Japan is experiencing a most rapidly aging demographic. Despite this, the overall morbidity has been increasing due to the proportion of aging population that has increased rapidly along with the proportion of lifestyle related diseases, such as： all types of cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, etc. As a result, the number of people requiring special care has become a serious problem. In response to these emerging health issues, the Strategic Planning force proposed the National Health Promotion Actualization Initiative in the 21st Century (“Healthy Japan 21”) so that it could be achieved by the year 2010. The policies should be conducted by providing adequately as well as with active participation and collaboration, effectively networking with the various organizations dealing with health issue. The Japanese Health Promotion Act passed by the National Assembly, 2001. As well as the many individuals that contributed to the development of this national health plan.

This study utilized importance and performance analysis (IPA) in order to improve and plan tangible (menu) and intangible (service) products at dumpling shops. Menu attributes for tangible products were classified into sensory factor, health factor, hygiene factor, and external factor. Attributes for intangible products were classified into response factor, visual factor, spatial factor, package factor, and promotion factor. In IPA analysis of tangible products, sensory factor and hygiene factor were located in Quadrant I (Keep up the good work). Health factor was located in Quadrant III (Low priority for management) and the external factor was located in Quadrant II (Possible overkill). In IPA analysis of intangible products, response factor and visual factor were located in Quadrant I, whereas promotion factor was located in Quadrant III. The attributes related to kindness of staff and space for customers in the store were more important, but due to their low performance level, they were located in Quadrant IV (Concentrate management here). Thus, the product planner should improve attributes of the related product immediately. As a result, the development of competitive products within the market is possible.

Leuconostoc citreum is one of the representative strains of Leuconostoc spp. that show fast growth rates in fermented vegetables. Sequential experimental designs including the Plackett-Burman design, fractional factorial design, steepest ascent analysis, central composite design and response surface methodology were introduced tooptimize and improve the medium for Leuconostoc citreum. Fifteen medium ingredients were examined and glucose (20 g/l), yeast extract (12.5 g/l), sodium acetate trihydrate (6.12 g/l), potassium phosphate (42.55 g/l) and dibasic ammonium citrate (4.12 g/l)were chosen as the best components to give a critical and positive effect for cell-growth. The biomass was increased to 2.79 g/l (169%), compared to the 1.65 g/l in MRS medium.

Sequential experimental designs including the Plackett-Burman design, fractional factorial design, steepest ascent analysis, central composite design and response surface methodology were introduced to optimize and improve the medium for L. citreum. Fifteen medium ingredients were examined and glucose ($20 g/\ell$), yeast extract ($12.5g/\ell$), sodium acetate trihydrate ($6.12g/\ell$), potassium phosphate ($42.55g/\ell$), and dibasic ammonium citrate ($4.12g/\ell$), were chosen as the best components to give a critical and positive effect for cell-growth. The biomass was increased to ($2.79g/\ell$), (169%), compared to the $1.65g/\ell$ in MRS medium.

This study was carried out to evaluate health effects of aircraft noise using THI(Todai Health Index). The questionnaire survey was conducted around the Gimpo International Airport in Seoul, Korea from 8 August to 9 September. Study subjects, 614 residents, were divided into three groups following to the aircraft noise level: under 75WECPNL(area(1)), $75{\sim}80$WECPNL(area(2)) and $80{\sim}85$WECPNL(area (3)). Twelve scale scores are converted to dichotomous variables based on scale scores of 90 percentile value or 10 percentile value in the control group. Logistic regression analysis taking twelve scores converted as the dependent variables and WECPNL(area), age, gender as the independent variables is conducted. Significant dose-response relationships are found in the scale of MOUT, DEPR, NERV, LIFE, where p denotes significance probability of trend test. Factor analysis was carried out and 2 factors are extracted which may be called "somatic factor" and "mental factor". The dose-response relationship with these factors and noise exposure is not clear. But strangely the odds ratio of mental factor in area 2 is the highest and the annoyance of this area is also higher than other areas.

Exposure of skin to UV-B radiation can cause inflammatory response and immunosuppression. It has been reported that Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) has several pharmacological and physiological effects such as antioxidant, anticancer and improving immune function. In this study, we investigated that topical KRG and KRG + EGb 761 (Ginkgo biloba extract) combination prevented UV-B induced inflammation and inhibition of contact hypersensitivity response. Topical application of KRG, f days prior to or 5 days after exposure to 1MED and 2MED of UV-B, reduced skin thickness compared to non -treated group and resulted in protection against immunosuppression. However, KRG+EGb 761 combination has a little protection against the only 1MED UV-B. In conclusion. Topical application of KRG was more effective than combination in protection against UV-B induced inflammation and immune suppression. Also, we suggest that KRG can provide protection from inflammation and immunosuppression by UV-B radiation.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of red ginseng drinks as school meal drinks for 456 middle and high school students in Cheongdo-gun, North Gyeongsang Province. In preliminary studies, we focused on saponin with an efficacy of Rg 1 and Rg 2 in prepared red ginseng drinks. The health benefits and sensory characteristics were also investigated. For the frequency analysis, the satisfaction of the drinks as beverages serving as a school meal was relatively low, and the demand for fruit drinks was high. The result of sensory evaluations indicated a positive response of > 50.0% for the container packaging and design, daily intake, and tastes. Regarding the correlation analysis on red ginseng drinks, there were significant differences (p < 0.01) in the response to packaging (a daily intake) and design. In addition, health and learning benefits showed a very high correlation at the p < 0.01 significance level.

This study was conducted to investigate the intakes and preferences related to Korean traditional teas in each of the age groups. The survey was conducted from March $9^{th}$ to $23^{rd}$, 2015. The subjects in this study were 642 adults aged more than 20 years that resided in the Seoul and Gyeonggi areas. The health status score was 3.57, and the health concern score was 3.54. The reason for preferring traditional tea was 'health' (40.5%) and 'good taste, color, and aroma' (29.7%). The most important factor in drinking a traditional tea was health (37.1%). Acceptance of each type of traditional tea was ranked in order of 'grain tea', 'fruit tea', 'floral leaf tea', 'assorted tea', 'medical root tea', and 'tonic tea'. A total of 92.8% of respondents said traditional teas should be popularized. Regarding problems for popularization of traditional teas, the most common response was 'not popularized yet' (39.7%). Regarding the method for popularization of traditional teas, the most common response was 'convenience of purchase for ingredients'. As a result, preferences for traditional tea and popularization method were different according to age. It is thus necessary to develop traditional tea products considering the age range.
