Notification number

Scientific evidence disclosed under Japan’s FFC system.

In Japan, PROTEALL GⅡ is notified as a Foods with Function Claims product. The notified functional ingredient is salmon nasal cartilage-derived proteoglycan.

The Japanese notification describes research relating to cartilage metabolism and everyday knee movement in adults with knee discomfort.

Japan’s FFC system is a notification system and is not equivalent to FDA approval. This product has not been evaluated or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

A Japanese Food Tradition

What is hizu?

Hizu is the soft cartilage found in the snout of a salmon. Because of its translucent, ice-like appearance, it became known in Japanese as “hizu,” literally “ice head.”

In northern regions of Japan, thinly sliced hizu has traditionally been prepared with vinegar and served as a regional dish. Today, salmon nasal cartilage is also valued as a source of proteoglycan.

From Food Culture to Ingredient Science

A familiar Japanese ingredient, seen in a new way.

The traditional use of hizu reflects a long relationship between Japanese food culture and salmon cartilage. Modern extraction technology has made it possible to prepare salmon nasal cartilage-derived proteoglycan as a standardized food ingredient.

Traditional food use does not, by itself, establish a clinical effect. Research information is presented separately below.

Five Key Ingredients

Proteoglycan-centered, thoughtfully combined.

The formal ingredient names below follow the current product formulation. Amounts shown are per recommended daily serving of three tablets.

Extracellular Matrix

Proteoglycan is not collagen or hyaluronic acid.

Collagen contributes structural strength to the extracellular matrix. Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water. Proteoglycans are glycoproteins with glycosaminoglycan chains and are also important components of the extracellular matrix.

These substances work within the same biological environment, but they are structurally different.

Educational description of biological components; it does not establish that consuming the finished product changes human tissue.

Articular Cartilage

A water-rich extracellular matrix.

Articular cartilage is composed largely of water, together with type II collagen fibers, proteoglycans, cartilage cells, and smaller amounts of other matrix components.

The proportions shown are educational ranges. Actual composition varies by cartilage region, age, health status, and measurement method.

Published Human Research

10 mg per day for 16 weeks.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated salmon nasal cartilage-derived proteoglycan in Japanese adults with knee discomfort who had not been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis.

Study Design

Randomized and placebo-controlled

Sixty adults were enrolled and 55 were included in the efficacy analysis. Participants consumed 10 mg of salmon nasal cartilage proteoglycan or placebo daily for 16 weeks.

Balanced Interpretation

The subgroup result needs context

The full-group analysis did not show a significant between-group difference in C1,2C or PIICP. A significant C1,2C difference was reported in a subgroup with a JKOM total score of 41 or higher.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What does Japan FFC Notification F235 mean?

Japan’s Foods with Function Claims system allows a responsible business operator to notify the Consumer Affairs Agency of a function claim supported by submitted scientific evidence. It is not individual government approval and is not equivalent to FDA approval.

How much proteoglycan does the product provide?

The recommended daily serving of three tablets provides 10 mg of salmon nasal cartilage-derived proteoglycan.

Is proteoglycan the same as collagen or hyaluronic acid?

No. They are different components of the extracellular matrix. PROTEALL GⅡ contains a proteoglycan ingredient as well as porcine cartilage extract and hyaluronic acid.

Does the product contain animal-derived ingredients?

Yes. It contains ingredients derived from salmon, shrimp/crab, pork, and shark cartilage. Review the product label carefully if you have food allergies or dietary restrictions.

Who should consult a healthcare professional before use?

Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, nursing, trying to conceive, under 18, have a medical condition, take medication, or have a known food allergy.
