Time-dependent changes of DRI values for young (age 20s) and old (age 60s) volunteers with DHA-yogurt and control-diets. (A) Duration time (after the intake of breakfast) -dependent patterns for DHA-yogurt diet. The data of DRI changes for subjects with age 20s (12 male persons, all were non-smoking; the duration times were within 4 hours.) and age 60s (6 male persons; three in non-smoking group and the other three in cigarette smoking group) were represented, and the start points for age 20s group were higher than age 60s. (B) DRI changes for the control diet. DRI values for age 20s group were also higher than for age 60s in 2~4 hours after the breakfast, and the maximum level of DRI was obtained in 4~6 hours for age 60s, suggesting the increase of arachidonic acid.
