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.).
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 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.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of an intervention to prevent chronic diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity in midlife and older Latino adults living with HIV. The investigators expect that the participant will be in this study for seven months. Participants will be interviewed and asked to take part in walking groups.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the beneficial effects on gut microbiota composition and activity of the diary intake of insoluble fiber (extract from Aspergillus Niger) for three weeks. The first studies about the fiber have shown a favorable gut microbiota modulation and an improvement of metabolic parameters like LDL cholesterol. In addition to fecal measurements, several biomarkers of colic fermentation will be assessed: expired gases, PolyUnsaturated Fatty Acid, Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) after a rich-fiber breakfast (= 15 grams) and a nutritional challenge test at lunch. The gastrointestinal tolerance of fiber intake and the intestinal transit modification will be also followed during all the study.
There is little doubt scientifically that healthy eating, such as adhering to the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) principles, is key for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). There is also convincing evidence for a strong inverse relationship between moderate intensity physical activity (PA) and mortality. Surprisingly, no study has yet formally documented how the combination of a MedDiet and regular PA improves cardiometabolic health in high-risk individuals. Why is this an important issue to address? On the one hand, a rigorous demonstration that the combination of a healthy diet and PA is better than the sum of each part in terms of cardiometabolic benefits will underpin the importance of advocating the combination of both modalities systematically to maximize health effects. Alternatively (and provocatively), results showing that healthy eating and PA have non-additive or non-synergistic effects will imply that one needs to adhere to only one of these two lifestyle modalities to maximizes cardiometabolic benefits. The overarching aim of this research is to test the hypothesis that consumption of a MedDiet combined with PA do act synergistically to improve cardiometabolic risk. The investigators hypothesize that healthy eating and PA act in synergy to reduce postprandial lipemia, a powerful independent risk factor for coronary heart disease.
This study focused on evaluating the association between adherence to the Mediterranean diet during pregnancy and offspring longitudinal body mass index trajectories and cardiometabolic risk in early-childhood. This study is part of a secondary data analysis of the INMA (INfancia y Medio Ambiente-(Environment and Childhood)) Project.
Pilot study to compare the impact of following a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet versus following a high-carbohydrates, moderate-fat diet (UK dietary guidelines) on cardiometabolic risk markers and associated behaviours in a normal-weight and overweight adult population.
