Ages: 65 Years – N/A
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 70
Sponsor: National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University
Location: Kaohsiung Veterans General Hospital Kaohsiung City
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.
