Effects of beta-conglycinin intake on circulating FGF21 levels and brown adipose tissue activity in Japanese young men
Background Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity has beneficial effects on body composition and glucose metabolism. A previous study reported that beta-conglycinin intake induced postprandial fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) secretion, thereby promoting adipose tissue thermogenesis in mice. Since it has not been evaluated whether beta-conglycinin intake is associated with induced FGF21 secretion and BAT thermogenesis in humans, the current…
P2-144 An evaluation of dietary and exercise intervention for hypertensive men
Introduction This study evaluated the effect of a 6-month health intervention program conducted from 2003 to 2008 for hypertensive men in Japan. Methods The subjects, volunteers aged 50–75 years, were divided into 45 and 25 men for the intervention and control groups, respectively. We performed dietary and exercise education five times for the intervention group and conducted two health checkups for both groups. We compared lifestyle, and physica…
SP1-74 The prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia and a comparison of the intake of iron among pregnant women with the dietary reference intakes for Japanese
Introduction In order to determine the prevalence of anaemia and to explore the associations between iron status and intake in the process of pregnancy, we compared the dietary and total intake of iron with the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for Japanese in a population of pregnant women in the suburbs. Methods A total of 109 pregnant women participated in the survey and were measured for blood haemoglobin (Hb). For 42 (mean age ±SD: 30.2±4.5) …
