Nutrition and Cardiometabolic Health

The Nutrition and Cardiometabolic Health special collection aims to advance our understanding of how dietary patterns, macronutrient composition, micronutrient intake, and dietary supplements influence cardiometabolic risk factors. We welcome submissions that delve into various aspects of the relationship between nutrition and cardiometabolic health, including dietary patterns, macronutrient composition, micronutrient intake, and dietary supplements, with a focus on their impact on cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and related conditions.

Study Title
Inflammatory Profile of Older Adults in Response to Physical Activity and Diet Supplementation: A Systematic Review

Principal Investigator

Study Objective
To evaluate the effects of physical activity combined with dietary supplementation on inflammatory markers in older adults.

Short Abstract
This systematic review analyzes 11 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 638 older adults. The review assessed the effects of exercise and dietary supplementation on inflammatory markers, finding that most studies observed a decrease in pro-inflammatory cytokines and a slight increase in anti-inflammatory markers. The review emphasizes the need for more well-designed studies to confirm the potential synergistic effects of exercise and supplementation.

Study Design
Systematic review

Population
Older adults (age 60+)
