In 1981, Dr. Harada (the Japanese scientist) discovered that if you have Aldehyde Dehydrogenase defection (ALDH2 mutation), it will blush when drinking. This phenomenon is called Alcohol Intolerance. According to statistics, there are 560 million East Asians in the world who have the potential for alcohol intolerance. Up to half of Taiwan’s population has the potential for alcohol intolerance. Taiwan is the country with the highest rate of alcohol intolerance in the world, followed by China and Singapore 40% each.

Polyamine (PA) is considered to be essential for cell growth and metabolism. In general, PA contains spermidine (hereinafter referred to as Spd) and spermine (hereinafter referred to as Spm) and their bismuth precursors putrescine (hereinafter referred to as Put). Related studies can be traced as early as 1678, when Antonie van Leeuwenhoek first discovered the presence of spermidine in human semen. To date, except for microorganisms such as Methanobacteriales and Halobacteriales, the presence of PA is almost found in cells of other species (1), and many literatures indicate the physiology of PA in these species. Functionally plays an important role.
