To clarify the effectiveness and usability of DSW, we performed a review of the pertinent papers that have so far been published to date. The effectiveness of the short-term application of DSW on atopic dermatitis, and the usability of short-term DSW treatment on the bone metabolism in perimenopausal women has been demonstrated. In animal experiments, an elevation-suppressing effect on the serum lipids and blood glucose concentrations, or blood pressure has been confirmed. Furthermore, DSW has also been demonstrated to be safe and effective for use as bath water. If these findings could be confirmed in other studies, then some clear proof of the positive health effects of DSW could be obtained. Based on the findings of both human clinical trials and animal experiments, a long-term trial evaluating the human health effects of DSW, and the verification of such effects obtained by animal experiences to human, are thus needed to evaluate the effectiveness and usability of DSW.}, pages = {337--344}, title = {海洋深層水の利用とその健康影響(医学研究実習レポート)}, volume = {120}, year = {2006} }
