Abstract

In this study, we examined the influence of a newly developed Plenus kinme rice on blood pressure and plasma HbA1c value. Twenty five subjects without serious disease were recruited, and 24 subjects were analyzed. After the consumption of musen rice for 8 weeks (control group), Plenus kinme rice was administrated for 16 weeks (test group). The results were as follows: in the test group, systolic blood pressure decreased significantly (p=0.008) and the plasma HbA1c level decreased significantly by stratified analysis (p=0.003). Furthermore, Plenus kinme rice improved several mibyou constitutions such as Gentleness type, Qi-deficiency type, Phlegm-wetness type, Wet-heat type and Qi-depression type. It was concluded that the Plenus kinme rice may be useful for prevention of lifestyle related diseases. Further study will be needed to confirm these effects.
