Description

The present invention relates to a composition comprising peat and at least one functional material selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine.

Peat, also called clay, has long been used as a raw material for cosmetics. For example, peat is expected to have high adsorptive power to stains on the skin and hair, and is used as a raw material for cleansing cosmetics and cleaning agents (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, it cannot be said that the function of peat as a food raw material has been sufficiently studied, and new use of peat in the food field is required.

In recent years, the number of people who are concerned about obesity is increasing due to the growing health consciousness. Obesity increases the risk of various diseases, so eliminating obesity is a social issue. Examples of the method for preventing obesity include improvement of eating habits, continuation of appropriate exercise, intake of a diet composition having metabolism promotion, and control of calorie intake. However, it is not easy to improve eating habits because it requires specialized knowledge. In addition, moderate exercise is not easy because there is not enough time for exercise. Therefore, it is considered that the intake of the diet composition having a metabolism promoting effect and the control of the calorie intake are simple diet methods that are easy to continue as compared with other diet methods. One way to control calories is to reduce the amount of food you eat.

Under these circumstances, diet compositions and the like have been developed, and many products have been put into practical use. For example, a diet composition characterized by containing a gymnema inodrum extract (Patent Document 3), a diet health food material containing anti-leaf beans as a main raw material (Patent Document 4), and use of konjac powder as a diet material. A method (Patent Document 5) and the like have been proposed, and a diet effect has been reported.

In addition, although various diet compositions have been developed so far, some people are not satisfied with the conventional diet compositions because of the various tastes of human beings. Therefore, there is a demand for a novel diet composition having an excellent diet effect.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2020-026419 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-170817 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 5-252897 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2007-02445 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2007-295906

An object of the present invention is to provide a novel composition using peat in the food field. Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel diet composition having a metabolism promoting effect and the like.

As a result of diligent studies in view of the above problems, the present inventors complete a composition characterized by containing peat and at least one functional material selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine. It came to. Further, since the composition of the present invention can be orally ingested as a food raw material, the present inventors have an oral composition containing peat and at least one functional material selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine. I came to complete the thing. In addition, since the composition of the present invention has an excellent dieting effect, the present inventors have a diet containing peat and at least one functional material selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine. The composition was completed.

That is, the present invention is as follows.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited to such examples. Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, "%" represents mass%.

<Test example>
As the peat, paste-like peat from Scandinavia was used.
As the vitamin, powdered sodium D-pantothenate was used.
As the vitamin, powdered vitamin D3 was used.
As the lactic acid bacterium, powdered spore-forming lactic acid bacterium (scientific name: Bacillus coagulans) was used.
As the piperine, powdered piperine was used.

<Cell activation test>
(1) Cell culture Human liver cancer-derived cells (HepG2,) were cultured in a _{5% CO 2} incubator at ^{37 ° C. using a 75 cm 2 flask.} As the medium, a medium prepared to obtain 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) in DMEM supplemented with 1% of P / S (penicillin / streptomycin) was used. The cells suspended by trypsin treatment were then suspended in FBS-containing medium and ^{seeded from a 75 cm 2} flask into each well of a collagen-coated 96-well plate at a cell density of ^{1 × 10 4 cells / well.} Then, it was pre-cultured at 37 ° C. in a 5% CO _{2 incubator for 24 hours.} After removing the medium from each well, 100 μL / well of the preparation medium containing the test substance prepared to a predetermined concentration was added, and the _{cells were cultured at 37 ° C. in a 5% CO 2} incubator for 24 hours. As the preparative media, was used to DMEM supplemented with P / S 1%, 10% FBS, 0.5% DMSO, those prepared such that the 0.5mM H ₂ 0 _2.

(2) Preparation of test sample Each test substance was prepared to have the concentrations shown in Tables 1 to 4 using a preparation medium. As the combination (Examples 1 to 4) of peat and other materials (at least one selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine), a mixture of peat and other materials at a ratio of 1: 1 was used.

(3) Cell activation measurement After culturing for the above 24 hours, the medium was removed, and the cells were washed with 200 μL / well of serum-free DMEM. Then, 150 μL of Cell counting kit-8 solution (manufactured by Dojin Chemical Co., Ltd.) diluted 30 times by volume was added to each well, and the mixture was allowed to stand in _{a 5% CO 2 incubator at 37 ° C. to develop an appropriate color.} The absorbance at 450 nm was measured.

The% of control was calculated based on the obtained data.
% of control = (Data sample-Data blank) / (Data control-Data blank) x 100

The obtained results are shown in FIGS. 1 to 4. FIGS. 1 to 4 show the average value and standard deviation of the triplets. The numerical value indicates that the higher the cell activation effect, the higher the cell activation effect. As is clear from the results shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, Examples 1 to 4 containing peat and at least one selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine are comparisons comprising only peat, vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine. It can be seen that it has a better effect of cell activation than Examples 1 to 6. Therefore, by containing peat and at least one selected from vitamins, lactic acid bacteria and piperine, cells are activated and metabolism is promoted, and as a result, anti-obesity effect and diet effect can be obtained.
