Filter by:It is not known if an increase in fermented food intake relative to an individuals' habitual diet can lead to improvements in bloating, mood, or hunger levels, or increase energy levels (and reduce fatigue) in the general population. Acceptability of fermented foods across many different types of people and households is also unclear. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the potential effects of increasing fermented food intake on these outcomes, as well as the feasibility of this dietary change.
This is a virtual, single-arm clinical trial that will last 30 days. Participants will drink 1 bottle of the Vitamin Energy® shot daily and complete questionnaires at baseline, Day 7, Day 14, and Day 30. Participants' energy, mood, and cognitive function will be evaluated at baseline and at each check-in. Bodyweight will also be assessed at baseline and Day 30. Likert scale responses will be examined from baseline to each check-in. Participant responses on product feedback will be presented as % scores.
The sociocultural pressure towards women's body image is one of the problems that today afflicts much of the female population. It is a reality that society exerts a strong pressure on body image, particularly on women. The main objective of this study is to analyze the self-perception and self-esteem of people who apply a facial cosmetic. A convenience sample of 150 participants is estimated, who can be randomly included in one of the three groups with different interventions.
This is a placebo controlled clinical trial to assess the utility of light therapy as a sufficient treatment for excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome
Frailty is a common geriatric condition with significantly increased vulnerability to stress and susceptibility of negative health-related outcomes. Sacropenia and impaired cognitive function are two major contributors to frailty. This study aims to evaluate the effects of the combined use of exergaming and resistance training in improving the frailty of nursing home residents.
This study will examine the effects of type II diabetes on cognitive functions and mood in middle-aged patients. In addition, the association between cognitive functions and glycemic controls is studied in patients. Sixty patients and sixty healthy controls will be recruited and assessed by a multiprofessional team (neuropsychologist, physician).
The baby blues are a significant event which can occur immediately following childbirth and is a normal experience occurring in up to 76% of new mothers, characterised by mood swings, irritability, crying spells and sadness typically lasting 10-14 days. Research suggests that the more severe and longer duration of the baby blues, the higher risk of later postnatal mood disorders. Therefore, this represents a critical period which could benefit from an intervention which may prevent symptom onset or an increase in the severity of mood disorders later in the postpartum. Flavonoids are a plant bioactive found in certain fruits vegetables and beverages. Evidence suggests that consumption of flavonoid rich foods can improve physical health, mood and cognition. Prior research investigating flavonoid intervention in mothers in the first 6 months and 1 year postpartum found significant benefits to mood in the new mothers after daily flavonoid supplementation, showing promise for the management of mood in a key period for mothers, where risk of PND is high. The immediate postpartum also represents a period of cognitive changes reported to affect up to 80% of new mothers. In addition, women during this time are at an increased risk of high blood pressure and hypertension, which is thought to be a risk factor for the onset and severity of depressive symptoms and cognitive decrements. Flavonoids have been reported to improve cognition and cardiovascular health, therefore, introducing a flavonoid intervention during the immediate postpartum could have benefits to cognition and blood pressure in new mothers. The aim of the current study will be to explore whether the implementation of a high flavonoid diet across a 30-day period will positively affect maternal mental health, cognition and blood pressure. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups; high flavonoid diet, low flavonoid diet or a control condition for 30-days, starting at days 0-4 after birth. They will have visits from the researcher at 6 separate time points between the third trimester and 12 weeks postpartum. At each visit, participants will be asked to complete mood questionnaires (PANAS-NOW, EPDS, PSAS, STAI, EPDS-P) followed by a cognitive battery (MANT, Spatial n-back, RAVLT and PRMQ) and blood pressure recordings (systolic and diastolic blood pressure). Between visits, participants will be contacted by the researcher to record retrospective 24hr food recalls (Intake24).
Upper limb complications and sleep disturbances are prevalent, persistent, and serious health problems in women with breast cancer. However, these problems are underrecognized in clinical practice and thus have substantial adverse impacts on the health and quality of life of women with breast cancer. As yoga practices have been shown to improve physical and psychological health in people with cancer, such practices may also alleviate upper limb complications and sleep disturbances in women with breast cancer. However, there are few evidence-based guidelines or protocols to support the integration of yoga therapy into clinical practice for managing the health conditions of women with breast cancer. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of yoga therapy on improving the upper limb functions, sleep quality, and quality of life in women with breast cancer.
This is a virtual, single-arm clinical trial that will last 28 days. Participants will drink 1 bottle of Proper Wild energy shot daily and complete questionnaires at baseline, day 1, day 14, and day 28. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)-like symptoms, such as concentration, focus, and attention, will be evaluated at baseline and at each check-in. Likert scale responses will be examined from baseline to each check-in. Participant responses on product feedback will be presented as % scores.
This is a randomized controlled trial to examine the effect of anaerobic activity (e.g., weight training) on gut microbiome metabolism and neurological health in healthy sedentary men.
