Sustainable Exercise and Nutrition Programs for Managing Metabolic Disorders in Older Women

Sponsor: University of Alicante

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the impact of sustainable diet and exercise programs on metabolic health and quality of life in older women. Participants will be assigned to different intervention groups including supervised physical training, personalized dietary guidance based on the Mediterranean dietary pattern, or a combination of both. The programs will be implemented over several weeks, with continuous monitoring of variables such as body composition, functional capacity, strength, fatigue perception, sleep quality, and emotional well-being. The project also includes the development of a digital platform to support remote engagement and long-term health behavior change.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Sustainable Diet Program

Intervention based on the Mediterranean sustainable diet. It emphasizes the consumption of fish, fruits, and vegetables, while reducing the intake of meat and meat-derived products. The diet is tailored to the participants' health status, activity level, and nutritional requirements, following the recommendations of the Spanish Society of Cardiology and Endocrinology. Macronutrient and micronutrient goals follow national guidelines and are tracked using specialized dietary software.

BEHAVIORAL

Supervised Physical Exercise Program

A 12-week supervised physical exercise program led by certified professionals in Sport Sciences. Exercise prescriptions are tailored individually based on baseline assessments and international guidelines from fields such as cardiology and metabolism. The sessions may include strength, endurance, or combined training. In the supervised period, the instructor guides the sessions, while during the unsupervised period, exercises are followed via an online platform that provides detailed explanations and graphics.

BEHAVIORAL

Combined Sustainable Diet and Exercise Program

This experimental arm combines the dietary intervention based on the sustainable Mediterranean diet with the structured physical exercise program. Both components are personalized and adhere to national and international health and nutrition recommendations. The program includes a 12-week supervised phase and an unsupervised online phase, aiming to maximize improvements in metabolic, physical, and psychosocial health in older women with metabolic alterations.
