Multi-Component Nutrition, Intrinsic Capacity, and Physical Function in Older Adults

Sponsor: National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

To evaluate the effects of a 12-week multi-component nutritional formula on World Health Organization (WHO) Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) intrinsic capacity domains, physical function, and metabolic biomarkers in community-dwelling older adults. Besides, the investigators use standardized ICOPE Step 2 assessments, functional capacity scales, and metabolic biomarkers (including GDF-15, HOMA-IR, TyG index, LAP, and FIB-4) as outcome measures to validate whether the multi-component nutritional supplement could improve intrinsic capacity and health in older adults.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Multi-Component Nutritional Formula

Daily oral consumption of the multi-component nutritional powder dissolved in warm water for 12 weeks. The formula contains muscle-anabolic proteins (whey protein, yeast protein, leucine), bone-supportive nutrients (MBP, coral calcium, vitamins D3/K2), and bioactive compounds (mulberry leaf extract, astragalus, grape seed extract, phosphatidylserine, fish oil, and lutein).

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

matched placebo

Daily oral consumption of the matched placebo powder dissolved in warm water for 12 weeks. The placebo is calorie-matched (within 10% caloric difference) but contains no active proteins, free amino acids, calcium/vitamin D3/K2 supplements, fish oil, or botanical extracts.
