PURPOSE:To provide the titled food containing a black pigment component extracted from unrefined sugar such as muscovado, molasses, etc., and soya saponin separated from saponin fraction of defatted soybean powder, as essential components, and effective to prevent the obesity by the glucose-absorption inhibiting action without causing side effects. CONSTITUTION:The objective food can be produced by compounding (A) a black pigment component (e.g. 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl-O-D-glucose) obtained by dissolving unrefined sugar such as muscovado, molasses, etc., in water, passing the solution through a column packed with a nonpolar polystyrene resin adsorbent and eluting the adsorbed component and (B) a soya saponin separated from the saponin fraction of defatted soybean powder and represented by the formula (Z is H or D-glucopyranosyl). |
