| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our research purpose is to, using molecular nutritional medicine, elucidate metabolic problems in athletes and improve their performance and prevent medical illness. We have identified associations between metabolic disorders and clinical symptoms and performance through molecular biology experiments, mathematical modeling analyses, and molecular nutritional analysis of clinical data. We also retrospectively confirmed the ameliorative effects of molecular nutritional interventions on top athletes. These results contribute to improved health and performance in athletes and provide essential insights into nutritional status assessment and disease prevention. We have also conducted theoretical studies on intracellular calcium dynamics and short-chain fatty acids in stool, which could represent a new step forward in athlete nutrition and metabolism.
