Abstract:
Here we described nutritional supplements containing baicalin, curcumin, green tea catechins, vitamin E, vitamin C, coenzyme Q10, L-acetyl-carnitine, DHA, EPA and their methods of use in improving muscle function, endurance and physical performance after exercise. The nutritional supplements can be used to enhance endurance capacity and muscle recovery, to increase muscle mass, preventing muscle loss, to reduce muscle fatigue, maintaining muscle performance, muscle strength, and/or muscle function. Moreover they are able to prevent catabolism (muscle atrophy or wasting) when administrated to a mammalian subject.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a biological oil composition, preferably obtained from a copepod, most preferably the copepod Calanus finmarchicus and the use thereof to prevent or treat formation of atherosclerotic plaques and hence development of coronary heart disease. The composition comprises the same marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) generally regarded as being responsible for the anti-atherosclerotic effect of marine oils, namely EPA (C20:5n-3 eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (C22:6n-3 docosahexaenoic acid). However, quite unexpectedly, it has been found that the oil composition of the present invention has a remarkably higher ability to prevent formation of atherosclerotic plaques than what can be attributed to EPA and DHA alone, and moreover, unlike EPA and DHA alone it has a notable blood cholesterol lowering effect.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to infant nutrition, in particular to infant nutrition comprising special lipid globules for improvement of the fatty acid composition in brain membranes.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a composition suitable for use as a health product, comprising a mixture of active ingredients made up of at least: - a lactoserum hydrolysate with a molecular weight comprised between 200 and 5000 daltons, - alpha-lactalbumin, - at least one AMPK, MAPK, PPAR and/or SIRT1 cycle regulator, - milk calcium. It is particularly useful as a medical nutrition product or orally administered drug, to prevent and/or combat various diseases.
Abstract:
Provided herein are compositions comprising eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and polar lipids (e.g., glycolipids and phospholipids), and which do not contain any docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) or esterified fatty acids.
