Abstract:
This invention relates to the use of niacin and/or trigonelline compounds to increase muscle weight during periods of activity or to inhibit muscle loss during periods of inactivity.
Abstract:
Hydroxytyrosol or olive juice containing hydroxytyrosol in combination with at least one of the compounds selected from the group consisting of: creatine, coenzyme Q10, resveratrol, caffeine, carnitine, B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and/or B12) and ginseng (preferably: root) extract can be used to maintain or increase mitochondrial biogenesis in cardiac muscle, skeletal muscles, and liver tissue.
Abstract:
The use of at least one component selected from the group consisting of EGCG, hydroxytyrosol, resveratrol and derivatives, metabolites or analogues thereof in the manufacture of a nutraceutical composition for the prevention and treatment of muscle wasting leading to muscle loss, atrophy and other associated muscle disorders in animals, in particular mammals including humans.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of resveratrol, a derivative, metabolite or analogue thereof for promoting the wellness state of a mammal or for changing gene expression profiles in older adult mammals towards conformity with expression profiles found in younger adult mammals as well as to their use for the manufacture of corresponding nutraceutical compositions.
Abstract:
The use of resveratrol, a derivative, metabolite or analogue thereof, in combination with at least one additional component selected from EGCG, coenzyme Q-IO, genistein, lycopene, hydroxytyrosol and polyunsaturated fatty acids in the manufacture of a nutraceutical composition for delaying aging and/or for the treatment or prevention of age-related diseases in animals, in particular in mammals including humans.
Abstract:
The present invention relares to compounds of the formula (I) wherein R 3 is C 1-6 -alkyloxy, C 1-6 -acyloxy or aroyloxy; R 6 is hydrogen or C 1-6 -alkyloxy; R 7 is C 1-6 -alkyloxy, C 1-6 -acyloxy, aroyloxy or arylacyloxy; R 8 is hydrogen or C 1-6 -alkyloxy; or R 7 and R 8 form together a group O-L-O with L being (CR 1 R 2 ) n , with R 1 and R 2 being independently from each other hydrogen or C 1-5 -alkyl and n being an interger from 1 to 3; R 10 is hydrogen or N-C 1-4 -acyl, N- C 1-5 -alkyl-x-C x -alkyl with x being an interger from 1 to 5, for use as medicament for the treatment of a disorder connected to impaired glucose metabolism and impaired insulin action such as syndrome X and diabetes type 1,apd 2, especially for the treatment of (non-autoimmune) diabetes type 2. The invention also relates to food and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds.
Abstract:
Hydroxytyrosol or olive juice containing hydroxytyrosol can be used to maintain or increase mitochondrial biogenesis in cardiac muscle, skeletal muscles, and liver tissue.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel use of 3,3'-diindolylmethane (CAS1968-05-4) and/or its derivatives in the form of a pharmaceutical and/or nutritional composition to retard or delay typical signs of aging and/or age-related pathological changes.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to carnosol and rosmanol for use (as medicament) in the treatment of a disorder connected to reduced neurotransmission, cognitive dysfunction and/or symptoms caused by headache and/or migraine, as well as to dietary and pharmaceutical compositions and their uses.
