  The effect | action of this invention is estimated as follows.

  When matabi, ants and cat's crow are added to a fermented liquid containing fermenting bacteria having a fermenting action, the matabi, ants and cat's crow are fermented and dissolved by the fermenting action of the fermented liquid.

  At this time, matabi, ants and cat's crow are fermented together by the fermented liquid, so that the respective active ingredients interact with each other, and an excellent synergistic effect can be exhibited.

  In addition, the matabi, ants and cat crows are sufficiently dissolved by the fermentation solution to have a low molecular weight, whereby the active ingredients contained in the matabi, ants and cat crows are easily absorbed by the human body.

  Therefore, the active ingredients contained in matababi, ants and cats crows, that is, active ingredients capable of exerting analgesic action, anti-inflammatory action, etc., can be brought into a more activated state by blending with each other, and further, the activated synergistic effect can be achieved. The active ingredient that can be exerted can be easily absorbed into the body, and by taking it, it can obtain excellent effects that can not be obtained by simply taking the above-mentioned matababi, ants and cat's crow together It will be a groundbreaking fermented health food.

  Examples of the present invention will be described.

  The present embodiment relates to a fermented health food comprising a fermented liquid containing a fermenting bacterium having a fermenting action, and matatabi, ants and cat's crow fermented with the fermented liquid.

  Yeast bacteria and lactic acid bacteria are employed as fermenting bacteria having a fermenting action. The yeast refers to general yeast such as yeast, wine yeast, alcohol yeast, and brewer's yeast.

  As the matabi, a matababi extract obtained by extracting an active ingredient from the leaves, branches, or trunk of the matabi is used.

  The active ingredients extracted from the leaves, branches or trunks of matababi include ingredients that have good health effects such as matatabic acid, matatabilactone, actinidine, polygamol, etc. Anti-inflammatory effect is exerted.

  In the field of herbal medicine, the wood tengu formed by the matabino aphids laying eggs in the pupae of the matababi just before the bud or flowering, Although it is known as a medicine having an action of warming or relieving pain, in this embodiment, as described above, the extract of a matababi extract is obtained using a leaf, a branch, or a trunk of the matababi, without using the wooden bowl. To get.

  In the present example, the reason why the matababi extract was obtained using the leaves, branches, or stems of the matababi is that, for example, when using the tabata fruit, it is not possible to obtain the effect of relieving pain.

  In addition, you may employ | adopt the mata-bi extract which extracted the active ingredient from the wooden tengu as a mata-bi of a present Example.

  As the ant, a commercially available dry ant is employed.

  In addition, ants that have been pulverized by pulverization are employed.

  This is because it is very hard from the ant shell, and is pulverized and powdered in advance so that it can be easily dissolved by fermentation due to the fermenting action of the fermenting bacteria.

Ants include 28 kinds of amino acids such as glutamic acid and alanine, formic acid, vitamins such as vitamin B ₁ , vitamin B ₁₂ and vitamin E, trace elements such as minerals, calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium and zinc, It contains various health-friendly components such as various enzymes, steroid compounds, terpenoid compounds (saponins), citromelal (healthy ingredients), and these ingredients make immunomodulating effects (especially indirect rheumatism, hepatitis, Immunological abnormalities, etc.), anti-aging action (enhancement of vigor), anti-inflammatory action, analgesic action, etc. can be exhibited.

  Cats crow (Uncaria genus tomentosa species Rubiaaceae (common name: UNA DE GATO)) is a vine that grows naturally in the highland above 800m above sea level in the Peruvian Amazon. , 6 kinds of oxindole alkaloids (pteropodin, isopteropodin, mitrafine, isomitrafilin, lincophylline, isolinocophylline), polyphenols, anthocyanins, terpenes, quinovic acid, plant sterols, tannins, etc. These components can exert analgesic action, calming action, anti-inflammatory action, immunity enhancing action, blood circulation improving action, and the like.

  Fermented papaya obtained by fermenting papaya with yeast and lactic acid bacteria is further added to the fermented health food of this example.

  As this fermented papaya, fermented papaya liquid produced by the production method described in JP-A No. 2001-120224 is employed.

  That is, the fermented papaya liquid is obtained by subdividing papaya (for example, domestic papaya) by slicing or mincing, then adding sugar and extracting the extract in the papaya cell by osmotic pressure, followed by yeast And yeast such as wine yeast are added and stirred once or more every day to ferment and propagate the yeast and the wild yeast originally attached to the papaya for 6 to 8 days, followed by addition of lactic acid and pH 3 The yeast, wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria are co-cultivated for 10 to 15 days while being maintained at pH 5.0 to pH 4.0, and then the liquid is separated by pressing, and the yeast and wine yeast are further separated into the liquid. It is formed by carrying out fermentation aging for 20 to 60 days while adding yeasts such as bacteria and lactic acid bacteria.

  When ingested in the body, this fermented papaya liquid exerts an effect of adjusting the balance of enteric bacteria, that is, the balance between good bacteria (typically lactic acid bacteria) and bad bacteria (typically Clostridium perfringens), Specific effects that have been confirmed include blood purification, cell activation, improvement of blood circulation, prevention of arteriosclerosis, improvement of digestion and absorption metabolism (ie, improvement of nutrient circulation), pathogenic bacteria, harmful bacteria Inhibition of growth and infection, activation of immune system, increased production of hormones and vitamins, decomposition of harmful substances and carcinogens, promotion of excretion, stabilization of intestinal pH, activation of intestinal activity, improvement of lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, liver and kidney Function activation and maintenance can be improved.

  More specific description will be given below.

  First, ant (eg, 3.5 kg to 6.5 kg) is mixed with fermented papaya liquid (eg, 12 liters to 22 liters) and water (eg, 17 liters to 31 liters), and yeast (eg, 1.0 g) is added to the mixture. To 2.0 g) and lactic acid bacteria (eg 0.35 to 0.65 g), the fermentation starts after approximately 10 to 30 hours.

  The fermentation at this time is performed at a room temperature of about 20 ° C to 40 ° C.

  Thereby, fermentation dissolution of ants proceeds.

  Subsequently, after 24 hours to 48 hours have elapsed from the inoculation with the yeast and lactic acid bacteria, a matabi extract (for example, 28 liters to 52 liters) and a cat crow (for example, 24 kg to 46 kg) are mixed.

  This matababi extract is formed by adding a matababi leaf, branch, or trunk to a sufficient amount of water, heating, boiling, boiling and concentrating for about 1 hour, and then filtering.

  Subsequently, the fermented papaya liquid (for example, 12 liters to 22 liters) is further mixed and the enzyme stock solution (for example, 0.35 liters to 0.65 liters) is mixed and fermented for about 10 hours to 30 hours.

  Subsequently, after the fermentation time has elapsed, starch (for example, 1.8 kg to 3.4 kg) is mixed, further fermented, and fermented and dried.

  This fermentation and drying is performed over approximately 7 to 15 days.

  Subsequently, the dried fermented product is pulverized and powdered to produce a product.

  Fermentation is performed at a room temperature of 20 ° C to 40 ° C. At this time, it is desirable to carry out the fermentation while keeping the water content of the fermented product at about 50% (weight) to 80% (weight).

  Since the present embodiment is as described above, the active ingredient contained in the matababi, ants and cat's crow, that is, the active ingredient capable of exerting an analgesic action, an anti-inflammatory action, etc. can be more activated, and it is very much in the body. To produce a fermented health food that can be easily absorbed, and that can be used to obtain excellent effects that cannot be obtained by simply taking the above-mentioned matababi, ants and cat's crow together. Can do.

  That is, in this example, matabi, ants and cats crow are fermented together with a fermentation broth so that the active ingredients can interact with each other, and the active ingredients can be activated. Since ants etc. are in a state that is easily absorbed into the body by being fermented and dissolved, various active ingredients such as activated matabi and ants are efficiently absorbed into the body, and due to the synergistic effect of the active ingredients, The superior effect that cannot be obtained by using a combination of two or more matatabi can be obtained by taking it.

  Moreover, since the fermented papaya liquid which has the effect | action which adjusts the balance of intestinal bacteria is mixed in this Example, the activated active ingredient in the state which is easy to be absorbed in the said body is adjusting the balance of enteric bacteria. Since it can be absorbed into the body, the active ingredient can be absorbed more efficiently and well.

  This example confirms that an excellent analgesic effect, anti-inflammatory effect, immune regulation effect, anti-aging effect, immune enhancement effect, and blood circulation improvement effect can be obtained by taking this example.
