PURPOSE:To obtain a mineral absorption promoter containing oligoxylose as the active component which is excellent in the absorption ratio of Ca, P, Mg and Fe and their in vivo holding ratio, and a food containing oligoxylose as the active component and having a mineral absorption promoting activity. CONSTITUTION:A mineral absorption promoter and a food having a mineral absorption promoting activity are prepared. Both the mineral absorption promoter and the food having a mineral absorption promoting activity respectively contain an oligoxylose mixture as the main component which is prepared by treating a natural material such as cotton seed jelly, corncob or birth wood with xylanase in an amount of >=1/2 and they are useful for improving the absorption ratio of Ca, P, Mg and Fe and their in vivo holding ratio. |
