Food Function Chemistry Lab (Division of Marine Food Science)
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that aims to prevent disease by using food components from marine resources to balance the immune system.

AboutAbout the lab
Balancing immunity through the power of food.
The Food Function Chemistry Lab studies how food components regulate the immune system.
Life expectancy has risen, but lifestyle-related diseases and illnesses associated with aging have become social problems.
Some food components can regulate immune responses and help prevent disease.
The lab also lists the development of functional foods from marine resources that are not yet put to use as one of its research goals.
Key terms
- Immunity
- The system that protects the body from foreign substances and pathogens that enter it. If it is overactive or too weak, it can lead to disease.
- Lifestyle-related disease
- A disease in which daily habits such as diet and exercise play a major role, such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
- Functional food
- Food that makes use of components that not only provide nutrition but also help regulate the condition of the body.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab investigates how components in marine bioresources act in the body and how they affect immune responses. Its goal is to clarify these mechanisms and propose new fishery products that help prevent lifestyle-related diseases.
