A High-PRotein Mediterranean Diet and Resistance Exercise for Cardiac Rehabilitation

Sponsor: Liverpool John Moores University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Cardiovascular disease is responsible for a quarter of all deaths in the UK and risk seems to be higher in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) with lower body weight which may be due to sarcopenci obesity (SO) or low muscle mass with high fat mass. The investigators aim to investigate the effect of a high protein Mediterranean diet and resistance exercise on improving lean mass and reducing risk markers of cardiovascular disease
