Life expectancy has increased unprecedentedly in recent decades, benefiting the longevity of the world's population. The most frequent pathological conditions presented in this age group include excessive body fat, frailty, and hypercholesterolemia. These pathological characteristics condition general health and autonomy in adults to carry out their usual activities. In this sense, the search for a healthy lifestyle is necessary, consisting in a healthy diet that includes supplementation with nutraceuticals and the daily practice of physical activity. This study protocol aims to evaluate the independent and synergistic effect of 12 weeks of intake (5 g/day), with or without an exercise program on metabolic and fitness parameters of 52 sedentary older adults with excessive body mass in a double-blind, randomized, crossover, controlled trial design. The main findings from this trial will provide novel evidence for future interventions designed for the elderly population and the result will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and international meetings. ClinicalTrials.gov identification number: NCT04658875 (Effect of and Exercise on General Fitness and Blood Lipids in Older Adults).
近年来，预期寿命呈前所未有的增长趋势，使世界人口更加长寿。在这个年龄段，最常见的病理状况包括过多的体脂肪、虚弱和高胆固醇血症。这些病理特征会影响成年人的整体健康和自理能力，使其无法进行日常活动。在这种情况下，寻求健康的生活方式是必要的，包括健康饮食，补充营养保健品和每天进行体育锻炼。本研究方案旨在评估 12 周的摄入（每天 5 克），无论是否进行运动计划，对 52 名久坐超重的老年人代谢和健康参数的独立和协同作用，采用双盲、随机、交叉、对照试验设计。该试验的主要发现将为针对老年人群的未来干预措施提供新的证据，研究结果将通过同行评议的期刊和国际会议进行传播。临床试验编号：NCT04658875（和运动对老年人一般健康和血脂的影响）。
