2. Description of the Related Art Today, as so-called functional foods, foods having functions for improving physical strength and promoting health are provided. BACKGROUND ART As functional foods of this kind, those containing octacosanol or a primary aliphatic higher alcohol similar thereto are known. This octacosanol or a similar primary aliphatic higher alcohol was discovered as a physiologically active substance in wheat germ oil, and it efficiently consumes oxygen into cells to increase glycogen consumption and serve as an energy source. It is believed that glycogen is consumed more efficiently, energy production is increased, and endurance is increased.

[Function] Octacosanol or a similar primary aliphatic higher alcohol, as described above, enhances the consumption of glycogen by efficiently incorporating oxygen into cells, and makes glycogen or the like serving as an energy source more efficient. It is considered that it is consumed, the amount of energy produced is increased, and the durability is increased. On the other hand, L-carnitine is a carrier used for long-chain fatty acid metabolism, and transports them through the inner membrane of mitochondria and supplies them to β-oxidation, thereby promoting the energy metabolism of myocardium and skeletal muscle. is there. Therefore, it is considered that the supply of oxygen and the supply of long-chain fatty acids are both promoted by the action of both, and the energy metabolism is further promoted.
