Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Japanese have the longest longevity in the world, and Japanese food is an excellent meal. We investigated how reactions occurred in Japanese by ingesting normal portion size and ordinary doses rather than experimental items and excess doses. In order to reflect on daily life, tests were conducted using usual foods rather than special foods. Changes in serum metabolites after ingestion of low GI and high GI foods were examined and the influence of dietary intake on the living body was examined too. Focusing on the energy density (calorie density), we commercialized “Densiet” lunch box as Japanese food of low energy density, in line with the rule of meals with low energy but high satisfaction and satiety. We also conducted dissemination activities through magazines, lectures, television, newspapers and the Internet.
