| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The folate intake from fortified foods was about 195 μg/day DFE (dietary folate equivalents) in the health promotion program designated the “Sakado Folate Project”, which aimed to achieve personalized nutritional intervention based on the MTHFR C677T genotype for the prevention of various diseases, and which was shown to be sufficient to keep the reference value of serum total homocysteine. Vitamin B2 was also suggested to be a factor that decreases homocysteine, meanwhile saturated fatty acid might be a factor to increase the homocysteine level. There were no significant increases in red blood cell folate levels at 6 months after the onset of this intervention in all MTHFR C677T genotypes. The fortified rice was used more frequency for fortified food. A tendency that meal is neglected was not observed.
