Japanese Society of Food Chemistry and FFI Journal EDITORIAL OFFICE jointly hosted the "fatigue and recovery" symposium on September 9, 2005 at Osaka-Yakugyo-Nenkin-Kaikan Hall with 170 participants.
At first Yoshiki Nishizawa, Professor of Osaka City University Medical School, gave his address, the following lectures were spoken: "Effects of carbohydrate-protein beverages on endurance performance & muscle damage" by Michael J. Saunders, Ph.D., Department of Kinesiology, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, VA, U.S.A.; "Effect of carbohydrate/protein supplements on recovery from exercise" by John L. Ivy, Ph.D., University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, U.S.A.; "Active fatige of skeletal muscle" by Satoshi Matsunaga of Institute for Health and Sport Sciences, Osaka City University; "Manifestation of Central Fatigue and Tgf-Beta in Brain" by Kazuo Inoue, Assistant Professor of Graduate School of Agriculture, Kyoto University; "Development of anti fatige food for specified health use" by Osami Kajimoto, Assistant Professor of CENTER FOR HEALTH CARE OSAKA UNIVERSITY OF FOREIGN STUDIES and an administrator and CSO of Sogo-Ikagaku-Kenkyusho; and "Mechanism making chronic fatigue" by Hirohiko Kuratsune, Department of Health Science, Faculty of Health Science for Welfare, Kansai University of Welfare Science.
Due to the fact that 80% or more of Japanese people live with tiredness, speakers and participants actively discussed the mechanism of fatigue, measuring methods, or a difference between physical and mental fatigue, and after the discussions many participants enjoyed the social gathering where they deepened exchanges in opinions.
In order to inform others of the contents of this symposium, this issue reports the outlines of those four lectures.
