Administration of a dietary supplement consisting of L-Tryptophan, L-Methionine, L-Valine, L-Lysine Monohydrochloride, Vitamin B-12, Vitamin B-6, and Folic Acid has been shown to reduce postprandial peak blood glucose, lower urea formation, reduce cholesterol and triglyceride blood levels and normalize homocysteine blood levels. Upstream temperature sensors and downstream temperature sensors are formed in both sides of a heater, parallel resistors are formed in the external side of a thin film portion, and the downstream temperature sensors are connected at the contacts. A second calculation unit calculates a position and an orientation of the object based on the calculated irradiation plane and the light projection pattern formed on the object.
