<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an α-glucosidase inhibitor which remarkably inhibits postcibal hyperglycemia and therefore, effective in preventing or ameliorating diabetes, obesity, etc., and remains safe and effective even in prolonged administration, because the α-glucosidase is a catalytic enzyme in degradation of glucide in the digestive tract, the absorption of the glucide can be inhibited by suppressing or retarding the activity of the glucosidase. <P>SOLUTION: The α-glucosidase inhibitor is formulated with one or two or more kind selected form ingredients obtained from Uncaria gambir, Moutan Cortex or Polygala tenuifolia. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
