A method for inhibiting the formation of volatile aldehydes including their related compounds and/or the decomposition of fatty acids including their related compounds by incorporating trehalose and/or maltitol. Using the method, compositions such as foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals comprising fatty acids can be prepared and stably stored for a relatively-long period of time without fear of forming volatile aldehydes and/or decomposing the fatty acids.

A method for enhancing the salty-taste and/or delicious-taste of food products and materials thereof, containing sodium chloride, by using trehalose without imparting any unsatisfactory taste and flavor. The content of trehalose to be incorporated is usually in the range of about 1.5-12% to the food products and materials thereof, on a dry solid basis. The method can reduce the content of sodium chloride used in conventional salty food products without losing their satisfactory salty-taste.

Method for enhancing the salty-taste and/or delicious-taste of food

A pine extract combined with a bamboo extract and/or a Japanese apricot extract effectively promotes the growth and regeneration of hair for human and animals. Administration of these compounds leads to no substantial side effects. The topically applied hair restorer containing these compounds is also effective in the prevention of alopecias, as well as in the protection of falling out of hair, dandruff, and itching of the scalp. These properties render these compounds useful in hair restorers for human and animals.

Topically applied hair restorer containing pine extract

The disagreeable harsh, bitter, and astringent odor of pine extract is improved by incorporating into the pine extract a bamboo extract in the amount of from 0.1-20 times on a dry solid basis that of the pine extract, and an extract of Japanese apricot in an amount of 1-200 times on a dry solid basis that of the pine extract. The combination of the pine extract, bamboo extract and Japanese apricot extract is used as a health food or beverage, hair restorer, and medicine.
