Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the relationship between alcohol intake and both adiponectin production and insulin resistance (including quality of life and lifestyle-related factors) in general Japanese population. It was found that light alcohol intake by elderly individuals tended to be associated with low adiponectin levels. Low adiponectin levels are known to be associated with lifestyle-related diseases, but high adiponectin levels in elderly individuals have been shown to be associated with high mortality risk. Thus, our results suggest that light alcohol intake inhibits the development of lifestyle-related diseases and improves prognosis for elderly individuals.
