Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| In this clinical study, we will validate the effectiveness of the intervention as a secondary purpose. 1) Fecal examination. Intestinal bacteria content as observed in the feces ("TK61406", Lactobacillus spp., Bifidobacterium spp., total number of anaerobic bacteria), pH, and ammonia content. 2) State of facial skin as examined by Robo Skin Analyzer RSA50. Moisture (moisture value, oil value), color (hue, saturation, brightness), pigmentation, pores, redness, wrinkles (under eyes, crow's feet), granularity 3) Inspection of salivary amylase enzyme reaction after continuous computational load test - Assess the resistance and effectiveness on the central power and by continuous computational load test - Number of Issues (30 questions), the number of digits (2 digits), the calculation method (addition) to unify, assess the number of correct answers and the time taken to produce them - Use the "salivary amylase monitor", Nipro Corporation Medical equipment report number: 27B1X00045000110 general medical devices (class 1) 4) Confirmation of amount of visceral fat and subcutaneous fat by abdominal CT examination 5) BMI (confirmation of obesity level) 6) Blood pressure, pulse 7) Interleukin -12 (IL-12) levels 8) Hematological test White blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet count, leukocyte count (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, lymphocytes) 9) Blood biochemical tests AST (GOT), ALT (GPT), ALP, LDH, AMY, gamma-GTP, total protein, albumin, A / G ratio, total bilirubin, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood glucose, BUN, creatinine, uric acid, CPK, serum electrolytes (Na, K, Cl, Ca, Fe, Mg, P) 10) Urinalysis Protein, sugar, ketone bodies, urobilinogen, occult blood, pH, specific gravity | — |
