Filter by:The present randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial aims to evaluate the effects of Relora supplementation on responses to induced stress produced by a combination of cognitive and physiologic stressors in healthy men and women. The effects of the supplement, compared with a placebo, will be evaluated using measures to assess anxiety [State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Part 1 (STAI-Part 1), mood [Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale (VAS)], hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation (salivary cortisol) and cognitive function (cognitive flexibility, reaction time, processing speed, attention, sustained attention, working memory, and executive function). Testing will be completed at the beginning and end of 7-d supplementation periods with the active and placebo products to assess both the acute effects and the "acute-on-chronic" effects following one week of daily use.

The objective of this study is to determine whether horticultural therapy would improve the psychological well-being of the older adults. 70 healthy elderly were randomized into the active horticultural therapy or the waitlist control group. Sessions will be conducted weekly for 12 weeks, and monthly for 3 months. Participants would be assessed at 3 time-points: at the start, at 3-months and at 6-months. It was hypothesized that as compared to the waitlist control group, participants in the active horticultural therapy will have (1) lower depression and anxiety symptomatology; (2) higher life satisfaction; (3) feel more socially connected; and (4) improved cognitive functioning.
