[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention is based on oligosaccharide granules or powders that have been eaten by humans for a long time, such as onions, burdock, bananas, honey, bamboo shoots, soybeans, sweet potatoes, starch, and milk. There is strangely the combination with. In order to get the weak bifidobacteria as far as possible to the intestines, wrap them gently in fat. Oligosaccharides with various functions are needed to grow weak bifidobacteria that have finally reached the intestine so that they can survive in the harsh environment where harmful bacteria (such as Escherichia coli and Welsh bacteria) are growing in the intestine. It is important to take together. Oligosaccharides with various functions can only be eaten by bifidobacteria, not by harmful bacteria (such as Escherichia coli and Welsh bacteria). Ingesting oligosaccharides as feed for bifidobacteria enables them to live in harsh intestinal environments. By wrapping only bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides in a single bag and ingesting them together, the purpose is to maintain the balance of intestinal bacteria due to the relationship between bifidobacteria and diet (oligosaccharides), and to maintain and promote human health We are.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Currently, bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides are contained in various foods and drinking waters. It has been commercialized in cookies, wafers, chocolates, candy, chewing gum, yogurt, lactic acid bacteria drinks, and ice cream. Bifidobacterium powder is also sold after being coated with oil and fat and enclosed in stick packaging bags. However, consumers have begun to gradually understand the effects of bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides in the media, but as with all products, the relationship between bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides is understood by consumers. I don't think This is because there is no product that can confirm the direct causal relationship between Bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 Sugar is an excellent sweetener, but it is a problem as a cause of tooth decay, obesity or diabetes. Sugar is broken down and absorbed in the small intestine and used as energy for the human body. However, oligosaccharides are not decomposed or absorbed by human digestive enzymes. It is not used for human energy. Oligosaccharides at the beginning of the development were manufactured as sweeteners to correct the adverse effects of excessive sugar intake, and have begun to be used as growth factors for bifidobacteria. However, a recent survey of oligosaccharides showed that the promotion of the growth of bifidobacteria caused intestinal effects, non-cariogenicity, and prevention of obesity. However, Suntory promoted the mineral absorption of xylo-oligosaccharides (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. -67575), an immunostimulant using lactic acid bacteria from Meiji Dairies (JP-A-7-228536), an immunostimulator for Nigerooligosaccharides from Takeda Foods Industries (JP-A-9-52834), a novel oligosaccharide from Snow Brand Milk Industry, Its production method and its use (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. Hei 7-316177). As in the case of bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria growth promoters (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 7-267866), each company is competing to make every effort to enhance the functional effects of oligosaccharides. Has applied for a patent. There is no doubt that oligosaccharides, which were growth factors for Bifidobacteria, will continue to grow as multifunctional foods with various functions. The ability to fully demonstrate the multifunctional effects of this oligosaccharide means that Bifidobacteria are exhibiting these effects. It is thought that the synergistic effect is brought about by the combination of Bifidobacterium and oligosaccharide. It is important to take Bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides simultaneously. Simultaneous ingestion of bifidobacteria and oligosaccharides can be expected to have a protective effect against the current problems of environmental pollution and bacterial infection.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Bifidobacteria were not dissolved in the stomach, but were dissolved after reaching the intestine as much as possible, and a fat coating was applied so that their components could be absorbed. First, the Bifidobacterium is cultured in a medium, the cells are concentrated by a method such as centrifugation, washed, and then centrifuged again. A freeze-protecting agent is added to the obtained concentrated cells, and the cells are freeze-dried. After crushing the dried cells, the cells are triturated with starch, dextrin, etc. to produce "Bifidobacterium powder". The bifidobacterium powder and the hardened fine powder of fat and oil are caused to physically collide with each other at a high speed, and the fat and oil fine particles are spread on the surface of the bifidobacterium powder. This treatment is performed under a nitrogen stream while cooling the powder to minimize the killing of bifidobacteria. This method is a kind of dry granulation coating method, and almost no bacteria are killed during the production. Oligosaccharides are produced by each company's own manufacturing method because the content components of each company are different. Morinaga's lactulose is explained from various oligosaccharides, and lactose as a raw material is isomerized to obtain lactulose. This is purified, and the unreacted lactose is concentrated and crystallized to be separated and removed to obtain lactulose syrup. This syrup is purified by chromatography, purified, concentrated, crystallized, dried and pulverized. Multi-functional oligosaccharides manufactured in powder or granules by their own manufacturing methods are used individually or blended according to the purpose, mixed with oil- and fat-coated bifidobacteria, and put in appropriate amounts in stick-shaped packaging bags. Including.

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The oil-and-fat coated bifidobacterium powder and the powdered or granular oligosaccharides contained in the stick-shaped packaging bag can maintain the material as natural and natural as possible and maintain its freshness. In the process of chemical conversion, it is necessary to consider product forms that have little quality deterioration factors such as additives, heat, water, pressure, and air oxidation. In addition, factors such as daily intake, absorption in the body, ease of eating, ease of handling, cost, and relevant laws and regulations must be considered. In particular, the combination of bifidobacteria coated with oils and fats and powdered or granular oligosaccharides should be considered when commercializing products. The limitation to this product form is a major reason that these forms are superior in maintaining the stability of specific components.

[0006]

EXAMPLE 1 One bifidobacteria and two oligosaccharides are wrapped in an appropriate amount in a three-stick packaging bag made of a packaging material such as nonwoven fabric, paper, or polyethylene. 3 bags containing 1 bifidobacteria and 2 oligosaccharides in appropriate amounts are made into a box in which the 3 bags can be placed in an appropriate amount, and they are stored properly.

[0007]

[Effect of the invention]

 Examining the state of oligosaccharides in the gastrointestinal tract reveals that there are hundreds of bacteria inhabiting the human intestine, and there are hundred trillion. About 10% of the dry weight of stool is bacterial cells. Most of the intestinal bacteria in newborn infants are bifidobacteria, but the number of bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Welsh grows gradually. In older people, enterobacteria and Welsh bacteria dominate intestinal bacteria. Bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria are useful bacteria for humans, and in particular, bifidobacteria have a function of suppressing harmful bacteria in the large intestine. Typical physiological effects of bifidobacteria include intestinal regulation, improvement of intestinal flora, suppression of intestinal putrefaction products, improvement of defecation properties, immunostimulatory effect, enhancement of bone strength, synthesis of vitamins, promotion of mineral absorption, etc. No. Oligosaccharides have the property of improving the intestinal microflora by allowing individual individuals to grow bifidobacteria in the intestine more specifically than other bacteria. That is, when used as a feed for bifidobacteria, it has the same physiological function as bifidobacteria. In recent years, the absorption of minerals and the activation of immunity due to the multifunctional effects of oligosaccharides have been recognized, which greatly contributes to the maintenance and promotion of our health.
