Filter by:This randomized, double blind, controlled trial investigates changes in the cardiovascular index (triacylglycerol/HDL-cholesterol × waist/hip ratio) after 12 weeks of marine protein hydrolysate (MPH) or whey protein powder (placebo) supplementation in adult healthy persons. Additionally, the study investigates potential effects on plasma parameters of metabolic health including lipids, glucose, inflammatory parameters and redox state, as well as associations between dietary MPH and body weight, abdominal obesity, body composition, and gut microbiota composition. Finally, putative end-products of diet-microbial interactions (TMAO and short-chain fatty acids) with CVD risk factors and biomarkers of mitochondrial function are examined.
Study Design: Randomised controlled trial Study Participants: Healthy volunteers from the UK Planned Sample Size: 500 Planned Study Period: June - December 2021 Objectives and Outcome Measures: 1. Primary - Objective: To investigate the effect of promotions on the total number of calories selected - Measure: Difference in the absolute energy (kcal) of the final basket between the two groups 2. Secondary Objectives: - To investigate the effect of promotions on the nutritional content of the items selected overall, and across the individual target food categories - To explore the impact of removing promotions by socioeconomic status Measures: - Difference in the absolute sugar (g, kcal, %E), salt (g), and saturated fat (g, kcal, %E) of the final basket between the two groups - Difference in the absolute energy (kcal), sugar (g, kcal, %E), salt (g), and saturated fat (g, kcal, %E) between the two groups across the individual target food categories - Analyses of the primary and secondary outcomes specified above by gender, age group, ethnic group (White vs Non-White), BMI stratified into <30 and ≥30kg/m2 groups, education level (lower vs. higher), and household income (lower vs. higher) 3. Exploratory outcomes: - Objective: To investigate the acceptability of the intervention - Measures: Rating scores and open-ended answers from the follow-up questionnaire
The aim of the project is to study of the influence of Lettuce crop enriched with Molibdenum on hematological parameter. Secondary outcome to find out Molibdenum presence in urine in order to evaluate vegetables, like little crop, as Molibdenum biocarrier.
The aim of the project is to study the influence of Lettuce crop enriched with Molybdenum and lettuce enriched with Iodine administrated at the same time on healthy population in order to assess influence on hematological parameter and Thyroid hormones. Secondary outcome will be to find out Molybdenum and Iodine presence in urine in order to evaluate vegetables as biocarrier and any additive effect when administrated all together.
This clinical trial aims to investigate if extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) or palm oil enriched chocolate spread snacks consumption lead to differential insulin resistance status in young, healthy subjects. Such effect includes difference in a) plasma ceramides, b) glucose metabolism markers, c) lipid profile, d) inflammatory markers, e) hunger/satiety hormonal markers and visual analogue scale.
This project will assess the effects of consuming different proportions of red meat (RM) and plant-based, protein-rich foods (nuts, seeds, and soy products - NSS) incorporated into a U.S. Healthy Eating Pattern (HEP) on cardiovascular disease risk factors in adults at high risk of developing a heart-related disease.
Walnuts have a unique nutritional profile, including the sleep-regulating hormone melatonin, tryptophan, and omega-3 fatty acids, the two latest nutrients involved in melatonin and serotonin synthesis. Although it has been claimed that walnuts may improve sleep, to the investigators' knowledge, no studies have been conducted to objectively determine the impact of walnut consumption on sleep and overall well-being. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of daily walnut consumption on sleep parameters (such as quality and duration). Secondarily, it aims to investigate the impact of daily walnut consumption on body composition, eating behavior, and well-being.
The overall objective of this study is to explore the glycemic index and glycemic load induced by an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of isomaltulose and a resistant maltodextrin), as well as its postprandial metabolic response, compared to the effect induced by: a) an alcohol-free beer with a usual composition; b) an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of a resistant maltodextrin). This study includes two cross-over sub-studies recruiting healthy participants. In the first one, 10 healthy volunteers receive 25 g of carbohydrates coming from: regular alcohol-free beer (RB), alcohol-free beer with almost completely eliminated maltose and enriched with isomaltulose (2.5 g/100 mL) and a resistant maltodextrin (0.8 g/100 mL) (IMB), alcohol-free beer with the same maltose removal enriched with resistant maltodextrin (2.0 g/100 mL) (MB) and glucose solution. In the second study, 20 healthy volunteers are provided with 50 g of carbohydrates from white bread and water and the same meal plus 14.3 g of carbohydrates coming from: RB, IMB, MB and extra white bread. Blood is sampled at baseline and for 2 h, every 15 min, after ingestion.
The goal of the biological sample collection is to assess the presence of gut metabolites in human breast milk (BM) samples obtained prospectively from healthy lactating mothers and after consumption of fruit juice.
The relationship between healthy eating index and maternal thyroid volume in patients with hyperemesis gravidarum is planned.
