The Effect of 12-week Supplementation With Olive Leaf Extract in Postmenopausal Women (FEMMED)

FEMMED
Start date: February 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Menopause is defined as the end of menstruation and fertility,starting 12 months after the last menstrual period.In this modern and economically developed society, most women are living for at least 20-40 years in a postmenopausal state. During menopause women may experience physical, emotional, and urogenital symptoms, with a significant impact on their health.Olive leaf extract supplementation may improve quality of life in post-menopausal women.

Effect of (Poly)Phenolic on Cardiometabolic Risk of Postmenopausal Women

CARDIOGENE
Start date: March 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this investigation is to test the hypothesis that in post-menopausal women with cardiometabolic risk, eating a relatively high daily amount of (poly)phenol-containing products (green tea, dark chocolate and berries) could reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. Changes in different biomarkers of lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress will be evaluated. Other related factors may be also affected, such as body mass index (BMI) and the percentage of body fat, dietary habits (total energy intake and macronutrient distribution) and microbiota composition.

HIIT Versus MICT on Abdominal Fat Mass and Lipid Oxidation in Postmenopausal Women (MATISSE)

MATISSE
Start date: February 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Postmenopausal women, as men, are more prone to central or android obesity than premenopausal women. Abdominal fat mass accumulation is associated with an increase of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Most exercise programs designed for weight loss have focused on about 30 min several times per week of moderate intensity continuous training (MICT). Disappointingly, such exercise programs have led to either none or low fat loss. Accumulating evidence suggests that high intensity interval training (HIIT) should be an effective exercise protocol for reducing body fat of overweight individuals, especially at the abdominal level. Resistance Training (RT) is associated with increased muscle mass and strength gain in main muscles groups. Thus, RT seems to be an interesting strategy to fight against deconditioning and autonomy loss with age. Development of muscle mass enhances resting metabolism rate. Thus, RT could raise daily energy expenditure ie. substrates' oxidation including lipids. The aim of our study was to compare the effects of a 12-week moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) program with high intensity interval training (HIIT) program combined or not with a resistance training (RT) program on total abdominal and visceral fat mass and substrate utilization in postmenopausal women. It is hypothesized that HIIT compared to MICT program would result in significantly greater whole body and regional fat mass losses (abdominal and visceral) and would improve lipid oxidation at rest and during prolonged moderate exercise. It is also hypothesized that HIIT associated with RT could be the best strategy to reduce fat mass.

Investigation on the Sustained Effect of Anthocyanins on Endothelial Function in Postmenopausal Women

Anthocyanins
Start date: January 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Anthocyanins are the most common polyphenols in berries and red wine, along with other flavonoids, phenolic acids, minerals and vitamins. Anthocyanins are extensively metabolized and they are transformed into glucuronides and phenolic acids. The investigators have recently shown that the acute consumption of blueberries leads to an increase in endothelium-dependent vasodilation measured as flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) in young male volunteers. There were significant correlations of these effects with the plasma concentration of phenolic acids and anthocyanin metabolites. Therefore, the present study aims at understanding to which extent the anthocyanins contained in berries are related with positive effects in endothelial function. A large part of the absorbed anthocyanin circulate in the blood in as methyl, glucuronyl and sulfate metabolites, as well as phenolic acids. The formation of these metabolites begins right as early as 2h after consumption due to metabolism at the small intestine and a second plasmatic peak occurs around 6h due the metabolism of colonic bacteria. Whether and which metabolites are associated with biological effects and the mechanisms underlying this effect remains unclear.
