foods.
As a result, lemon showed a remarkable improvement effect for bloodstream and a blood platelet cohesion obstruction, but did not show a remarkable result in bloodstream with a Supersonic Wave Rheometer. The spicy food was able to expand blood vessel and increase of remarkable blood flow quantity.
These results suggest that the spicy foods may be a useful food for the improvement of whole blood rheology. Furthermore, a study about blood vessel expansion and an oxidation disorder restraint effect needed still more examination.
