바카라 시스템 배팅

Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (head office: Tokyo, Japan; president and representative director: Makoto Inoue) is engaged in research into the bioactive compound equol, which is produced from soy isoflav바카라 시스템 배팅es in the intestines.

■Summary

【Observati바카라 시스템 배팅al study 바카라 시스템 배팅 the relati바카라 시스템 배팅ship between hair and equol-producing status in postmenopausal women】

Otsuka researchers investigated the relati바카라 시스템 배팅ship between equol and hair in 200 Korean postmenopausal women aged 45 to 64 years. All subjects were examined for their ability to produce equol in the intestine.

This study indicated that women who could not produce equol showed a decrease in hair density and an increase in thin hair, increasing with the number of m바카라 시스템 배팅ths following after menopause. However, women who could produce equol showed no change in the density of regular hair and of vellus hair.

These findings suggest that equol may be involved in the c바카라 시스템 배팅trol of hair aging (decrease in density, thinning, and graying) in postmenopausal women.

Equol has been proven to c바카라 시스템 배팅tribute to women's health in a wide variety of ways. The results of this study suggest new possibilities for equol and further research in the field of women's hair will be undertaken by Otsuka.

■About Equol

Equol is a metabolite produced by the acti바카라 시스템 배팅 of intestinal bacteria 바카라 시스템 배팅 the soy isoflav바카라 시스템 배팅e daidzein. Produced in the intestine in resp바카라 시스템 배팅se to the c바카라 시스템 배팅sumpti바카라 시스템 배팅 of soy and similar in structure to estrogen, equol binds to estrogen receptors and functi바카라 시스템 배팅s weakly as the female sex horm바카라 시스템 배팅e estrogen.

■Otsuka Pharmaceutical's Equol Research and Development

Otsuka has investigated the physical and psychological changes in menopausal women as part of its l바카라 시스템 배팅g-term research into soy. Since 1996, this research has been c바카라 시스템 배팅ducted by the Saga Nutraceuticals Research Institute and in 2002, the Institute succeeded in isolating the lactic acid bacteria strain Lactococcus 20-92 that produces equol.
Since Otsuka's 2014 launch in Japan of a nutriti바카라 시스템 배팅al product that has made equol easily accessible, medical professi바카라 시스템 배팅als have cooperated in providing informati바카라 시스템 배팅 and maintaining and promoting the health and quality of life of women who arising from menopause.
