Healthy Food Science Research Group

Research Project

Japan is a super-aged society. In order to achieve an extension of the healthy life expectancy, it is important to prevent aging-related diseases such as sleep disorders and impaired cognition.　Recent studies have revealed that circadian clock is involved in the onset of these aging-related diseases. This “Chrono-nutrition” project is focused on the development of natural substances and technologies for the prevention of sleep disorders, psychiatric diseases, impaired cognition, and metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes.

Research Project

Recently, we are in an aging society, the development of functional substances that help to lead a healthy life is an important research topic. Therefore, we are developing a bioassay system based on luminescence imaging to search for various health-maintaining functional substances, and searching for functional substances that are effective in immune function, skincare, metabolic syndrome, mental syndrome, etc.

Research Project

Skeletal muscle comprises about 40% of body weight in human and plays important roles in regulate energy metabolism and brain function. We aim to develop a novel diet therapy to improve quality and quantity of skeletal muscle.
