| 20090117198 | VISCERAL FAT ACCUMULATION INHIBITOR, AND AGENT FOR PROMOTING THE INCREASE IN AND/OR INHIBITING THE DECREASE IN BLOOD ADIPONECTIN LEVEL - Disclosed is: a visceral fat accumulation inhibitor or a beverage/food for inhibiting the accumulation of a visceral fat, which comprises a fat globule membrane component as an active ingredient; or a agent or beverage/food for promoting the increase in and/or inhibiting the decrease in the blood adiponectin level, which comprises a fat globule membrane component as an active ingredient. A fat globule membrane component can inhibit the accumulation of a visceral fat, and/or can promote the increase in or inhibit the decrease in the blood adiponectin level. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090176693 | AGENT FOR MAINTAINING THE HARDNESS OF TOOTH STRUCTURE - Provided are an agent for maintaining hardness of tooth substances and a food or drink for maintaining the hardness of tooth substances, both of which include lactoferrin and iron-lactoferrin as an active ingredient. Lactoferrin and iron-lactoferrin suppress decalcification of enamel by use or ingestion thereof, and hence is effective for the prevention of dental caries. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20090253658 | Fat Accumulation Inhibitor - To provide a fat accumulation inhibitor and a food or drink for inhibiting fat accumulation, a visceral fat accumulation inhibitor and a food or drink for inhibiting visceral fat accumulation, or an agent for accelerating increase and/or inhibiting decrease of an adiponectin concentration in blood and a food or drink for accelerating increase and/or inhibiting decrease of an adiponectin concentration in blood. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090312291 | AGENT FOR PREVENTING INFECTION - An agent for preventing an infection with an influenza virus or a food or drink for preventing infection with an influenza virus is provided. It is the agent for preventing an infection with an influenza virus and a food or drink for preventing an infection with an influenza virus, which comprises a fat globule membrane component as an active ingredient. It is the agent for preventing an infection with an influenza virus and a food or drink for preventing an infection with an influenza virus, which comprises a sphigosine-containing phospholipid and/or a derivative thereof, particularly sphingomyelin, as an active ingredient. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100021444 | BLOOD-ADIPONECTIN-CONCENTRATION INCREASE-ACCELERATOR AND/OR DECREASE-INHIBITOR THEREOF AND VISCERAL FAT ACCUMULATION INHIBITOR - Disclosed is an agent for accelerating the increase in and/or preventing the decrease in the blood adiponectin level, or a food, beverage or animal feed for accelerating the increase in and/or preventing the decrease in the blood adiponectin level, which comprises a culture or cell of a lactic acid bacterium belonging to the genus | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100048493 | METHOD OF ADMINISTERING ORAL FLORA-IMPROVING AGENT, ANTIBACTERIAL AGENT AND GROWTH PROMOTER - It is intended to provide an oral flora-improving agent capable of forming a favorable flora in the oral cavity and a food or a drink for improving the oral flora. An oral flora-improving agent containing as an active ingredient a ganglioside and a food, a drink, or a feed for improving the oral flora containing the ganglioside exhibit an antibacterial effect on harmful bacteria in the oral cavity, which are undesirable from the viewpoint of decay and diseases such as periodontal disease, and a growth-improving effect on useful bacteria to be preserved in the oral cavity. Further, the ganglioside is efficaciously used as an active ingredient in an antibacterial agent or an antibacterial drink, food, or feed, a growth promoter, or a food, a drink, or a feed for promoting growth. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20100099848 | RANKL PRODUCTION INHIBITOR - The production of RANKL may be inhibited by orally ingesting a milk-derived basic protein. Thus, a RANKL production inhibitor containing a milk-derived basic protein fraction as an active ingredient; a therapeutic agent for a metabolic bone disease and a therapeutic agent for an immune disease each containing the RANKL production inhibitor; and a food/beverage and a feed each containing a specified amount of the RANKL production inhibitor and being characterized by inhibiting the production of RANKL have a remarkable effect of inhibiting the production of RANKL, can be ingested on a daily basis, and exhibit high safety even when being ingested over a long period. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100129333 | ANTI-FATTY LIVER AGENT - Disclosed is an anti-fatty liver agent comprising a cell and/or a culture obtained by culturing a lactic acid bacterium belonging to | 05-27-2010 |
