Started new clinical trial with Actiful®
Started new clinical trial with Actiful®
Maastricht, Netherlands, May 4th, 2022
Press release
BioActor has officially started a new clinical trial with Actiful® in healthy middle-aged adults. Actiful® is BioActor’s innovative citrus and pomegranate complex ingredient designed to enhance vitality and support an active lifestyle.
The new randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study
BioActor announced today that it has officially started the new intervention study on Actiful®.
Actiful® is an orange and pomegranate complex with demonstrated health benefits such as improving blood flow, increasing energy levels, improving mitochondrial efficiency and boosting mental well-being.
This is the second clinical study that will be conducted with Actiful® and it will be performed in collaboration with Maastricht University at the research facilities in Maastricht and Venlo.
Duting this new double-blind placebo-controlled study, 52 healthy middle-aged (40-65 years) will take the supplements (or the placebo) for a duration of 12 weeks. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of Actiful® on physical fitness, vitality and quality of life.
The primary outcome (VO2max) will be estimated by use of the Ekblom-Bak submaximal test, a novel test performed on a cycle ergometer.
Additionally, a sub-group of participants will undergo a skeletal muscle biopsy to explore the effect of Actiful® on mitochondrial biogenesis and muscle repair.
As we age, we tend to have less energy and lose vitality. Functional foods and dietary supplements containing polyphenols are seen as an excellent strategy for long term sustained energy production. BioActor is addressing this need by developing a unique product- Actiful®. This product consists of all-natural ingredients from oranges and pomegranates.
“I’m really excited to be part of this project as the combined effect of hesperidin and punicalagin on enhanced performance has never been studied before”, says Maria Imperatrice, the study executive researcher in Maastricht. “We are very curious to explore their effect on human exercise and deepen the knowledge of the effect of polyphenols on mitochondrial biogenesis and muscle regeneration.”
