Filter by:The purpose of this study was the investigation of the hypothesis that the enhancement of a refined olive oil with orange peel extract, may improve the postprandial lipidemic, glycemic profile and blood oxidative status, of volunteers with high cardiometabolic risk, due to increased content of bioactive compounds (polyphenols, carotenoids etc.).
Today, insufficient sleep has become a growing global problem. Sleep is essential to health and changes in sleep patterns are a part of the aging process. Inadequate and low-quality sleep also increases the risk for age-related cognitive decline and disease conditions. More importantly, due to COVID-19 health emergency, there is a significant increase of psychological distress and symptoms of mental illness and a worsening of quality of sleep. Therefore, there is an urgent need to investigate the way of improving sleep quality, in particular during and post COVID-19 period, in older adults. One of the possible strategies in improving sleep quality with lifestyle modification is having higher-protein diet. However, this effect has not been fully elucidated in older adults. In addition, the effect of type of dietary protein on sleep quality is inconclusive and there is no clinical trial which assessed the differential response in sleep quality between animal-sourced protein vs. plant-sourced protein. Therefore, the purpose of this research project is to assess the impact of different types of higher dietary protein intake on sleep quality in Singapore older adults. Findings from the proposed research will provide the scientific evidence of the beneficial effects of regularly consuming higher-protein diet on sleep quality in Singapore older adults. In addition, this research may validate the differential effect of different type of dietary protein on sleep quality. The results from the proposed research will also assist a practical guidance of nutritional behaviour changes providing sleep promoting effects to a large proportion of the Singapore population.
GraviD is a multi-ethnic population-based pregnancy cohort. Pregnant women were invited to participate in the GraviD study when registering for antenatal care in parts of the region of Västra Götaland in Sweden in 2013-2014. All women registering for antenatal care were eligible for inclusion, as long as the pregnancy had not exceeded 16 gestational weeks. In total, 2125 pregnant women were recruited in gestational week 12 during two time-periods; fall 2013 and spring 2014. Blood sampling was performed in gestational week <17 and again at gestational week >31 by midwifes. After delivery, the maternity records were obtained, to collect information on child's gender, birth weight and length and other possible birth outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 6-weeks of increased dairy consumption can reduce inflammation and other markers of chronic disease while fasted or following a high-fat meal.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the effects of diet and exercise interventions on body weight, cardiovascular metabolic markers, executive function, and intestinal flora among undergraduate students, as well as the underlying mechanisms.
Study 1: To investigate the effects of antioxidant-rich sugar as alternative compared to granulated sugar on gene expression and other metabolic parameters in healthy subjects. The hypotheses is antioxidant-rich sugar have positive effects on reducing inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress biomarkers and other metabolic parameters in intervention group compared to control group. Study 2: To evaluate the effectiveness of a nutrition education module in modifying sugar consumption and other CMR-related outcomes in individuals with cardiometabolic risk. The hypotheses is the nutrition education module significantly improves the sugar consumption and other CMR-related outcomes in the intervention groups compared to the control group
Evaluate the effectiveness of intermittency anaerobic exercise interventions among the students with high risk of cardiometabolic .
The purpose of this study is to estimate the effects of caloric restriction and exercise on body weight, cardiovascular metabolic markers, immune function, and intestinal flora among college students, as well as the underlying mechanisms.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the synergistic effects of daily consumption of food products fortified with bioactive components (fibres, polyphenols, omega-3, Slow Digestible Starch) for 9 weeks, compared to the daily intake of standard food products on low-grade inflammation in cardiometabolic risk subject. The inflammatory parameters will be assessed in fasting and in postprandial period after the consumption of a hyper-carbohydrate and hyper-lipidic test meal called Flexmeal. A metabolic stress will be induced by a fructose ingestion challenge during the last 6 days of interventional period.
This is a randomized controlled pilot study to evaluate the effects of intermittent caloric restriction compared with low carbohydrate diet in youth with cardiometabolic risk.
