Dietary Strategy to Tackle Sarcopenia in Early Elderly Subjects (FOOP-Sarc)
NCT ID: NCT05485402 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 39 Completion: 2024-05-31
Conditions
Sarcopenia
Interventions
Refined olive oil (38.6 mg hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol/kg oil), Virgin olive oil rich in phenolic compounds (156 mg hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol/kg oil), Maltodextrin, Prebiotic (FOS and inulin), Nutritional and physical activity recommendations
Summary
The main objective of the present study is to add knowledge of the potential health effects and mechanism of action by a dietary strategy based on a VOO rich in phenolic compounds (156 mg hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol/kg oil) alone or combination with prebiotic supplementation based on fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin to tackle sarcopenia by improving skeletal muscle mass and function and CVD risk factors in early elderly (60-80 years) home-dwelling sarcopenic subjects.
The specific objectives:
- To determine the compliance food intake biomarkers of VOO in 24h urine samples and prebiotic intake in faecal samples.
- To evaluate the effect of the NFOC-diet supplemented by VOO rich in phenolic compounds (156 mg hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol/kg oil) alone or in combination with prebiotic supplementation (FOS and inulin) on the improvement of muscle mass, muscle performance, gait performance, cardiovascular disease risk factors (inflammation, oxidation and endothelial function), and gut microbiota, in sarcopenic young-elderly subjects.
- To assess the mechanisms of action of the NFOC-diet supplemented by VOO rich in phenolic compounds (156 mg hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol/kg oil) alone or in combination with prebiotic supplementation (FOS and inulin) involved in the development of sarcopenia and cardiovascular disease in vivo and in vitro cellular models.
- To determine if the effects achieved after the intervention (12 weeks of intervention) will be sustained 12 weeks after the FOOP-Sarc intervention cessation (12 weeks of intervention + 12 weeks of follow-up), by assessing the sarcopenia and CVD risk factors in sarcopenic early elderly subjects.
- To co-create nutritional and physical activity recommendations of FOOP-Sarc study based on sarcopenia improvement by a sample of volunteers of the FOOP-Sarc study, and to assess the adherence and the effectivity of the recommendations, in comparison to standard recommendations created by researchers, the satisfaction and enga
