PURPOSE:To obtain a metabolic promoter capable of promoting the biosynthesis of biological collagen and activating the metabolism of a biological tissue and a food for preventing an aging change capable of improving the fatigue and dysfunction of the biological tissue by the aging change. CONSTITUTION:This metabolic promoter is a composition prepared by blending a collagen protein or its hydrolyzate as an essential ingredient therein. This food for preventing an aging change is a food obtained by blending the collagen protein or its hydrolyzate with a useful part of a plant or its extract. The collagen protein and its hydrolyzate are an extract separated from, e.g. an animal skin or bone and other connective tissues having a sufficient purity or its hydrolyzate and includes gelatin which is a thermally denatured substance of the collagen protein. Furthermore, a plant such as Eucommiae Folium, Ginseng Radix, Acanthopanacis Cortex or Astragali Radix is used as the useful part of the plant. |
