Probiotics for Enhanced Tissue Carotenoid Status in Premenopausal Women — ProCar  

Gut Microbiome Clinical Trial

Official title:
Probiotics for Enhanced Tissue Carotenoid Status: a Double-blind, Randomized, Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

Carotenoids are yellow-orange fat soluble plant pigments primarily obtained from the diet that serve as an accurate biomarker for fruit and vegetable intake. Carotenoids have demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-obesogenic properties among others. Excess carotenoids are deposited in the skin for storage where they protect against UV skin damage and contribute to improvements in skin health (i.e., decrease the appearance of wrinkles). However, carotenoid status is linked to bioavailability and absorption, which has a high inter-individual variability. It has been hypothesized that inter-individual variations are related to the diversity of gut microbiota. The aim of the present study is to determine whether probiotic supplementation can enhance carotenoid status and responsiveness to carotenoid-mediated changes in blood and skin from intake of a supplement containing mixed forms of carotenoids in pre-menopausal women.
