Self-management of health based on the action mechanism of daily behaviors such as food, exercise and sleep
Under this Prioritized Theme we will conduct R&D to elucidate the mechanisms of actions in the living body, such as food, exercise and sleep, which are the base of health maintenance. We will provide scientific evidence for effective behavior, aiming to widely disseminate self-management advice for health maintenance. This will allow us to build a foundation for continuously creating services that can introduce health activities optimal for individuals to realize health and longevity.
