●●● A new approach to health habits focusing on the lifestyles of modern people and the negative cycles they have ●●●
With the growing awareness of physical condition management in recent years, market needs for health foods and health drinks have become apparent, and products that appeal to physical and mental fatigue and immunity are attracting attention. According to our survey *5, "easy to get tired" and "stress" accounted for nearly 40% of the top concerns about health, and it was found that many people are feeling tired. One of the reasons for this may be a lack of physical strength due to aging or lack of exercise, but we focused on the fact that the cause is hidden in casual lifestyle habits.
* 5: Internet survey conducted in July 2019 (men and women aged 20-79 nationwide n1900)
Attention (1): From malnutrition to fatigue due to disordered eating habits
The energy that builds our body and drives all our activities comes from what we eat. "Carbohydrates", "lipids", and "proteins" taken from the diet are digested in the body and taken into the cycle for producing energy in the cells, and "vitamins" and "minerals" etc. turn those cycles. I will help. Therefore, it is ideal to be able to get the necessary nutrients in a well-balanced manner with one meal, but if you skip a meal or do not have a regular dietary habit, you will run out of energy and feel tired easily.
Attention (2): It becomes difficult to get rid of fatigue due to lack of sleep and stress.
Growth hormone, which is secreted during sleep, also plays an important role in relieving fatigue. In other words, chronic sleep deprivation and light sleep accumulate fatigue more and more, so it is important not only to secure sleep time but also to improve the quality of sleep. Excessive stress can also lead to emotions such as anxiety and irritation, headaches and stiff shoulders, and can cause chronic fatigue. However, at present, about 40% of people are below the ideal sleep time.
着目③:疲労がたまると免疫力が下がる
栄養不足やストレス、睡眠不足が続くと、その精神的緊張が「疲労」として脳に伝達され、さらに疲労感が募ります。蓄積された疲労により免疫力の低下を引き起こします。
As you can see in the points of interest ①②③, these lifestyles seem to be unrelated at first glance, but in reality they are closely related to each other.
"Insufficient metabolic energy due to malnutrition due to disordered eating habits"
→ "Fatigue is caused by lack of metabolic energy"
→ "Chronic fatigue due to stress and lack of sleep"
→ "Immune weakness due to fatigue"
→ "Symptoms caused by weakened immunity promote malnutrition"
It leads to a negative cycle.
Aiming for sustainable health is not a partial response, but a partial response
It is important to approach all of "malnutrition," "fatigue," and "immunity weakness."
