Description
本発明は、亜鉛を有効成分として含む発汗促進用食品組成物に関する。詳細には、亜鉛を有効成分として含む暑熱環境下における発汗促進用食品組成物に関する。
The present invention relates to a food composition for promoting sweating containing zinc as an active ingredient. Specifically, the present invention relates to a food composition for promoting sweating in a hot environment containing zinc as an active ingredient.
熱中症は、めまい、失神、頭痛、吐き気、強い眠気、気分が悪くなる、及び体温の異常な上昇等の様々な症状を引き起こすことが知られている。熱中症は、熱中症になる状況から大きく二つに分類することができる。一つは真夏の炎天下といった暑熱環境下でスポーツや肉体労働などの筋肉運動が合わさって熱中症に至る「労作性熱中症」である。もう一つは、暑熱環境の中で長時間過ごして熱中症に至る「非労作性熱中症」である。
Heat stroke is known to cause various symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, headache, nausea, strong sleepiness, feeling bad, and abnormal rise in body temperature. Heat stroke can be roughly classified into two types according to the situation of heat stroke. One is “working heat stroke”, which results in heat stroke when combined with muscle exercise such as sports and physical labor in a hot environment such as a hot summer sun. The other is “non-working heat stroke”, which results in heat stroke after spending a long time in a hot environment.
暑熱環境下で運動を伴う労作性熱中症の予防は、運動する前に暑さに慣れる順化時間を設ける、水分休憩をこまめに取る、早めに体調不良を申し出るなどの自主的な対応が挙げられる。
The prevention of labor-related heat stroke with exercise in a hot environment includes voluntary responses such as setting acclimatization time to get used to heat before exercise, taking frequent breaks in water, and offering poor physical condition early. It is done.
一方、非労作性熱中症では、暑熱環境を感じにくい高齢者や、体が小さく環境の影響を受けやすい乳幼児に多い。そのため、発見の遅れ、認識の遅れ、応急処置の遅れによって重症化につながることが多い。近年は熱中症が増加傾向にあるが、その背景として、真夏日、猛暑日、熱帯夜の増加や都会のヒートアイランド現象といった気候変動に加え、高齢者、独り暮らし、経済的困窮者など、熱中症弱者といわれる人々の増加などが知られている。したがって、手軽で簡便な熱中症対策が望まれている。
On the other hand, non-working heat stroke is more common in elderly people who are not likely to feel the hot environment and infants who are small in body and easily affected by the environment. For this reason, delays in discovery, delays in recognition, and delays in first-aid treatment often lead to severity. In recent years, heat stroke has been on the rise, but as a background, in addition to climate change such as midsummer days, extreme heat days, increased tropical nights and urban heat island phenomenon, people with weak heat stroke, such as elderly people, living alone, economically poor, etc. An increase in the number of people is known. Therefore, an easy and simple heat stroke countermeasure is desired.
ところで、体内で産生された熱は血流に乗り（血液に熱を移して）、全身の皮膚の直下で毛細血管を流れる間に外気温によって冷却される。その後、冷えた血液が再び体深部に還流する（戻る）ことで、体温が上昇するのを防いでいる。毛細血管を通過する血液からは、汗腺を通じて汗を大量に作り出し、それが表皮から蒸発することで気化熱を奪うことで体内の熱を放出する。
By the way, the heat generated in the body rides on the bloodstream (transfers heat to the blood) and is cooled by the outside temperature while flowing through the capillaries directly under the skin of the whole body. Thereafter, the cooled blood recirculates (returns) back to the deep part of the body, thereby preventing the body temperature from rising. The blood that passes through the capillaries creates a large amount of sweat through the sweat glands, which evaporates from the epidermis and releases heat from the body by removing the heat of vaporization.
ここで、熱を毛細血管に運ぶ血液の量の大小は、体内の熱交換の効率性に必要な要素である。しかし、汗が大量に出た後では体内の水分量が減り、これにともなって血流量も減少し、その結果熱交換の効率が悪くなる。そのため、熱中症予防のためには水分補給が推奨されている。また、汗では水分だけでなく体内のミネラル分も失われることから、発汗後には水分と塩分の摂取が推奨されている。
Here, the amount of blood that carries heat to the capillaries is a necessary element for the efficiency of heat exchange in the body. However, after a lot of sweat comes out, the amount of water in the body decreases, and accordingly the blood flow also decreases, resulting in poor heat exchange efficiency. Therefore, hydration is recommended for heat stroke prevention. In addition, since sweat not only loses moisture but also minerals in the body, intake of moisture and salt is recommended after sweating.
このような発汗等によって失われた水分や塩分を速やかに補給する方法として、例えば、水分やミネラル分を含有する清涼飲料が報告されている（特許文献１）。しかしながら、特許文献１では、発汗すること、あるいは発汗が正常であることを前提とした方法であり、汗腺が未熟な乳幼児や、汗腺機能が衰えた高齢者には不向きである。
For example, a soft drink containing water and minerals has been reported as a method for quickly replenishing water and salt lost by such sweating (Patent Document 1). However, Patent Document 1 is a method based on the premise that sweating or sweating is normal, and is not suitable for infants with immature sweat glands and elderly people with impaired sweat gland function.
一方、特許文献２には、非重合体カテキン類を有効成分とする液状発汗促進剤が記載され、発汗量が低下することによる熱中症にも有用であることが記載されている。しかしながら、特許文献２に記載の非重合体カテキン類は、茶葉から抽出した抽出物を用いるため、茶葉抽出物に含まれ、利尿作用を有するカフェインが、必要以上に水分を体外へ排出してしまい、熱中症を増悪するリスクが残る。
On the other hand, Patent Document 2 describes a liquid perspiration promoter containing non-polymer catechins as an active ingredient, and describes that it is also useful for heat stroke due to a decrease in perspiration. However, since the non-polymer catechins described in Patent Document 2 use an extract extracted from tea leaves, caffeine that is contained in the tea leaf extract and has a diuretic action drains water more than necessary. The risk of exacerbating heat stroke remains.
上記特許文献１及び２に記載のように、これまで熱中症の対策として種々の方法が考えられてきたが、熱中症、特に非労作性熱中症にも適した方法は十分ではなかった。そこで、本発明が解決しようとする課題は、熱中症、特に非労作性熱中症に罹りやすい熱中症弱者でも、暑熱環境下で素早く発汗を促し、熱中症を予防する新たな食品組成物を提供することである。
As described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 above, various methods have been considered as countermeasures against heat stroke, but methods suitable for heat stroke, particularly non-working heat stroke, have not been sufficient. Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a new food composition that prevents heatstroke by promptly sweating even in heatstroke patients who are susceptible to heatstroke, particularly non-working heatstroke. It is to be.
本発明者らは、熱中症を予防するための新たな手段として、亜鉛を摂取することによる生体反応に着目した。亜鉛はミネラルの一種で、約３００種類の酵素の合成に必須の栄養素であり、細胞***や新陳代謝、抗酸化、タンパク質の合成等に働くことが知られている。
