National guidelines for foods is necessary for improving immunity (corona Measures 3)
Ingestion of
vitamins and minerals is important for COVID-19 measures (COVID-19 measures 4)
,
Improve immunity (COVID-19 Measures 2),
How to inactivate coronavirus (COVID-19 Measures 1),
The invention of vaccines and therapeutic agents has become an urgent
task for the new corona countermeasures, but it takes time until clear
results are obtained, and the spread of infection gains momentum during
that time, causing more damage is brought to the world.
In order to fully mobilize Japan's power to deal with this measure, know-how
in various fields such as medicine, pharmacy and nutrition is required.
Japan is a country of longevity as something that can be proud of to the world. A large number of people are conducting research on various foods to discover the reason (3rd place in the male world, 81.41 years old, second place in the female world 87.45 years old, announced by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare in 2019).
A longevity country means having a strong immunity and having a body that can overcome cancer and infectious diseases even with age, and it is important to research how this immunity can be effectively obtained.
If immunity-enhancing foods are clarified, the need to take measures in
a fuss every time due to changes in infectious disease types will diminish.
Corona's mortality rate in Japan is much lower than in Europe and America,
and this is why Factor X is of interest. It is said that this may be due
to lifestyle habits such as taking off shoes and not shaking hands or hugging.
Another possibility is that food is an important point.
The new type of corona countermeasure is currently centered on keep social
distance, and it has already been proved that this is effective, but at
the same time, this method limits people's activities and results in economic
contraction. It's a big problem.
As a means to solve these problems, it would be very meaningful to compile
the experts on medical,immunity,nutrition as a nation, and inform their
study results as soon as possible to the public.
There are many candidates for immune-enhancing foods, as shown below, and it is necessary to set common judgment criteria and review them again.
1. Sticky foods: natto, yam, mekabu, okra,
2. Fermented foods: miso, soy sauce, sake, yogurt, black vinegar
3. Foods with bactericidal effect: ginger, umeboshi, green tea
4. Polyphenol: Tomato lycopene, apple polyphenol,
5. Vitamins: A,B,C,D,E
6. Minerals: calcium, zinc, magnesium
In addition to food, improving the blood flow and lymph flow by exercise
are also included.
A famous national guideline is the "Designers Foods Program"
by the National Cancer Institute of the United States, where foods that
are considered to be effective in preventing cancer are displayed in a
pyramid format. However, this study has been suspended because the effective
ingredients and amounts of foods vary from region to region and cannot
be generalized. However, this list has given many cancer researchers a
lot of guidance and has had a great impact. In the case of Japan, there
is a high possibility that more effective guidelines will be completed
because it does not include diverse regions like the United States.
