Mets Cola: Cola for Specified Health Uses

Katya and I opened up a  bottle of “Kirin Mets Cola“. Katya often buys this cola for me.

KIRIN Mets Cola

This cola is approved by the government as a “Food for Specified Health Uses (FOSHU)”.

FOSHU refers to foods containing ingredient with functions for health and officially approved to claim its physiological effects on the human body (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare).

This cola contains some dexitrins to control the the absorption of fat. Pepsi followed to sell “Pepsi Special“.

For cola, I like Coke the best, but drinking those “healthy colas” makes me feel as if I were a healthy person.
