Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of daily supplementation of a combined orange- and pomegranate extract for a period of 4 weeks on physical fitness compared to placebo.

In this crossover study, participants will daily receive either a placebo or Actiful®, a supplement containing 500 mg orange extract and 200 mg pomegranate actives, for 4 weeks followed by a wash-out period of 4 to 8 weeks. Subsequently, the second intervention period of 4 weeks (active product or placebo) will take place. The product and placebo will be supplied in capsules that participants can ingest with a glas of water (daily, prior to breakfast).


Clinical Trial Description

Dietary habits and physical activity are two important components of a healthy lifestyle. Targeted nutritional interventions may improve health and stimulate physical activity. Both orange extracts and pomegranate concentrate have been shown to exert beneficial effects on health and exercise performance. However, the effects of a combination of the two extracts on exercise and physical activity have not been investigated yet. It is expected that this combination may be an effective dietary way to improve exercise performance, physical activity in the free-living state, and quality of life in a middle aged population. ;
