[Nutrition and bone health. Food for specified health use (FOSHU) and bone health].
It is known that food has biological regulation functions. The Food for Specified Health Use (FOSHU) is the food, of which a functional component was identified, of which the biological regulation function has been confirmed in clinical trials, and of which a health claim was permitted by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. Currently, three categories of Food for Specified Health Use exist concerning bone health: foods helping mineral absorption, foods helping mineral absorption and conditioning the intestines, and foods for people concerned about bone health. Incorporating Food for Specified Health Use properly into diet could help bone health.
