| Research Abstract |
We conducted a prospective cohort study. A total of 10,000 participants living in communities, free of prior diagnosis of cardiovascular disease completed health check-up examination and food frequency questionnaire. About intake of mikan (mandarin oranges), daily intake of high season was negatively associated with risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality as was daily intake of annual average. Further we found U-shaped risk curve. Therefore we thought there were upper limit of adequate intake for mikan. In addition, when participants of 65 years old had a cognitive function comparable, if their atherosclerosis of carotid artery by ultrasound measurement were stronger, there was more decrease of those function at 5 years later. In conclusion, prevention of atherosclerosis up to 65 years oldwas important.
