Impact of Cocoa Flavanols on Pulmonary Oxygen Uptake Kinetics and Exercise Tolerance in Sedentary Middle-aged Adults

Aging Clinical Trial

Official title:
Investigating the Impact of Cocoa Flavanol Supplementation on Pulmonary Oxygen Uptake Kinetics and Exercise Tolerance in Sedentary Middle-aged Adults

Clinical Trial Summary

In recent years, there has been significant interest in dietary flavonoids (biologically active plant-derived compounds) as potential therapeutics. This is due to the capacity of flavonoids to enhance processes related to energy metabolism and cardiovascular health. We are interested in implementing a short-term supplementation regime (daily cocoa-flavanoid ingestion), in order to explore the possible beneficial effects of flavonoid-based interventions on responses to exercise. Hence, the objective of our study is to examine the impact of short term cocoa-flavanoid supplementation on processes related to energy use (oxygen utilisation). Our aim is to develop a novel intervention which improves cardiovascular health and enhances exercise tolerance.
