To assess the impact of a personalized diet, with or without addition of VSL#3 preparation, on biomarkers of inflammation, nutrition, oxidative stress and intestinal microbiota in 62 healthy persons aged 65-85 years.
Open label, randomized, multicenter study.
High-sensitivity C-reactive protein.
Community.
Eight week web-based dietary advice (RISTOMED platform) alone or with supplementation of VSL#3 (2 capsules per day). The RISTOMED diet was optimized to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.
Blood and stool samples were collected on days 1 and 56.
Diet alone reduced ESR (p = 0.02), plasma levels of cholesterol (p < 0.01) and glucose (p = 0.03). Addition of VSL#3 reduced ESR (p = 0.05) and improved folate (p = 0.007), vitamin B12 (p = 0.001) and homocysteine (p < 0.001) plasma levels. Neither intervention demonstrated any further effects on inflammation. Subgroup analysis showed 40 participants without signs of low-grade inflammation (hsCRP<3 mg/l, subgroup 1) and 21 participants with low-grade inflammation at baseline (hsCRP≥3 mg/l, subgroup 2). In subgroup 2 addition of VSL#3 increased bifidobacteria (p = 0.005) in more participants and improved both folate (p = 0.015) and vitamin B12 (p = 0.035) levels compared with subgroup 1. The increases were positively correlated to the change in the bifidobacteria concentration for folate (p = 0.023) and vitamin B12 (p = 0.001). As expected change in homocysteine correlated negatively to change in folate (r = -0.629, p = 0.002) and vitamin B12 (r = -0.482, p = 0.026).
Addition of VSL#3 increased bifidobacteria and supported adequate folate and vitamin B12 concentrations in subjects with low-grade inflammation. Decrease in homocysteine with VSL#3 was clinically relevant. suggesting protective potentials for aging-associated conditions, e.g. cardiovascular or neurological diseases.

评估个性化饮食(添加或不添加VSL#3制剂)对62名65 - 85岁健康人群炎症、营养、氧化应激生物标志物及肠道微生物群的影响。
开放标签、随机、多中心研究。
高敏C反应蛋白。
社区。
单独进行为期八周的基于网络的饮食建议(RISTOMED平台)或补充VSL#3(每日2粒胶囊)。RISTOMED饮食经过优化以减轻炎症和氧化应激。
在第1天和第56天采集血液和粪便样本。
单纯饮食降低了红细胞沉降率(p = 0.02)、血浆胆固醇水平(p < 0.01)和血糖水平(p = 0.03)。添加VSL#3降低了红细胞沉降率(p = 0.05),并改善了叶酸(p = 0.007)、维生素B12(p = 0.001)和同型半胱氨酸的血浆水平(p < 0.001)。两种干预措施均未显示对炎症有任何进一步影响。亚组分析显示,40名参与者无低度炎症迹象(高敏C反应蛋白<3mg/l,亚组1),21名参与者在基线时有低度炎症(高敏C反应蛋白≥3mg/l,亚组2)。在亚组2中,与亚组1相比,添加VSL#3使更多参与者的双歧杆菌增加(p = 0.005),并改善了叶酸(p = 0.015)和维生素B12水平(p = 0.035)。这些增加与叶酸(p = 0.023)和维生素B12(p = 0.001)的双歧杆菌浓度变化呈正相关。正如预期的那样,同型半胱氨酸的变化与叶酸变化呈负相关(r = -0.629,p = 0.002)和维生素B12变化呈负相关(r = -0.482,p = 0.026)。
添加VSL#3可增加低度炎症受试者的双歧杆菌数量,并维持足够的叶酸和维生素B12浓度。VSL#3降低同型半胱氨酸具有临床意义,提示对与衰老相关的疾病如心血管疾病或神经疾病具有潜在保护作用。ClinicalTrials.gov:NCT01069445 - NCT01179789。
