Lactic acid bacteria for promoting physical activity

Abstract

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a physical activity promoter that includes lactic acid bacteria from the human gut and / or a treated product of such lactic acid bacteria, or a food product composition for promoting physical activity containing same. In order to resolve the foregoing problem, the present inventors administered killed Lactobacillus Gasseri OLL2809 lactic acid bacteria to mice, and thereupon had the novel discovery that in addition to the effect of inhibiting eosinophilic infiltration, the effect of increasing the amount of action was also present. In other words, the present inventors perfected the present invention having discovered that ingesting Lactobacillus Gasseri OLL2809 or a fermented product / treated product thereof promotes physical activity, and specifically increases the amount of activity and also increases muscle mass.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a physical activity promoter containing Lactobacillus gasseri as an active ingredient, or a food composition for promoting physical activity containing the same. Background technique [0002] In modern society where life is irregular or stressful, moderate exercise or physical activity is recommended for maintaining health including prevention of lifestyle-related diseases or eliminating stress. [0003] However, people who do not usually exercise often suffer from muscle fatigue immediately after exercising or physical activity, or are troubled by severe muscle fatigue after exercise, which may cause them to be unable to continue exercising on a daily basis. [0004] In addition, for the elderly, as a means to prevent the decline in exercise capacity, moderate exercise or rehabilitation training is used, but there are also concerns about difficulty in maintaining motivation or injury, which is still difficult in realit...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, people who are usually inactive often experience muscle fatigue immediately after exercising or physical activity suddenly, or are troubled by severe muscle fatigue after exercising, which sometimes becomes a reason why they cannot continue exercising on a daily basis

[0004] In addition, for the elderly, as a means to prevent the decline in exercise capacity, moderate exercise or rehabilitation training is used, but there are also concerns about difficulty in maintaining motivation or injury, which is still difficult in reality, and more effective methods are expected
