Effect of combined bifidobacteria supplementation and resistance training on cognitive function, body composition and bowel hab
Nutrition | BW, BMI, FFM, PBF | T. Inoue et al. | 2018 | Japan | Beneficial Microbes
Physical exercise exerts favourable effects on brain health and quality of life of the elderly; some of these positive health effects are induced by the modulation of microbiota composition. We therefore conducted a randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled trial that assessed whether a combination of Bifidobacterium spp. supplementation and moderate resistance training improved the cognitive function and other health-related parameters in healthy elderly subjects. Over a 12-week period, 38 participants (66-78 years) …
Efficacy of preoperative amino acid supplements on postoperative physical function and complications in open heart surgery pati
Nutrition | Body Composition | M. Ogawa et al. | 2019 | Japan | Journal of Cardiology
Background Elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery often show poor nutritional status, muscle wasting, and sarcopenia, which are reported to affect postoperative functional recovery and incidence of complications. Amino acids are essential in maintaining nutritional status, synthesizing muscle protein, and promoting beneficial energy balance of the heart muscle. β-Hydroxy β-methylbutyric acid (HMB) is a leucine metabolite known to increase muscle protein synthesis and inhibit protein catabolism; it has been used to more …

Background and aims Inflammatory processes has been shown to be associated with the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in which vitamin D supplementation might exert beneficial outcomes. We examined the effects of vitamin D supplement on inflammatory and cell adhesion molecule in patients with T2DM. Methods This study consisted of 50 patients with T2DM who had vitamin D deficiency. Participants were randomized into two groups of 25 in which the intervention group received two intramuscular …
Methanobrevibacter attenuation via probiotic intervention reduces flatulence in adult human: A non-randomised paired-design cli
Nutrition | BW, BMI, TBW, FFM, SMM, BFM, PBF, WHR, BMR, Protein, Mineral | M Seo et al. | 2017 | Korea | PLoS One
Trial design The aim of this study was to investigate which of the gut microbes respond to probiotic intervention, as well as study whether they are associated with gastrointestinal symptoms in a healthy adult human. For the experimental purpose, twenty-one healthy adults were recruited and received probiotic mixture, which is composed of five Lactobacilli strains and two Bifidobacteria strains, once a day for 60 days. Defecation survey and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis were conducted pre-and post-administration to measure …

Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of a 24‐week program of nutritional supplementation using whey protein, ingested after resistance exercise, in increasing muscle mass and physical function among community‐dwelling healthy older Japanese women. Methods We carried out a randomized controlled trial, with 81 healthy women, aged 65–80 years, allocated to three groups of 27 participants each: the exercise and protein supplementation group, the exercise only group, and the protein supplementation only group. A 24‐week …
Daily yogurt consumption improves glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in young nondiabetic Japanese subjects with type-2
Nutrition | BW, BMI, SMM, BFM | D Watanabe et al. | 2018 | Japan | Nutrients
This study investigated whether the association between postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) is affected by five type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) susceptibility genes, and whether four weeks of yogurt consumption would affect these responses. We performed a single-arm intervention study in young nondiabetic Japanese participants, who consumed 150 g yogurt daily for four weeks, after which a rice test meal containing 50 g carbohydrate was administered. PPG and postprandial serum insulin (PSI) were measured between 0 and 120 …
