Physical fitness was determined by the Senior Fitness Test with significant improvement in anaerobic power observed in the Actiful® group compared to placebo. The WHO Quality of Life questionnaire was completed by the participants, to assess their quality of life which resulted in a significant improvement in Mental Wellness in the Actiful® group compared to placebo.
