Blessing of the Sea: "Katsuobushi Oligopeptide"

Focusing on a traditional Japanese food from ancient times

Dedication to Traditional Foods 

Traditional foods have been continuously consumed since ancient times. These are foods that people have recognized throughout their lives as being gentle on the body. Because they have been loved for such a long time, they can truly be considered safe foods. 

We investigated hundreds of ingredients in search of foods useful for blood pressure management. Our focus was on extracting beneficial ingredients from "traditional foods with a rich history of consumption." As a result, after conducting thousands of combination tests, we finally arrived at the ancient Japanese traditional food, "Katsuobushi" (dried bonito). 

Traditional Manufacturing Methods and the Power of Science

Enhancing the wisdom of our ancestors with the power of science

Katsuobushi is made from bonito caught in the Pacific Ocean. We discovered a beneficial ingredient within it, "Katsuobushi Oligopeptide," which gently helps manage blood pressure. We have currently obtained a patent for the technology based on this discovery. In this way, the power of traditional foods passed down from ancient people is maximized through the power of science.

*The special enzyme (scissors) is safe and widely used in the food industry.

Scientific Management to Deliver Safety and Peace of Mind

Proof of technology is proof of trust

Discovering the immense power hidden within the blessings of nature is no easy task. Believing in the existence of this immense power, we persistently repeated trial and error, and discovered the beneficial ingredient "Katsuobushi Oligopeptide," which gently helps to manage blood pressure.

This finding has been registered as both Japanese and international patents, serving as proof of trust in Katsuobushi Oligopeptide.
