A 14-years-old schoolgirl having suffered from anorexia nervosa for a year was referred to our counseling room by her family doctor. She was admitted to the hospital suffering from weakness, fatigue, and amenorrhea as a result of marked weight loss over a six-month period. She was a high achiever who pushed herself to excel in every facet of school life, falling short only in her social relationships. She put pressure on herself to excel in every academic subject and was worn out, leaving little time for friends, and ultimately leading to social isolation. The constant pressure led to anorexia. Using role-plays based on KiKi's Delivery Service (KDS) scripts (Hayao Miyazaki animated movie, "Majo no takkyuubin"), we helped her discover her personal style and develop her interpersonal social skills. Our role-play model proved to be a successful treatment for anorexia nervosa and we recommend these methods for patients with anorexia nervosa needing a more developed sense of identity.

Propolis is a bee product with various biological properties. C57BL/6 mice were fed a high-fat diet and treated with propolis for 14 weeks. Body weight in mice treated with 2% propolis was less than that in control mice from 3 weeks after the start of treatment until 14 weeks except for the 7th week. Mice treated with propolis showed significantly lower epididymal fat weight and subcutaneous fat weight. Infiltration of epididymal fat by macrophages and T cells was reduced in the propolis group. Supplementation of propolis increased feces weight and fat content in feces, suggesting that mechanisms of weight reduction by propolis partly include a laxative effect and inhibition of fat absorption.
