Bioactive action A method of using the physiological activity of a rare saccharide, characterized by changing the function of the cell by reacting the rare saccharide to a sensitive cell. A composition comprising a rare saccharide as an active ingredient ingested into a physiologically active sensitive cell and having the effect of changing the function of the cell. The cell is a human cell. The composition is a functional food, medicine or cosmetic. The rare sugars are rare sugars belonging to aldose and / or ketose. The aldose is D-allose, and the cell is selected from the group consisting of cancer cell proliferation inhibitory cells and active oxygen production inhibitory cells. The ketose is D-psicose, and the cells are selected from the group consisting of chemokine secretion inhibitory cells, microglia-inhibiting cells and hypoglycemic cells. |
