Replicability of the effect of Galactosylsucrose-containing food for specified health uses on fecal improvement in the case of availableness on usual life

Abstract

Food for specified health uses is permitted one by one, and the specific health effect has to be certainly based on the scientific evidences. These evidences must be based on the results from the experimental protocol and be gotten under several experimental regulations. It has not been clarified whether the result of specific health effects are replicated and applicable or not, in the case of availableness on usual life. Oligosaccharides and sugar alcohols have the beneficial health effects and are often used for the ingredients of the food for specified health uses. The aim of this study is to estimate the replicability of the effect on the improvement of fecal conditions, when galactosylsucrose-containing food for specified health uses is ingested on the usual life. The subjects of this study (51 females, age; 20.1•}2.1y.) have to ingest one package (48g, 12g•~4 pieces) of the cookies type of food for specified health uses containing 4g of
