Filter by:Amla has demonstrated promising effects in the treatment of obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, insulin secretion, among others. The above mentioned findings show that Amla has an excellent potential for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome.
This study aims at detection of possible associated metabolic syndrome with vitiligo and assessment of possible contribution of the age of onset of vitiligo.
The present study examined the effect of Montmorency tart cherry juice on functional and blood-based cardio-metabolic markers in humans with Metabolic Syndrome. Participants consumed Montmorency tart cherry juice or a placebo beverage continuously for 7 days in a randomised, crossover trial. Outcome variables were measured immediately prior to supplementation and post-supplementation. Furthermore, on the 7th day of supplementation outcome variables were measured pre- and up to 5 hours post-bolus. It was hypothesised that Montmorency tart cherry juice would improve cardio-metabolic markers, particularly fasting insulin and systolic blood pressure. Furthermore, the study aimed to identify the mechanism of action for any effects of Montmorency tart cherry juice on blood pressure.
The present study examined the effect of Montmorency tart cherry juice and capsules on functional and blood-based cardio-metabolic markers in humans with Metabolic Syndrome. Participants received a single bolus of Montmorency tart cherry juice, Montmorency tart cherry capsules and placebo in a random, crossover trial. Outcome variables were measured immediately pre- and up to 5 hours post-bolus. It was hypothesised that Montmorency tart cherry juice and capsules would improve cardio-metabolic markers. Furthermore, it was hypothesised that Montmorency tart cherry capsules would be more beneficial than Montmorency tart cherry juice due to increased bioavailability of phytochemicals.
Aim: To study the effect of a combination of functional foods on gut microbiota in subjects with metabolic syndrome. Subjects that met the metabolic syndrome criteria were enrolled in a double-blind, parallel-arm, placebo-control study. The subjects were randomized to receive a dietary portfolio (DP) or placebo (P) treatment for 2 mo. The primary endpoint was to study the effect of a DP on gut microbiota. Secondary endpoints were biochemical and anthropometric parameters, LPS, insulin, leptin, area under the curve for glucose and insulin.
The survey is designed to investigate whether 8 weeks of discrete two-day intermittent fasting per week will impact gut microbiota and cardiovascular risks of metabolic syndrome subjects.
This study aims to examine the association between body composition with bone density and risk factors for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. South Asian Indians have a lower bone density and a higher likelihood to develop metabolic syndrome (MetS) compared to Caucasians. MetS is a cluster of metabolic abnormalities that predispose an individual to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. This study will understand if the metabolic and biochemical markers ( Indicators of bone building and breaking in the blood and urine, Lipids and other proteins) explain both low BMD and MetS in SAI men
This pilot study will test acceptability and feasibility of a sleep extension intervention in community dwelling, short sleeping, racially/ethnically diverse middle aged adults with Metabolic Syndrome (METs). Baseline sleep habits will be assessed and used to guide individualized strategies to extend sleep. A 1-group pre-test, post-test study design will test the efficacy of this 18 week study (2 weeks of baseline data collection, 1 week of study intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention delivery, final follow up 3 weeks after last day of the 12 week intervention) on sleep duration, MetS factors (waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting glucose, trigycerides, HDL-c), MetS risk behaviors (poor affective well-being, fatigue) and self regulation. Socio-ecological barriers and facilitators to the intervention will be identified using a quantitative and qualitative approach.

Wine grape pomace flour (WGPF) is a fruit byproduct high in fiber and antioxidants. The effect of WGPF consumption was tested on blood biochemical parameters including oxidative stress biomarkers. In a 3-month intervention study, 27 male volunteers, each with some components of metabolic syndrome, consumed a beef burger supplemented with 7% WGPF containing 3.5% of fiber and 1.2 mg GE/g of polyphenols (WGPF-burger), daily during the first month. The volunteers consumed no burgers in the second month, and one control burger daily in the third month. At baseline and after these periods, there were evaluated metabolic syndrome components, plasma antioxidant status [2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity (DPPH),uric acid, vitamin E, vitamin C], and oxidative damage markers [advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL), malondialdehyde (MDA)].
