Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined the heart rate variability, postural balance and taste sensitivity in college students to investigate those interrelations and factors inducing subclinical malfunction of autonomic nerve activity. In addition, dietary intakes, lifestyle habit and physical activity were evaluated together with stress, mood and anxiety states in each subject. The findings suggested that hypofunction of equilibrium or gustation is associated with the parameters of the sympathetic or parasympathetic nerve activity; furthermore, the taste sensitivity has relation to nutrient intake such as zinc and individual physical activity. For the younger generation, the assessment of autonomic nerve function and sensory function may contribute to improve eating and lifestyle habits through becoming conscious of actual stress condition or mental and physical disorder.
