Disease associated with microorganisms are far from resolved by current therapeutics. One of effective approach to health maintenance and disease control is the use of dietary bacterial and carbohydrate supplements. This comprises use of probiotics and prebiotics. Probiotics mean the live microorganisms, which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. Prebiotics mean a nondigestible food ingredient that beneficially affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria that can Improve the host health. Especially, probiotics has the relation which is close with innate immunity and adaptive immunity. And probiotics has the clinical value with many disease like lactose intolerance, constipation, acute gastroenteritis, food hypersensitivity and allergy, atopic dermatitis, crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, pelvic radiotherapy, intestinal inflammation and chemical exposure, colon cancer, inhibitory effect of Helicobacter pylori and lowering the level of cholesterol. We use jointly korean medicine and probiotics and it has the more therapeutic effect in the many disease.

Probiotics stabilize intestinal microflora, reduce constipation, reduce decay by inhibiting harmful bacteria, and prevent diseases. Probiotics have also been studied for their possible roles in immune activation, treatment of cancer, remediation of cholesterol, treatment of diabetes, alleviation of allergies, and relief of lactose intolerance. However, recent data concerning the side effects of probiotics have prompted debate regarding their efficacy and safety. Major adverse events associated with probiotics are gastrointestinal symptoms, such as diarrhea, gastrointestinal disorders, and vomiting, along with skin rash and urticaria. Probiotics occasionally cause sepsis in infants with poor immunity and elderly people with severe diseases. In contrast to previous studies that described the efficacy of probiotics in intestinal regulation, some recent studies have reported that the activity of intestinal microbes becomes weak as a result of the influx of probiotics. The data indicate that the safety of probiotics is not guaranteed and that further investigations are needed.

인슐린 작용을 강화시키는 LMWCr의 발견과 크롬 결핍과 관련 있는 포도당 불내성(glucose intolerance)이 크롬 투여 시 반응을 보여준 임상적 증명 이후, 크롬은 확실한 필수 영양소로 인식되고 보조제로 사용되고 있다. 시험관 실험에서 고농도의 3가 크롬을 배양 세포에 노출 시, 일부 연구 결과에서 염색체이상 유발과 변이원성 효과가 발견되긴 하였으나 이는 비타민 A, D, 니코틴산, 셀레늄 등과 같은 많은 다른 영양소의 과잉 섭취 시 독성 효과를 나타내는 정도로 해석되며, 시험관 실험 결과들이 발암성의 증거로 해석되지는 않는다. 3가 크롬을 경구 보조제로 투여된 임상 치료에서 환자들은 독성효과를 보이지 않았으며, 혈장 내 크롬 수치가 비 투여된 사람들에 비하여 조금 높았다. 크롬을 TPN 형태로 투여받은 환자들에게서도 우려했던 신체ㆍ정신적 효과와의 상관 관계가 없었으며 신기능부전을 나타낸 경우는 신장 독성을 주는 약들을 함께 복용한 경우로서, 우려되는 부작용은 없는 것으로 인정된다. 임상학적, 실험적으로 사용된 3가 크롬의 용량은 ESADDI 규정된 범위 50∼200 $\mu$g/day에서 전혀 독성을 나타내지 않았으며, 일반적인 사용에 기준이 될 것이다. EPA는 모든 관련 자료들을 검토한 후에 크롬의 참고용량 (RfD) 수치를 70 mg/day로 결론지었으며, 다른 영양소들의 용량과 비교했을 때 대단히 넓은 수치이다. 3가 크롬은 당뇨병, 임신성 당뇨병, 인슐린 내성, 비정상적 지방대사를 개선시키기 위한 영양소로서 가능성을 가진다. 또한 크롬의 보충은 제II형 당뇨병과 다양한 심혈관계 질환을 예방하거나 치료하는데 가장 유용한 것으로 밝혀졌다. 앞으로는 크롬 보조제 사용 시, 일부 연구자들이 3가 크롬 1000 $\mu$g/day의 안전성을 입증한 것과 같이 용량을 늘려 임상실험을 시도한 후 안전과 효능을 증명하는 것이 필요하다.

본 연구는 폐기되는 대두박으로부터 분리한 사포닌이 고 지방식이로 유도한 비만마우스의 체중, 지질 함량, 지질대사 및 내당능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 4주령의 C57BL/6 마우스(n=48)를 1주일간 적응시킨 후 정상식이를 급여한 정상군, 고지방을 급여한 고지방대조군, 고지방식이에 대두박 사포닌을 수준별(0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, w/w)로 급여한 군들과 양성대조물질인 가르시니아 캄보지아(1.0%, w/w)를 급여한 군으로 나누어 9주간 사육하였다. 체중증가량과 내장지방 (부고환 지방과 신장주변 지방) 무게는 고지방대조군에 비하여 대두박 사포닌 급여 수준에 의존적으로 낮아졌다. 캄보지아는 식이섭취량을 억제시킨 반면, 대두박 사포닌은 비만유도 마우스의 식이섭취량에 유의적인 영향을 미치지 않았다. 혈장 중의 렙틴 함량은 고지방대조군에 비하여 대두박사포닌 보충군에서 낮았다. 대두박 사포닌 급여수준에 관계 없이 혈장의 중성지질과 총 콜레스테롤 함량은 유의적으로 낮아진 반면, 사포닌 급여 수준에 의존적으로 변으로 중성지질 배설은 유의적으로 높았다. 한편, 캄보지아는 변의 지질 함량에 유의적인 영향을 미치지 않았다. 간조직 중의 중성지방과 콜레스테롤 함량 역시 고지방대조군에 비하여 대두박사포닌 급여군(1.5%)에서 유의적으로 개선되었으나 캄보아지군의 콜레스테롤 함량은 증가되었다. 고지방식이는 정상 식이에 비하여 혈당과 내당능을 유의적으로 증가시켰으나 대두박 사포닌과 캄보지아 급여는 혈당과 식후 혈당 변화를 효과적으로 개선하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 1.5% 대두박사포닌 급여군의 혈당은 정상군 수준이었다. 9주 동안 고지방식이 급여는 간조직 중의 지방산 합성과 산화효소활성을 모두 증가시켰는데 합성효소의 상승이 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 대두박 사포닌은 간조직 중의 지방산 합성과 산화효소활성을 정상화하였다. 이와 같이 대두박 사포닌은 비만유도 마우스에서 변으로의 중성지질 배설을 증가시키고 간조직에서 지질대사 관련 효소활성을 조절함으로써 체중조절과 혈당개선에 효과적이었다.

Dairy products are important diet source for human because of their balanced essential nutrients along with various vitamins and minerals. However, lactose in milk can result in diarrhea to some consumers with lactose intolerance. Soy milk has no lactose and is suitable as a substitute for diary milk in accordance with recent trend of replacing animal food with vegetable food. However, polysaccharides in soy milks are difficult for humans to digest, leading to flatulence. These polysaccharides can be decomposed into monosaccharides by lactic acid bacteria, and fermentation can improve food quality. Because mungbean has higher carbohydrate content than soybean, mung milk can be easily fermented than soy milk, resulting in vege yogurt with higher contents of lactic acid. In this study, fermentation characteristics of vege yogurt were analyzed with different ratio of soy milk and mung milk (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% and 0%+sucrose) and different fermentation time (0, 8, and 16 hours). In general, pH decreased as fermentation time increased. Overall, pH significantly decreased when the mung milk content in yogurt increased. All samples showed higher titratable acidity after fermentation and soy yogurt (mungbean 0%, 16 hours) with sucrose showed the highest value (6.825%). As fermentation time increase, viscosity increased. In 8 and 16 hours, mung milk yogurt (mungbean 100%) showed the lowest viscosity while soy milk yogurt (soybean 100%) with no sucrose showed the highest viscosity after 16 hours of fermentation. The contents of crude protein, crude fat and ash were measured for nutritional analysis. Soy milk (mungbean 0%, 0 hours) had the values of crude protein 2.9g, crude fat 1.8g, and ash 0.3g, and mung milk (mungbean 100%, 0 hours), showed the values of crude protein 1.7g, crude fat 0g, and ash 0.3g. To analyze the effect of the differences in the contents of nutrition between soy milk and mung milk on fermentation, the changes in sugar contents, and antioxidant capacity will be conducted depending on fermentation time. Our results will provide the information in researching plant beverages.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the food behaviors and food preferences of teenagers by regional groups. The subjects were composed of 365 third grade students in middle schools from urban, rural and fishing areas in Kyungpook province. The data was collected by using a survey questionnaire. The results of the study are summarized as follows: Eating habits of 21-47% of the subjects, according to the regions, were poor and female students in large city showed the best eating habits while female students in fishing village showed the poorest eating habits. Out of the three regional groups studied, the subjects from the fishing villages had the highest rates of skipping meals and eating between meals. Out of all the people investigated, thirty to forty percent had unbalanced diets, the highest percentage coming from the urban areas and the lowest from the fishing villages. All together an allergic reaction to food was the highest in the fishing villages' subjects and female students were more sensitive compared to the male students. Students from the urban area had higher frequency of symptoms of lactose intolerance. Upon the investigation of the subjects 'food preferences, they preferred boiled rice to any other rice as a staple food. Cha jang myun was the most preferred out of all noodles and breads. It was found that teenagers preferred one course meal such as fried rice to a rice-centered regular meal. Out of all various meat soups, beef soup and beef-rib soup were preferred the most. As for subsidiary foods the most preferred were soybean paste stew and cuttlefish stew which they ate daily. There was a very high preference for fried foods, the most favored being pork cutlet followed by fried vegetables, sweet potatoes, and minced meat. The most preferred cooked vegetables were bean sprouts and seasoned cucumber. Seasoned cubed radish roots were the most preferred kind of kimchi. For desserts there was a very high preference for the following fruits: apples, plums, strawberries, and oranges. For beverages the most popular choice were chocolate drinks followed by orange juice, apple juice, milk and tomato juice. According to these investigations, most teenagers liked daily foods which they are used to. The study showed that on the whole the teenagers had poor eating habits. A problem that needs immediate attention is that female students and students from the fishing villages have a high rate of skipping meals. It is expected that the results of this food preference test of teenagers could be useful in the meal planning of middle school lunch programs in the future.

The frequency of obesity has risen dramatically in recent years but only few safe and effective drugs are currently available. In addition, obesity can induce type 2 diabetes (T2DM), hyperlipidemia and fatty liver disease. Recently, protective effect of purslane extract (PE) on obesity has been reported, but little is known about the role and mechanism of PE in obesity. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of PE on obesity and diabetes in obese mice. In addition, the effect of PE was compared with anti-obesity and diabetes drugs. High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice were treated for 8 weeks with drugs as follows: PE, orlistat, metformin, voglibose or pioglitazone. While PE mixed with normal diet did not have any effects on BW in non-obese mice, PE mixed with HFD significantly reduced BW gain, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance, without affecting food intake and appetite in obese mice. The effect was comparable to the effects of anti-obesity and diabetes drugs. Furthermore, PE significantly increased the activity of hepatocellular anti-oxidant enzymes, leading to protection of liver from oxidative stress in obese mice. These results suggest that PE treatment may be a useful tool for preventing obesity and complication of obesity.

High fructose intake induces hyperglycemia and hypertension. However, the mechanism by which fructose induces metabolic syndrome is largely unknown. We hypothesized that high fructose intake induces activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), resulting in hypertension and metabolic syndrome. We provided 11-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats with drinking water, with or without 20% fructose, for two weeks. We measured serum renin, angiotensin II (Ang II), and aldosterone (Aldo) using ELISA kits. The expression of RAS genes was determined by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. High fructose intake increased body weight and water retention, regardless of food intake or urine volume. After two weeks, fructose intake induced glucose intolerance and hypertension. High fructose intake increased serum renin, Ang II, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels, but not Aldo levels. High fructose intake increased the expression of angiotensinogen in the liver; angiotensin-converting enzyme in the lungs; and renin, angiotensin II type 1a receptor (AT1aR), and angiotensin II type 1b receptor (AT1bR) in the kidneys. However, expression of AT1aR and AT1bR in the adrenal glands did not increase in rats given fructose. Taken together, these results indicate that high fructose intake induces activation of RAS, resulting in hypertension and metabolic syndrome.
