Abstract

A satisfying diet is not always consistent with Improving quality of life.In recent years, overall vegetable consumption in Japan has been declining. However, consumption of salad vegetables has been increasing, and the amount of salad purchased has also been increasing.Since salads can be freely combined with many kinds of ingredients, their nutritional value can be adjusted, such as salads for elderly people with high protein content and salads for obese people with low calories.In this way, by providing salads and salad dishes that meet the conditions, a healthy diet with high QOL can be realized.
