Purpose: Berries and mixed berry products exert acute effects on postprandial glycaemia and insulinemia, but very few berries have been studied, and primarily in normal weight subjects. Sea buckthorn and strawberry are compositionally widely different berries and may likely produce different
Hypoxic training embraces different methods as "live high - train high" (LHTH) and "live high - train low" (LHTL); sleeping at altitude to gain the hematologic adaptations (increased erythrocyte volume) but training at sea level to maximize performance (maintenance of sea level training intensity
Study design: A single-center pilot open-label randomized control trial. Population: The study will comprise a total of 60 subjects of both sexes, between 10 and 18 years of age, obese, according to the IOTF criteria (Cole TJ et al., 2000) and with visceral adiposity, as waist circumference ≥ 90th
The aim of the project was to investigate whether it is possible to reduce the risk of metabolic diseases with supplementing the diet with sea buckthorn berries (Hippophaë rhamnoides), their bioactive fractions, and bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus). The study design was a randomized cross-over
Twenty-four, normal to overweight (body mass index of 18.5-29.9 kg/m2), physically active adult civilians or active duty military personnel will be recruited for the 44-d protocol, 22-d at sea level and 22-d at high altitude (HA). During the 22-d sea level phase, volunteers will receive dietary
Obesity prevalence is increasing around the world and the United Kingdom is no exception. Latest statistics show that approximately 25% of the UK population is obese and is predicted to rise to 70% by 2020 if present trends continue. Obesity is particularly widespread in Scotland where approximately
High-frequency ultrasound (US) is increasingly used to help distinguish malignancy in patients with solitary or multiple nodules, and US-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) has become the gold standard test for detecting thyroid cancer. Moreover, a further US-based risk stratification of thyroid
N-3 PUFA are important for human health and nutrition. Due to the increasing world population, overfishing of the seas and generally low amounts of n-3 PUFA in major oil crops, there is a demand for new sources of n-3 PUFA.
One approach involves searching for potential vegetable sources of n-3 PUFA;
Aquamin is a seaweed-derived mineral source, which is rich in calcium, magnesium and 74 other trace minerals including zinc, iron and selenium. It is produced from the red algae, Lithothamnion Calcareum, which is found in just three locations in the world, including the south-west coast of Ireland
In the present randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study, subjects will be exposed to normobaric 1) mild hypoxia (oxygen level: 15%) and 2) normoxia (oxygen level: 21%) during exercise (2 x 30min/day on a cycle ergometer) of the same relative exercise intensity (equal to 50%WMAX
Background: Greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet, a traditional dietary pattern of the wider region of the Mediterranean sea, has been associated with favourable cardiometabolic outcomes, including the prevention of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, limited local
DAUGHTER AND MOTHER - FULL INTERVENTION STUDY:
Women who are overweight have a greater chance of developing breast cancer as they get older, and also are at greater risk of developing more aggressive cancer. Researchers want to study 3 different home-based diet and exercise weight loss programs and
The "strong pulse disease" was treated by acupuncture, phlebotomy and leeches from 2600 to c. Modern history began when in 1628 William Harvey described the circulatory system and in 1733 stephen hales made the first blood pressure measurement. In 1896 was recognized as a clinical entity, thanks to
