Healthy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Trial Investigating the Daily Effects of Blueberry (Poly)Phenol Consumption on Vascular Function and Cognitive Performance in Healthy Elderly Individuals
Foods rich in certain (poly)phenols, particularly flavonoids, such as berries and cocoa, have been shown to improve measures of vascular function as well as cognitive performance in human intervention studies. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel trial investigating the effects of daily blueberry (poly)phenol consumption on vascular function and cognitive performance in healthy elderly individuals. The study will be conducted at King's College London, Franklin-Wilkins Building. Eligible subjects will be healthy males and females aged 65-80.
To date no study has investigated whether daily blueberry consumption can induce an increase in cerebral blood flow, with subsequent improvements in vascular and cognitive function. In this study, the investigators aim to directly link daily blueberry consumption with improved vascular function, increased cerebral blood flow and positive cognitive outcomes in healthy elderly individuals. The investigators will use a large group of elderly individuals' representative of a healthy population, both males and females, aged 65-80 years to evaluate the health effects of daily blueberry consumption. The main aim is to investigate whether improvements in vascular and cognitive function previously seen after blueberry consumption can be seen following 3-months daily consumption in elderly individuals, and whether enhanced cognitive performance is correlated with increased cerebral blood flow. The investigators hypothesise that daily consumption of an anthocyanin rich blueberry drink will improve cognitive performance and vascular function, increasing cerebral blood flow, in healthy older individuals. ;
