Description
この発明は脳機能改善組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to a brain function improving composition.
従来より、フォスファチジルコリンは、生体内において細胞膜の主要構成物質及び神経伝達物質として知られており、治療法が確立していない脳性の難病や症状、例えば、パーキンソン病、自閉症、アルツハイマー症候群、多動性障害、認知症などの症状の改善や予防に効果がある脳機能改善物質として注目されている。 Traditionally, phosphatidylcholine has been known as a major constituent and neurotransmitter of cell membranes in vivo, and intractable cerebral diseases and symptoms for which no cure has been established, such as Parkinson's disease, autism, and Alzheimer's disease. It is attracting attention as a brain function improving substance that is effective in improving and preventing symptoms such as syndrome, hyperactivity disorder, and dementia.
それ故、これまでに、フォスファチジルコリンの効果効能に着目したサプリメントや薬剤、機能性食品は種々提案されている。 Therefore, various supplements, drugs, and functional foods focusing on the efficacy and efficacy of phosphatidylcholine have been proposed so far.
例えば、フォスファチジルコリンをゼラチンと混合してゼリー状やグミ状としたものや(例えば、特許文献1参照。)、可溶性カプセルに収容したものなどが挙げられる。 For example, phosphatidylcholine is mixed with gelatin to form a jelly or gummy (see, for example, Patent Document 1), or is contained in a soluble capsule.
ところで、近年、健康な人に比べて幼児や高齢者のように咬合力が弱く咀嚼機能が劣っている者(以下、咀嚼困難者ともいう。)や口腔、咽頭、食道などの嚥下筋の筋力が低い嚥下機能が劣っている者(以下、嚥下困難者と称す。)が、如何にして食物を摂取するかが課題となっている。 By the way, in recent years, the strength of swallowing muscles such as the oral cavity, pharynx, and esophagus, and those who have weaker occlusal force and inferior masticatory function (hereinafter, also referred to as masticatory difficulty) such as infants and elderly people compared to healthy people. The issue is how a person with poor swallowing function (hereinafter referred to as a person who has difficulty swallowing) ingests food.
こうした咀嚼困難者や嚥下困難者は、咀嚼不足から食物を正しく食片化して食塊を形成できず、また、嚥下に際して食道ではなく不意に気管に入り肺へ到達してしまう、いわゆる誤嚥を起こしてしまう危険がある。 These people who have difficulty chewing or swallowing cannot properly convert food into pieces to form a bolus due to insufficient chewing, and when swallowing, they suddenly enter the trachea instead of the esophagus and reach the lungs, so-called aspiration. There is a risk of waking up.
このような傾向は、特に加齢に伴う前述の疾病等により脳機能が低下した高齢者の間に顕著で、高齢化社会に拍車をかける我が国においてはこのような高齢者の誤嚥性肺炎による死因率は高く、深刻な問題となっている。 Such a tendency is particularly remarkable among the elderly whose brain function has deteriorated due to the above-mentioned diseases associated with aging, and in Japan, which accelerates the aging society, due to such aspiration pneumonia in the elderly. The cause of death is high, which is a serious problem.
上述のカプセル型の摂取に際しては、咀嚼、嚥下の一連動作のうち口腔内での咀嚼反芻をする機会がなく、口あたり、舌ざわり、喉ごしといった食物を口から食べているという食感が得られず、腸管吸収に依存して摂取できればよいとする極めて無機質なものとなっていた。 When ingesting the capsule type described above, there is no opportunity to chew and reverberate in the oral cavity in the series of chewing and swallowing movements, and the texture of eating foods such as mouthfeel, tongue and throat is obtained. It was extremely inorganic, as long as it could be ingested depending on intestinal absorption.
さらに、嚥下は咀嚼経て反射的に引き起こされる反射的動作であるため、専ら嚥下動作のみをすることは難しく、例えば可溶性カプセルに収容したものにあっては特に嚥下困難者にとって不意の誤嚥を生起させる危険があった。 Furthermore, since swallowing is a reflexive movement caused by reflexes through mastication, it is difficult to perform only swallowing movements. For example, those contained in soluble capsules cause unexpected aspiration, especially for people who have difficulty swallowing. There was a danger of causing it.
一方で、グミ状やゼリー状としたものは、摂食者に咀嚼を可能とし食感を付与するものの、口腔内の食片のべたつき度合い(付着性)や咽頭部でのまとまりやすさ(凝集性)の度合いによっては依然として誤嚥を生起する危険性があった。 On the other hand, gummy-like or jelly-like substances allow the ingestor to chew and give a texture, but the degree of stickiness (adhesiveness) of the food pieces in the oral cavity and the ease of cohesion in the pharynx (aggregation). There was still a risk of aspiration depending on the degree of sex).
また、一般的に、薬物や栄養素などの有効成分は、腸内での分解や肝臓での初回通過効果により化学形が変化している。 In general, the chemical form of active ingredients such as drugs and nutrients is changed by decomposition in the intestine and the first pass effect in the liver.
従って、体内に摂取された有効成分が最終的に標的とする組織等へ吸収されやすい化学形であるかの予測は困難であり、また、体内に吸収されたとしても有効成分のごく一部しか標的とする器官や組織等(脳)へ到達できないため、期待される効果を実感しずらい等の問題があった。 Therefore, it is difficult to predict whether the active ingredient ingested in the body is in a chemical form that is easily absorbed by the target tissue, etc., and even if it is absorbed in the body, only a small part of the active ingredient is absorbed. Since it is not possible to reach the target organs and tissues (brain), there is a problem that it is difficult to realize the expected effect.
本発明は、斯かる事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、咀嚼による食感を失わせることなく、誤嚥を防止することができ、しかも、腸管吸収だけでなく、舌、口蓋粘膜、頬粘膜などの口腔内粘膜吸収のうち、主に舌の毛細血管へ直接的に吸収させる舌下吸収を助長して脳へ有効成分であるフォスファチジルコリンを到達させて脳機能改善効果を得るための脳機能改善組成物を提供する。 The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is possible to prevent aspiration without losing the texture due to mastication, and not only intestinal absorption but also tongue, palatal mucosa, and cheeks. Of the absorption of oral mucosa such as mucosa, mainly to promote sublingual absorption that is directly absorbed into the capillaries of the tongue and to reach the active ingredient phosphatidylcholine to obtain the effect of improving brain function. To provide a composition for improving brain function.

Adhesion is 200 J / m 3 or less, oral cohesiveness during mastication is 0.1 to 1.0, and surface area is 5 to 85 cm 2 , so aspiration can be prevented without losing the texture due to mastication. Moreover, among not only intestinal absorption but also oral mucosal absorption such as tongue, palatal mucosa, and buccal mucosa, phos is an active ingredient for the brain by promoting sublingual absorption, which is mainly absorbed directly into the capillaries of the tongue. It is possible to provide a brain function improving composition for reaching fatidylcholine to obtain a brain function improving effect.
また、咀嚼硬度がJISK6253タイプAデュロメータによるゴム硬度値で1〜50であって、表面積が5〜15cm2のグミ状とすれば、適度な咬みごたえを摂食者に付与しつつ唾液の分泌を促して口腔内でのフォスファチジルコリンの溶出促進が可能なグミ状の脳機能改善組成物を提供することができる。 In addition, if the masticatory hardness is 1 to 50 according to the JIS K6253 Type A durometer and the surface area is 5 to 15 cm 2 in the shape of a gummy candy, saliva is secreted while giving the predator an appropriate chewy texture. It is possible to provide a gummy-like brain function improving composition capable of promoting the elution of phosphatidylcholine in the oral cavity.
また、口腔内における非咀嚼状態での溶けきる時間が3分以内であることとすれば、口腔内の違和感や喉頭での異物感を摂食者に与えることなく、脳機能改善組成物を速やかに溶出させて、主に舌や頬等での口腔内粘膜吸収を助長することができる。 In addition, if the time to dissolve in the non-chewed state in the oral cavity is within 3 minutes, the brain function improving composition can be quickly applied without giving the predator a feeling of discomfort in the oral cavity or a foreign body sensation in the larynx. It can be eluted in the oral cavity to promote the absorption of the oral mucosa mainly in the tongue and cheeks.
また、咀嚼硬度が1〜15kN/m2であり、口内付着性が150J/m3以下であり、咀嚼時の口内凝集性が0.1〜0.9であり、表面積が35〜85cm2であるゼリー状とすれば、脳機能改善組成物の断片化をさらに容易とし、フォスファチジルコリンの溶出促進が可能なゼリー状の脳機能改善組成物を提供することができる。 In addition, the masticatory hardness is 1 to 15 kN / m 2 , the mouth adhesion is 150 J / m 3 or less, the mouth cohesiveness during mastication is 0.1 to 0.9, and the surface area is 35 to 85 cm 2. Therefore, it is possible to provide a jelly-like brain function improving composition capable of further facilitating fragmentation of the brain function improving composition and promoting elution of phosphatidylcholine.
また、口腔内における非咀嚼状態での溶けきる時間が2分以内であることとすれば、口腔内において残渣を残すことなく、より速やかに脳機能改善組成物を口腔内部で溶出させて、主に舌や頬等での口腔内粘膜吸収を助長することができ、特に咀嚼困難者に優しい性状のゼリー状の脳機能改善組成物を提供できる。 In addition, if the time to dissolve in the non-chewed state in the oral cavity is within 2 minutes, the brain function improving composition is more rapidly eluted in the oral cavity without leaving a residue in the oral cavity, and the main component is In addition, it is possible to promote the absorption of the oral mucosa in the tongue, cheeks, etc., and it is possible to provide a jelly-like brain function improving composition having a property particularly gentle to those who have difficulty chewing.
また、前記フォスファチジルコリンによる脳の活性化を助長する補助成分を更に含み、同補助成分は、脳機能改善組成物100重量部あたり、30×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンCと、0.45×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンB1と、0.5×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンB2と、0.081×10-6〜300×10-3重量部の葉酸と、2×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のパントテン酸と、からなることとすれば、舌下吸収や頬粘膜吸収などの口腔内粘膜吸収がさらに良好となり、フォスファチジルコリンの脳機能改善効果をより高めることができる。 In addition, it further contains an auxiliary component that promotes the activation of the brain by the phosphatidylcholine, and the auxiliary component is 30 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the brain function improving composition. vitamin C and, vitamin B1 of 0.45 × 10 -6 ~300 × 10 -3 parts by weight, and 0.5 × 10 -6 ~300 × 10 -3 parts by weight of vitamin B2, 0.081 × 10 -6 ~300 × 10 - If it is composed of 3 parts by weight of folic acid and 2 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 parts by weight of pantothenic acid, oral mucosal absorption such as sublingual absorption and buccal mucosal absorption is further improved. The effect of improving brain function of phosphatidylcholine can be further enhanced.
また、嚥下困難化呈味成分として魚油由来のドコサヘキサエン酸又はエイコサペンタエン酸を更に含有し、経口摂取時の口腔内滞留時間を増大させて前記フォスファチジルコリンの舌下からの吸収量を増加させるべく構成した舌下吸収用の脳機能改善組成物とすれば、嚥下困難者が脳機能脳機能改善組成物を嚥下することを抑制して誤嚥等を防止しつつ、舌下からの吸収による効果的な脳機能改善効果を発揮させることができる。 In addition, docosahexaenoic acid or eikosapentaenoic acid derived from fish oil is further contained as a dysphagic taste component to increase the oral residence time during oral ingestion and increase the amount of phosphatidylcholine absorbed from the tongue. If the composition is designed to improve sublingual absorption, it suppresses swallowing by people with dysphagia to prevent aspiration, etc., and is absorbed from under the tongue. It is possible to exert an effective effect of improving brain function.
本発明は、ゲルマトリクス中に主成分としてのフォスファチジルコリンを含み、経口摂取により脳の活性化を促す脳機能改善組成物であって、咀嚼時の口内付着性を200J/m3以下とし、咀嚼時の口内凝集性を0.1〜1.0とし、表面積を5〜85cm2としたことを特徴とする脳機能改善組成物を提供するものである。 The present invention is a composition for improving brain function that contains phosphatidylcholine as a main component in a gel matrix and promotes brain activation by oral ingestion, and has an oral adhesion of 200 J / m 3 or less during mastication. The present invention provides a brain function improving composition characterized in that the cohesiveness in the mouth during mastication is 0.1 to 1.0 and the surface area is 5 to 85 cm 2 .
特に、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物は、例えば、幼児や高齢者といった咀嚼困難者や嚥下困難者に対しても、その主成分であるフォスファチジルコリンの吸収を促進し、脳性の難病の改善や予防をする食品を提供するものでもある。 In particular, the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment promotes the absorption of phosphatidylcholine, which is the main component thereof, even for persons with difficulty chewing or swallowing, such as infants and the elderly, and is cerebral. It also provides foods that improve or prevent intractable diseases.
本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物は、前述の如く咀嚼時の口内付着性が200J/m3以下、咀嚼時の口内凝集性が0.1〜1.0、表面積が5〜85cm2であって、ゲルマトリクス中に主成分としてのフォスファチジルコリンを含有するものであれば、摂取の際の形態において特に限定されることはない。 As described above, the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment has a mouth adhesiveness of 200 J / m 3 or less during mastication, a mouth cohesiveness at mastication of 0.1 to 1.0, and a surface area of 5 to 85 cm 2 , and is a gel. As long as the matrix contains phosphatidylcholine as a main component, the form at the time of ingestion is not particularly limited.
主成分であるフォスファチジルコリンは、脂肪酸基およびグリセリン基から成る組成物であるレシチンを採用している。 The main component, phosphatidylcholine, employs lecithin, which is a composition composed of a fatty acid group and a glycerin group.
レシチンとは、フォスファチジルコリンの他に、フォスファチジルイノシトール、フォスファチジルエタノールアミン、フォスファチジルセリン、フォスファチジン酸等のリン脂質を含む脂質製品のことをいう。 Lecithin refers to a lipid product containing phospholipids such as phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidic acid in addition to phosphatidylcholine.
すなわち、フォスファチジルコリンを含有していればレシチンであってもよく、例えば、卵黄を原料とする卵黄レシチンや、大豆を原料とする大豆レシチンを採用することができ、フォスファチジルコリン以外のリン脂質を併用することも可能である。 That is, lecithin may be used as long as it contains phosphatidylcholine. For example, egg yolk lecithin made from egg yolk or soybean lecithin made from soybean can be adopted, other than phosphatidylcholine. It is also possible to use phospholipids in combination.
また、フォスファチジルコリンは上述の如く生体生理機能に有効な成分ではあるが、リン脂質が不飽和脂肪酸であるため分子量が大きいため、そのままでは生体内で適切な吸収が行われず、期待する効果が得づらい場合もある。 In addition, phosphatidylcholine is an effective component for biophysiological function as described above, but since phospholipid is an unsaturated fatty acid and has a large molecular weight, it is not properly absorbed in the living body as it is, and the expected effect is obtained. May be difficult to obtain.
このような場合、リン脂質を酵素分解(加水分解)加工することにより低分子化(リゾ化)し、体内吸収に適した化学形であるリゾフォスファチジルコリンを脳機能改善組成物の主成分として採用しても良い。なお、本明細書においてフォスファチジルコリンは、リゾ化されていないフォスファチジルコリンは勿論のこと、リゾ化されたリゾフォスファチジルコリンも概念として含んでいる。 In such cases, phospholipids are enzymatically decomposed (hydrolyzed) to reduce their molecular weight (resolysis), and lysophosphatidylcholine, which is a chemical form suitable for absorption in the body, is the main component of the brain function improving composition. May be adopted as. In addition, in this specification, phosphatidylcholine includes not only unrezolated phosphatidylcholine but also lysolated lysophosphatidylcholine as a concept.
また、レシチンのリゾ化により、フォスファチジルコリンの他のリン脂質についてもリゾ化された化学形としている。従って、本実施形態におけるレシチンはリゾ化されたフォスファチジルコリンやフォスファチジルセリンを含むものであっても良く、また、フォスファチジルコリンやフォスファチジルセリンについても、それぞれリゾ化されたものであっても良い。 In addition, by rezolation of lecithin, other phospholipids of phosphatidylcholine are also in a lysolated chemical form. Therefore, the lecithin in the present embodiment may contain rezolated phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine are also rezolated respectively. It may be.
また、脳機能改善組成物を咀嚼した際に生じる食片のべたつき度合い、すなわち咀嚼時の口内付着性は200J/m3以下としている。この口内付着性が200J/m3を上回ると、脳機能改善組成物の食片が口腔内や咽頭部等に張り付き、唾液等の流下により溶出して誤嚥を生起する危険がある。口内付着性を200J/m3以下とすることで、誤嚥を回避して咽頭を滑らかに通過させる脳機能改善組成物とすることができる。 In addition, the degree of stickiness of food pieces generated when the brain function improving composition is chewed, that is, the adhesiveness to the mouth during mastication is 200 J / m 3 or less. If this intraoral adhesion exceeds 200 J / m 3 , there is a risk that food pieces of the brain function improving composition will stick to the oral cavity, pharynx, etc. and elute due to the flow of saliva, etc., causing aspiration. By setting the adhesion to the mouth to 200 J / m 3 or less, it is possible to obtain a brain function improving composition that avoids aspiration and allows the pharynx to pass smoothly.
また、脳機能改善組成物の口腔内での食片のまとまりやすさ、すなわち咀嚼時の口内凝集性を0.1〜1.0としている。この口内凝集性が、0.1を下回ると食塊が形成されにくくなり、嚥下を困難とするだけでなく誤嚥を発生させる。口内凝集性を0.1〜1.0とすることで重度の嚥下困難者であっても、食片の再凝集により食塊を形成することができ嚥下を容易にすることができる。 In addition, the ease of cohesion of food pieces in the oral cavity of the brain function improving composition, that is, the cohesiveness in the mouth during mastication is set to 0.1 to 1.0. If the cohesiveness in the mouth is less than 0.1, it becomes difficult to form a bolus, which not only makes swallowing difficult but also causes aspiration. By setting the oral cohesiveness to 0.1 to 1.0, even a person with severe dysphagia can form a bolus by reaggregating the food pieces, and swallowing can be facilitated.
また、脳機能改善組成物の表面積は、5〜85cm2となるように形成している。この脳機能改善組成物の表面積は、口腔内における舌や頬、口蓋粘膜や唾液との接触面積に影響し、咀嚼のしやすさ、改善組成物の口腔内における溶出速度、口あたり、舌ざわり、喉越し等の食感に深く関係している。 In addition, the surface area of the brain function improving composition is formed to be 5 to 85 cm 2 . The surface area of this brain function improving composition affects the contact area with the tongue and cheeks, palatal mucosa and saliva in the oral cavity, and the ease of chewing, the dissolution rate of the improving composition in the oral cavity, the mouthfeel, and the texture of the tongue. It is deeply related to the texture such as over the throat.
表面積が5cm2を下回ると脳機能改善組成物の剤型の大きさが小型化しすぎて咀嚼を困難とするばかりか食感を損なわせ、溶出速度を遅延させてしまう。 If the surface area is less than 5 cm 2 , the size of the dosage form of the brain function improving composition becomes too small, which not only makes chewing difficult but also impairs the texture and delays the dissolution rate.
一方で、表面積が85cm2を上回ると脳機能改善組成物の剤型の大きさが大型化しすぎて特に咀嚼困難者にとって咀嚼を困難とし、咀嚼によって食片化したとしても口腔内容量に対して過剰な量の食片が形成されてしまい咀嚼の阻害を助長するばかりか不快な食感を与える。 On the other hand, if the surface area exceeds 85 cm 2 , the size of the formulation of the brain function improving composition becomes too large, which makes it difficult to chew, especially for those who have difficulty chewing, and even if it is chewed into pieces, it is relative to the oral volume. An excessive amount of food pieces are formed, which not only promotes the inhibition of mastication but also gives an unpleasant texture.
さらには、口腔内に過剰量となった食片の嚥下を急ぐあまり一部の食片は食塊を形成できずに咽頭部を通過するため誤嚥を生起する危険性が高まってしまう。 Furthermore, the risk of aspiration increases because some of the food pieces cannot form a bolus and pass through the pharynx because the excessive amount of food pieces in the oral cavity is swallowed too quickly.
従って、脳機能改善組成物の表面積を5〜85cm2となるように形成することにより、摂食者、特に咀嚼困難者や嚥下困難者にとって摂取しやすい改善組成物に形成することができ、優れた食感と速やかな改善組成物の溶出速度を実現可能としている。 Therefore, by forming the surface area of the brain function improving composition to be 5 to 85 cm 2 , it can be formed into an improved composition that is easy to ingest for food consumers, especially those who have difficulty chewing or swallowing, which is excellent. It is possible to realize a smooth texture and a rapid elution rate of the improved composition.
また、脳機能改善組成物をグミ状やゼリー状に形成する際に混入する基材のうち、増粘剤は以下のものを採用することができる。 Further, among the base materials mixed when the brain function improving composition is formed into a gummy shape or a jelly shape, the following thickeners can be adopted.
例えば、タマリンド種子多糖類、グルコマンナン、カラギーナン、寒天、ローカストビーンガム、グアガム、キサンタンガム、ジェランガム、ネイティブジェランガム、ペクチン、コラーゲン、アルギン酸ナトリウム、カルボキシメチルセルロース、アラビアガム、微結晶セルロース、ゼラチンなどの素材を単体または、これらの混合物を配合して使用しても良い。 For example, tamarind seed polysaccharides, glucomannan, carrageenan, agar, locust bean gum, guagam, xanthan gum, gellan gum, native gellan gum, pectin, collagen, sodium alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, arabic gum, microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin, etc. Alternatively, a mixture thereof may be blended and used.
また、脳機能改善組成物をグミ状にした場合には、ゴム硬度値を1〜50とすることで、咀嚼により唾液の分泌を促して脳機能改善組成物の溶出を助長すると共に、咀嚼時の筋肉運動の刺激により頭部の血流量を増加させて、脳機能改善組成物から溶出し舌下吸収されたフォスファチジルコリンを効率よく脳へ到達させることができる。 In addition, when the brain function improving composition is made into a gummy shape, the rubber hardness value is set to 1 to 50 to promote saliva secretion by chewing and promote elution of the brain function improving composition, and at the time of chewing. By stimulating the muscle movement of the head, the blood flow in the head can be increased, and phosphatidylcholine eluted from the brain function improving composition and absorbed sublingually can reach the brain efficiently.
特に、咀嚼困難者に摂取させるべくグミ状の脳機能改善組成物を形成する場合には、咀嚼硬度がJIS K6253タイプAデュロメータによるゴム硬度値で1〜50の範囲内とすることにより、比較的弱い咬合力で、しかも、適度な食感を損なうことなく容易に食片化可能な脳機能改善組成物とすることができる。 In particular, when forming a gummy-shaped brain function improving composition to be ingested by a person who has difficulty chewing, the chewing hardness is set within the range of 1 to 50 in the rubber hardness value by the JIS K6253 Type A durometer, so that it is relatively relatively. It is possible to obtain a brain function improving composition which has a weak occlusal force and can be easily sharded without impairing an appropriate texture.
また、グミ状の脳機能改善組成物の形状は特に限定されるものではなく、略三角柱状、略サイコロ状や略半球状等のあらゆる立体形状に形成することが可能であるが、表面積を5〜15cm2としておくことが望ましい。このような表面積としておくことにより噛み切り可能なサイズとなり、また、摂食者が噛み切らない場合においても成分の十分な溶出速度を確保できる。 The shape of the gummy-shaped brain function improving composition is not particularly limited, and can be formed into any three-dimensional shape such as a substantially triangular columnar shape, a substantially dice shape, or a substantially hemispherical shape, but the surface area is 5 It is desirable to keep it at ~ 15 cm 2 . By setting such a surface area, the size can be chewed off, and a sufficient elution rate of the components can be ensured even when the predator does not chew off.
また、グミ状の脳機能改善組成物における非咀嚼状態でのフォスファチジルコリンの口腔内における溶出速度、すなわち、口腔内で脳機能改善組成物が溶けきる時間(以下、単に口腔内溶出時間と称す。)は、大凡3分以内とするのが望ましい。この溶出速度(時間)は、主に、脳機能改善組成物の混合剤とレシチンとの混合比によって適宜調整することができる。 In addition, the dissolution rate of phosphatidylcholine in the oral cavity in the gummy-like brain function improving composition in a non-chewed state, that is, the time during which the brain function improving composition is completely dissolved in the oral cavity (hereinafter, simply referred to as the oral dissolution time). It is desirable that it is within about 3 minutes. This elution rate (time) can be appropriately adjusted mainly by the mixing ratio of the mixture of the brain function improving composition and lecithin.
なお、本明細書において非咀嚼状態とは、口腔内において、常時口腔内表面が唾液で湿っている状態であって、脳機能改善組成物が咀嚼により食片化されていない状態のことをいう。従って、口腔内に唾液が不足している場合には、脳機能改善組成物が咀嚼により食片化されていなければ、咀嚼運動や舌運動により口腔内に唾液を分泌させて唾液を潤滑させてもよい。 In the present specification, the non-chewing state means a state in which the surface of the oral cavity is constantly moistened with saliva and the brain function improving composition is not chewed into pieces. .. Therefore, when saliva is insufficient in the oral cavity, if the brain function improving composition is not eclipsed by chewing, saliva is secreted into the oral cavity by chewing movement or tongue movement to lubricate the saliva. May be good.
また、脳機能改善組成物をゼリー状、すなわちゼリー型にした場合には、咀嚼硬度が1〜15kN/m2であり、口内付着性が150J/m3以下であり、咀嚼時の口内凝集性が0.1〜0.9であり、表面積が35〜85cm2であることとしてもよい。 In addition, when the brain function improving composition is jelly-like, that is, jelly-type, the masticatory hardness is 1 to 15 kN / m 2 , the oral adhesion is 150 J / m 3 or less, and the oral cohesiveness at the time of mastication. May be 0.1-0.9 and the surface area may be 35-85 cm 2 .
咀嚼硬度が1kN/m2を下回ると脳機能改善組成物をゲル化してゼリー状に形成することが出来ず、一方で15kN/m2を上回るとゼリー独特の弾力による質感を損なうだけでなく咀嚼時の反発力が高くなりすぎて食片化することが困難となる。 If the masticatory hardness is less than 1 kN / m 2 , the brain function improving composition cannot be gelled to form a jelly, while if it exceeds 15 kN / m 2 , not only the texture due to the elasticity peculiar to the jelly is impaired, but also mastication. The repulsive force of time becomes too high and it becomes difficult to make it into a piece of food.
従って、咀嚼硬度を1〜15kN/m2とすれば、咀嚼時に上顎や下顎に余計な反力を付与することなく脳機能改善組成物を食片化することができ、特に咀嚼困難者にとって好ましい。 Therefore, if the masticatory hardness is 1 to 15 kN / m 2 , the brain function improving composition can be eclipsed without applying an extra reaction force to the upper and lower jaws at the time of mastication, which is particularly preferable for people with masticatory difficulty. ..
また、ゼリー型の口内付着性は、150J/m3を上回ると嚥下の際に脳機能改善組成物が咽頭部などに張り付いて詰まり気道閉塞による窒息を引き起こす危険性があるため、150J/m3以下とすることでこのような危険性を回避できる。 In addition, if the jelly-type oral adhesion exceeds 150 J / m 3 , there is a risk that the brain function improving composition will stick to the pharynx and clog when swallowing, causing choking due to airway obstruction. Such a risk can be avoided by setting it to 3 or less.
また、ゼリー型の咀嚼時の口内凝集性が0.1を下回ると上述の如く食塊の形成が困難となり、0.9を上回ると脳機能改善組成物の食片同士が即座に凝集をおこしてしまい咀嚼の進行を却って妨げ、誤嚥を招来してしまう。 In addition, if the mouth cohesiveness during mastication of the jelly type is less than 0.1, it becomes difficult to form bolus as described above, and if it exceeds 0.9, the edible pieces of the brain function improving composition immediately aggregate with each other, resulting in mastication. It hinders the progress and causes aspiration.
従って、口内凝集性を0.1〜0.9とすることで、咀嚼により食片化した脳機能改善組成物を嚥下に際して誤嚥を防止する適切な大きさの食塊を形成しやすくしている。 Therefore, by setting the oral cohesiveness to 0.1 to 0.9, it is easy to form a bolus of an appropriate size to prevent aspiration when swallowing the brain function improving composition that has been chewed into pieces.
また、ゼリー型の脳機能改善組成物の形状は、口腔内に摂取した際の表面積が35〜85cm2であれば特に限定されることはない。例えば、ゼリー型の脳機能改善組成物は、チューブ等の収容容器から口腔内に適量絞り出すようにしてもよいし、予め上述した表面積を有するように区画した収容容器に成型収容してもよい。 The shape of the jelly-type brain function improving composition is not particularly limited as long as the surface area when ingested into the oral cavity is 35 to 85 cm 2 . For example, the jelly-type brain function improving composition may be squeezed into the oral cavity in an appropriate amount from a storage container such as a tube, or may be molded and stored in a storage container partitioned so as to have the above-mentioned surface area.
また、ゼリー状の脳機能改善組成物における非咀嚼状態でのフォスファチジルコリンの口腔内における溶出速度、すなわち、口腔内溶出時間は、大凡2分以内とするのが望ましい。この溶出速度(時間)も、主に、脳機能改善組成物の混合剤とレシチンとの混合比によって適宜調整することができる。 Further, it is desirable that the dissolution rate of phosphatidylcholine in the oral cavity in the jelly-like brain function improving composition in a non-chewed state, that is, the dissolution time in the oral cavity is approximately 2 minutes or less. This elution rate (time) can also be appropriately adjusted mainly by the mixing ratio of the mixture of the brain function improving composition and lecithin.
また、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物には、機能性補助成分や調味成分、舌下吸収促進剤、嚥下困難化呈味成分、賦形剤、水等を配合するようにしても良い。 Further, the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment may contain a functional auxiliary component, a seasoning component, a sublingual absorption promoter, a dysphagia taste component, an excipient, water and the like. ..
機能性補助成分は、脳機能改善組成物に対し、例えばビタミン補給機能など更なる機能性を付与するために添加される成分である。このような機能性補助成分の一例としては、例えば、ビタミンAやビタミンD類、ビタミンE類、ビタミンB6、ビタミンB12、フォスファチジルセリン、ナイアシン等を挙げることができる。 The functional auxiliary component is a component added to impart further functionality such as a vitamin supplement function to the brain function improving composition. Examples of such functional auxiliary components include vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, phosphatidylserine, niacin and the like.
調味成分は、脳機能改善組成物に風味付けをするための成分である。調味成分としては、例えば、果汁や香料、酸味料(クエン酸等)とすることができる。 The seasoning component is a component for flavoring the brain function improving composition. As the seasoning component, for example, fruit juice, flavor, acidulant (citric acid, etc.) can be used.
舌下吸収促進剤は、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物において主成分として含有されるフォスファチジルコリンやレシチンの舌下吸収を促進するための剤である。この舌下吸収促進剤は、ビタミンCと、ビタミンB2と、葉酸と、パントテン酸塩と、ビタミンB1とにより構成される。 The sublingual absorption promoter is an agent for promoting sublingual absorption of phosphatidylcholine and lecithin contained as main components in the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment. This sublingual absorption enhancer is composed of vitamin C, vitamin B2, folic acid, pantothenate, and vitamin B1.
本発明者は、フォスファチジルコリンを用いた長年に亘る研究において、同フォスファチジルコリンがそれ単独では生体内へ取り込まれにくいことを脳機能改善効果の測定結果より見出している。 The present inventor has found in many years of research using phosphatidylcholine that phosphatidylcholine alone is difficult to be taken into the living body from the measurement results of the brain function improving effect.
このような状況の中、本発明者は、ビタミンC、ビタミンB2、葉酸、パントテン酸塩、ビタミンB1よりなる舌下吸収促進剤を併用することにより、フォスファチジルコリンの舌下吸収効率が飛躍的に高まることを見出した。 Under such circumstances, the present inventor dramatically increases the sublingual absorption efficiency of phosphatidylcholine by using a sublingual absorption promoter consisting of vitamin C, vitamin B2, folic acid, pantothenate, and vitamin B1 in combination. I found that it would increase.
特に、この舌下吸収促進剤は、脳機能改善組成物100重量部あたり、30×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンCと、0.45×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンB1と、0.5×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のビタミンB2と、0.081×10-6〜300×10-3重量部の葉酸と、2×10-6〜300×10-3重量部のパントテン酸とで構成するのが望ましい。このような構成とすることにより、フォスファチジルコリンの舌下吸収効率を高めることができ、消化管経由でフォスファチジルコリンが吸収された場合に比して、効果的かつ速やかに脳機能改善効果を発揮させることができる。 In particular, this sublingual absorption enhancer contains 30 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 parts by weight of vitamin C and 0.45 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 by weight per 100 parts by weight of the brain function improving composition. Vitamin B1 and 0.5 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 parts by weight Vitamin B2 and 0.081 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 -3 parts by weight folic acid and 2 × 10 -6 to 300 × 10 It is desirable to compose with -3 parts by weight of pantothenic acid. With such a configuration, the sublingual absorption efficiency of phosphatidylcholine can be enhanced, and the brain function is improved more effectively and promptly than when phosphatidylcholine is absorbed via the digestive tract. It can be effective.
嚥下困難化呈味成分は、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物の更なる特徴の一つであり、テクスチャにより嚥下時の誤嚥防止を図る本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物において、更に誤嚥防止を堅実なものとすべく、嚥下が忌避されるような味を呈する成分を嚥下困難化呈味成分として添加しておき、嚥下そのものを困難化して誤嚥を更に回避するという発想に基づくものである。 The dysphagia taste component is one of the further features of the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment, and in the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment, which aims to prevent aspiration during swallowing by texture. Furthermore, in order to make the prevention of aspiration more solid, the idea is to add a component that has a taste that avoids swallowing as a dysphagia taste component, making swallowing itself difficult and further avoiding aspiration. It is based on.
嚥下困難化呈味成分は、嚥下が困難となるような味を呈する成分であれば特に限定されるものではないが、苦味や辛味など脳機能改善組成物を口に含むこと自体が阻害されるような刺激を呈する成分は好ましくない。また、調味成分により味付けされた味が相殺されてしまうような成分も好ましくない。 The dysphagic taste component is not particularly limited as long as it is a component that exhibits a taste that makes swallowing difficult, but the inclusion of a brain function improving composition such as bitterness or pungent taste in the mouth itself is inhibited. Ingredients that exhibit such irritation are not preferred. Further, it is not preferable to use a component that cancels the taste seasoned by the seasoning component.
嚥下困難化呈味成分が呈する味の一例として好ましくは、例えば魚臭や海草臭など、一種の生臭さとして感じられるような味とすることができる。 As an example of the taste exhibited by the dysphagia taste component, it can be preferably a taste that can be perceived as a kind of fishy odor, such as a fish odor or a seaweed odor.
特に、このような味を呈する嚥下困難化呈味成分としては、具体的には、魚などの海産物に由来するDHAやEPA、又はこれらを含有する油を挙げることができ、より好ましくは、イワシや鯖などの青魚由来のDHAやEPA、又はこれらを含有する油とすることができる。 In particular, examples of the dysphagic taste component exhibiting such a taste include DHA and EPA derived from marine products such as fish, and oils containing these, and more preferably, sardines. It can be DHA or EPA derived from blue fish such as mackerel or mackerel, or an oil containing these.
このような成分を嚥下困難化呈味成分として脳機能改善組成物に含有させておくことにより、調味成分により味付けされた脳機能改善組成物そのものの味は残しながらも、嚥下が困難化されることにより誤嚥の発生を防止することができ、また、嚥下した場合であっても所定のテクスチャを有することにより堅実に誤嚥を防ぐことができる。 By including such a component in the brain function improving composition as a dysphagia taste component, swallowing becomes difficult while retaining the taste of the brain function improving composition itself seasoned with the seasoning component. As a result, the occurrence of aspiration can be prevented, and even when swallowed, the aspiration can be steadily prevented by having a predetermined texture.
また、嚥下困難化呈味成分を前述の舌下吸収促進剤と併用した脳機能改善組成物にあっては、嚥下困難化呈味成分により脳機能改善組成物の口腔内での滞留時間が長くなり、舌下吸収促進剤の効果と相俟って、更なる舌下吸収を見込むことができ、より効率的且つ速やかな脳機能改善効果を生起させることができる。 Further, in the brain function improving composition in which the dysphagia taste component is used in combination with the above-mentioned sublingual absorption promoter, the retention time of the brain function improving composition in the oral cavity is long due to the dysphagia taste component. Therefore, in combination with the effect of the sublingual absorption promoter, further sublingual absorption can be expected, and a more efficient and prompt effect of improving brain function can be produced.
特に、脳機能改善組成物100重量部あたり少なくとも3×10-3重量部〜2重量部の範囲内で嚥下困難化呈味成分を添加しておくことにより、脳機能改善組成物の反射的な嚥下が抑制され、口腔内での滞留時間を確保が可能となる。 In particular, by adding a dysphagic taste component within the range of at least 3 × 10 -3 parts by weight to 2 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the brain function improving composition, the brain function improving composition is reflexive. Swallowing is suppressed and the residence time in the oral cavity can be secured.
また、賦形剤は食品等に一般的に用いられるものであれば特に限定されるものではなく、例えばデンプンを用いることができる。デンプンを賦形剤として用いた場合には、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物100重量部あたり3重量部以下であれば、テクスチャへの影響はほぼ無視できる。 Further, the excipient is not particularly limited as long as it is generally used for foods and the like, and for example, starch can be used. When starch is used as an excipient, the effect on the texture can be almost ignored if it is 3 parts by weight or less per 100 parts by weight of the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment.
以下、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物について、製造例を交えつつその実施例を説明する。 Hereinafter, examples of the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to production examples.

上記結果からも分かるように、ビタミンC、ビタミンB2、葉酸、パントテン酸塩、ビタミンB1より構成された舌下吸収促進剤を添加したGu-b01によれば、いずれか1種の成分が欠けたGu-b02〜Gu-b06に比して、顕著な脳機能改善効果が観察された。また、咀嚼せずに飲み込んだ場合においてはこのような顕著な脳機能改善効果が見られないことから、舌下吸収促進剤の存在により、口腔内粘膜を介した効率的な主成分の摂取、主に舌下吸収が促進されていることが示された。 As can be seen from the above results, according to Gu-b01 to which a sublingual absorption promoter composed of vitamin C, vitamin B2, folic acid, pantothenate, and vitamin B1 was added, one of the components was missing. Compared with Gu-b02 to Gu-b06, a remarkable effect of improving brain function was observed. In addition, since such a remarkable effect of improving brain function is not observed when swallowed without chewing, the presence of a sublingual absorption promoter enables efficient ingestion of the main component through the oral mucosa. It was shown that sublingual absorption was mainly promoted.
同様に、舌下吸収促進剤を添加したJe-b01によれば、いずれか1種の成分が欠けたJe-b02〜Je-b06に比して、顕著な脳機能改善効果が観察された。また、咀嚼せずに飲み込んだ場合においてはこのような顕著な脳機能改善効果が見られないことから、舌下吸収促進剤の存在により、口腔内粘膜を介した効率的な主成分の摂取、主に舌下吸収が促進されていることが示された。 Similarly, according to Je-b01 to which a sublingual absorption promoter was added, a remarkable effect of improving brain function was observed as compared with Je-b02 to Je-b06 lacking any one of the components. In addition, since such a remarkable effect of improving brain function is not observed when swallowed without chewing, the presence of a sublingual absorption promoter enables efficient ingestion of the main component through the oral mucosa. It was shown that sublingual absorption was mainly promoted.

〔10.嚥下困難化呈味成分の有無による脳機能改善効果の検討〕
次に、嚥下困難化呈味成分としてDHAやEPAを用い、嚥下困難化呈味成分の有無による脳機能改善効果の違いについて検討を行った。
[10. Examination of brain function improvement effect by the presence or absence of dysphagia taste component]
Next, using DHA and EPA as the dysphagic taste component, the difference in the brain function improving effect depending on the presence or absence of the dysphagic taste component was examined.
試験に先立ち、前述した基準グミ製剤の調製法や基準ゼリーの調製法に準じて、下記表15〜表18に示す脳機能改善組成物の調製を行った。なお、本試験では、グミ状又はゼリー状の脳機能改善組成物について、舌下吸収促進剤及び嚥下困難化呈味成分を含まないものや、舌下吸収促進剤を含み嚥下困難化呈味成分を含まないもの、嚥下困難化呈味成分の量を増減させたもの等について検討した。
次に、調製したグミ製剤Gu-a01、Gu-b01、Gu-c01〜Gu-c06、及びゼリー製剤Je-a01、Je-b01、Je-c01〜Je-c06を用い、喫食時に嚥下しそうになるか否かについて検討を行った。具体的には65〜78歳の被験者10名(男性3名、女性7名)を対象にそれぞれの製剤を摂取させ、一般に反射的に行われるとされている嚥下行動について、添加した嚥下困難化呈味成分により嚥下行動がどの程度抑制されるかについて評価させた。嚥下が躊躇されることはない…1点、わずかに嚥下が躊躇される…2点、嚥下が躊躇される…3点、嚥下に大いに抵抗を感じる…4点、嚥下できない…5点として、各製剤毎の評価点の平均を算出した。また、平均点が2点以上4点未満のものを嚥下困難化呈味成分の効果ありと判断した。その結果を表19に示す。
表19からもわかるように、嚥下困難化呈味成分を含有しないグミ製剤Gu-a01、Gu-b01や、ゼリー製剤Je-a01、Je-b01はいずれも嚥下が殆ど躊躇されることはなく、舌下吸収を促進するにあたっては、口腔内において喫食した脳機能改善組成物を留めておくよう意識しておく必要があることが示唆された。 As can be seen from Table 19, the gummy preparations Gu-a01 and Gu-b01 and the jelly preparations Je-a01 and Je-b01, which do not contain dysphagic taste components, hardly hesitate to swallow. It was suggested that in order to promote sublingual absorption, it is necessary to be conscious of retaining the brain function improving composition eaten in the oral cavity.
一方、嚥下困難化呈味成分を含有するグミ製剤Gu-c01〜Gu-c06や、ゼリー製剤Je-c01〜Je-c06は、いずれも評価平均点が2.1〜3.9の範囲内となり、口腔内に留めておくことは可能で吐き気を催すほど嚥下が阻害されるものではないものの、嚥下は意識的に行う必要がある傾向が見出された。 On the other hand, the gummy preparations Gu-c01 to Gu-c06 and the jelly preparations Je-c01 to Je-c06, which contain dysphagic taste components, all had an average evaluation score in the range of 2.1 to 3.9 and were placed in the oral cavity. Although it is possible to keep it and swallowing is not disturbed enough to cause nausea, it has been found that swallowing needs to be done consciously.
また嚥下困難化呈味成分について、DHAやEPAとの間に顕著な差は見られず、いずれも嚥下困難化呈味成分として機能しうることが確認された。 In addition, there was no significant difference between DHA and EPA in terms of dysphagic taste components, and it was confirmed that both of them can function as dysphagic taste components.
これらの結果から、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物においては、脳機能改善組成物100重量部あたり少なくとも3×10-3重量部〜2重量部の範囲内で嚥下困難化呈味成分を添加しておくことにより、脳機能改善組成物の反射的な嚥下が抑制され、口腔内での滞留時間を確保可能であることが示された。 From these results, in the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment, the dysphagic taste component is contained in the range of at least 3 × 10 -3 parts by weight to 2 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the brain function improving composition. It was shown that by adding the composition, the reflexive swallowing of the brain function improving composition was suppressed, and the residence time in the oral cavity could be secured.
次いで、これらの16種類のグミ状又はゼリー状脳機能改善組成物を用い、前述の〔6.脳機能改善効果確認試験〕と同様に脳機能改善効果が見られるか否かについて検証を行った。なお本試験において各製剤の喫食方法(咀嚼又は飲み込み)は、特に指示しなかった。その結果を以下に示す。
これらの結果からもわかるように、喫食方法を特に指定せず摂取させた場合、嚥下困難化呈味成分を含有するグミ製剤Gu-c01〜Gu-c06や、ゼリー製剤Je-c01〜Je-c06は、嚥下困難化呈味成分を含有しないグミ製剤Gu-a01、Gu-b01や、ゼリー製剤Je-a01、Je-b01に比して、脳機能改善効果が顕著に向上することが示された。これは、嚥下困難化呈味成分の存在により、嚥下動作が抑制され、脳機能改善組成物の口腔内における滞留時間が延長化されたためであると考えられる。 As can be seen from these results, when ingested without specifying the eating method, gummy preparations Gu-c01 to Gu-c06 and jelly preparations Je-c01 to Je-c06 containing dysphagic taste components It was shown that the effect of improving brain function was significantly improved as compared with the gummy preparations Gu-a01 and Gu-b01 and the jelly preparations Je-a01 and Je-b01, which do not contain dysphagia taste components. .. It is considered that this is because the presence of the dysphagic taste component suppressed the swallowing motion and prolonged the residence time of the brain function improving composition in the oral cavity.
また、付言すれば、これらの結果から、ゲルマトリクス中に主成分としてのフォスファチジルコリンを含み、経口摂取により脳の活性化を促す脳機能改善組成物におけるDHA又はEPAの使用は、脳機能改善組成物の口腔内滞留時間を延長し、舌下吸収促進に寄与することが示された。 In addition, from these results, the use of DHA or EPA in a brain function improving composition containing phosphatidylcholine as a main component in the gel matrix and promoting brain activation by oral ingestion is a brain function. It was shown that the improved composition prolongs the oral residence time and contributes to the promotion of sublingual absorption.
上述してきたように、本実施形態に係る脳機能改善組成物は、ゲルマトリクス中に主成分としてのフォスファチジルコリンを含み、経口摂取により脳の活性化を促す脳機能改善組成物であって、咀嚼時の口内付着性を200J/m3以下とし、咀嚼時の口内凝集性を0.1〜1.0とし、表面積を5〜85cm2としたため、咀嚼による食感を失わせることなく、誤嚥を防止することができ、しかも、腸管吸収だけでなく、舌、口蓋粘膜、頬粘膜などの口腔内粘膜吸収のうち、主に舌の毛細血管へ直接的に吸収させる舌下吸収を助長して脳へ有効成分であるフォスファチジルコリンを到達させて脳機能改善効果を得るための脳機能改善組成物を提供することができる。また、脳内でのα波の誘導を促すことが可能な組成物を提供することができる。 As described above, the brain function improving composition according to the present embodiment is a brain function improving composition containing phosphatidylcholine as a main component in the gel matrix and promoting the activation of the brain by oral ingestion. , Sublingual adhesion during mastication was set to 200 J / m 3 or less, oral cohesiveness during mastication was set to 0.1 to 1.0, and surface area was set to 5 to 85 cm 2 , preventing aspiration without losing the texture due to mastication. In addition to intestinal absorption, of the oral mucosal absorption of the tongue, palatal mucosa, buccal mucosa, etc., it promotes sublingual absorption, which is mainly absorbed directly into the capillaries of the tongue, to the brain. It is possible to provide a brain function improving composition for reaching the active ingredient phosphatidylcholine to obtain a brain function improving effect. In addition, it is possible to provide a composition capable of promoting the induction of α waves in the brain.
最後に、上述した各実施の形態の説明は本発明の一例であり、本発明は上述の実施の形態に限定されることはない。このため、上述した各実施の形態以外であっても、本発明に係る技術的思想を逸脱しない範囲であれば、設計等に応じて種々の変更が可能であることは勿論である。 Finally, the description of each embodiment described above is an example of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. Therefore, it goes without saying that various changes can be made according to the design and the like as long as the technical idea of the present invention is not deviated from the above-described embodiments.
