PURPOSE:To prepare a health food effective to maintain the health of aged men, by dissolving vitamin E in a vegetable oil under heating, adding riboflavin butyric acid ester and selenium yeast to the solution, and filling the mixture in a capsule. CONSTITUTION:Vitamin E and if necessary beta-carotin, pigments, etc. are dissolved in a vegetable oil under heating at room temperature -150 deg.C. Riboflavin butyric acid ester and selenium yeasts are dispersed in the solution and filled in a capsule. The selenium yeast is obtained by culturing yeast in a principal medium added with a selenium compound,and drying the cultured yeasts. The riboflavin butyric acid ester is prepared by esterifying water-soluble riboflavin (vitamin B2) with butyric acid thereby making the riboflavin fat-soluble. The ester not only acts as the original vitamin B2 in the body, but also directly attacks and destroys the senility-promoting lipid peroxide. |
