Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The term "pre-symptomatic" refers to the state of "fluctuation" between health and disease. Japan's "Strategy for Health and Medical Care" defines "pre-symptomatic state. "1 As Japan enters a super-aged society, preventive medicine must be established from the two main perspectives of extending healthy life expectancy and reducing medical and nursing care costs in order to realize healthy lives for people, and the need for measures to combat pre-symptomatic states is being called for. The establishment of preventive medicine is required from the two main perspectives of extending healthy life expectancy and reducing medical and nursing care costs. At the same time, however, challenges remain. In some cases, pre-symptomatic diseases have no subjective symptoms, and therefore, people often overlook their own ailments. Since no clear criteria or specific interventions have yet been established for pre-symptomatic diseases, we will explore the possibility of functional foods contributing to the treatment of pre-symptomatic diseases.
