Space Seed Holdings' Blue Zone Research Revelation
Space Seed Holdings, headquartered in the Minato district of Tokyo, has recently shared significant insights from its research on the Okinawa Blue Zone. In line with this initiative, a next-generation food product named "SAISEI Regeneosome Supplement" has been developed by its subsidiary, Regeneosome Co., Ltd.
Understanding the Blue Zone
The term "Blue Zone" describes regions where individuals aged 100 years or older live in high numbers. These areas are subjects of longevity research, aimed at identifying lifestyle habits and dietary practices that contribute to health and longevity. Okinawa is a key area of interest due to its unique customs and nutritional strategies contributing to extended lifespans.
For years, Space Seed Holdings has focused on cultivating native Okinawan plants and capitalizing on their benefits. Utilizing the Blue Zone Farm located in Tomigusuku, Okinawa, the company has engaged in collaborative studies to explore the health potential of these natural resources.
Key Longevity Factors in Okinawa
The company's research highlighted several factors contributing to the longevity of Okinawans, including:
Plant-Based Nutrition
Okinawans typically consume a diet rich in antioxidants and fiber, with notable staples including sweet potatoes and various vegetables, along with minimal pork consumption. This dietary pattern has shown significant health benefits, including lower rates of hypertension and heart diseases, backed by recent intervention studies proving improvements in body weight, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels.
Strong Social Connectivity
The cultural practice known as "yui maru" fosters mutual assistance and engagement within the community, resulting in low feelings of loneliness and depression among the elderly. Okinawan society cherishes its older members, promoting their well-being and happiness through active participation in community events.
Regular Physical Activity
Daily life in Okinawa involves physical labor, gardening, fishing, and traditional arts, keeping the population active. Such activity helps maintain muscle strength and reduces fall risks, leading to lower heart disease mortality rates compared to other prefectures.
A Sense of Purpose
Okinawans often maintain a strong sense of purpose throughout their lives, participating in community responsibilities and engaging in traditional practices. Their resilient mindset and optimism directly correlate with higher psychological well-being, reducing stress and improving overall health.
Other Influencing Factors
Genetics also play a role, with studies suggesting a higher frequency of longevity-related genes, like FOXO3, among Okinawans. Coupled with a favorable climate and improved public health post-WWII, these factors combine to create a rich environment for longevity.
Introduction of the SAISEI Regeneosome Supplement
In line with these findings, Space Seed Holdings is set to launch its innovative product, the "SAISEI Regeneosome Supplement," enriched with Okinawan ingredients. Each serving contains:
- - Ergothioneine: 30mg/day (an antioxidant)
- - Euglena Powder: 1g/day (rich in 59 nutrients)

From August 2025, Space Seed Holdings plans to strengthen research collaborations within Okinawa, fostering partnerships with local firms and supporting joint ventures focusing on Blue Zone themes.
Additionally, Space Seed Holdings is actively seeking partners among local Okinawan companies to join in research and business ventures centered on the Blue Zone concept.
