Saccharide for supplementing energy to living body, and uses

摘要

A composition for supplementing energy to a living body containing neotrehalose as effective ingredient. Neotrehalose is a disaccharide, therefore, when used in an energy supplementing composition, provides twice as much energy as does a monosaccharide. Neotrehalose has non-reducing properties, and this renders the composition containing neotrehalose stable for a relatively-long time period.
