Sarcopenia and teacatechins

Sarkopenie und Teekatechine Von Prof. Gene Bruno, MS, MHS, RH(AHG) Huntington College of Health Sciences Sarkopenie oder der Rückgang des Skelettmuskelgewebes und der Verlust der Muskelfunktion oder -kraft mit zunehmendem Alter ist eine der wichtigsten Ursachen für den Funktionsabfall und den Verlust der Unabhängigkeit bei älteren Erwachsenen. Seine Ursache wird weithin als multifaktoriell angesehen, wobei neurologischer Rückgang, hormonelle Veränderungen, Aktivierung des Entzündungswegs, Aktivitätsrückgang, chronische Krankheiten, Fettinfiltration und schlechte Ernährung nachweislich beitragende Faktoren sind. Jüngste molekulare Erkenntnisse in Bezug auf Apoptose, mitochondrialen Abbau und das Angiotensin-System in der Skelettmuskulatur haben biologische Mechanismen aufgezeigt, die dazu beitragen könnten.1 Behandlung von Sarkopenie Ergebnisse …

Its cause is largely considered multifactorial, with neurological decline, hormonal changes, activation of the inflammation path, decline in activity, activity, chronic diseases, fat in filtration and poor nutrition.

sarcopenia or the decline in the skeletal muscle tissue and the loss of muscle function or strength with increasing age is one of the most important causes of the drop in function and the loss of independence in older adults. Its cause is largely considered multifactorial, with neurological decline, hormonal changes, activation of the inflammation path, decline in activity, activity, chronic diseases, fat in filtration and poor nutrition. The latest molecular knowledge in relation to apoptosis, mitochondrial dismantling and the angiotensin system in the skeletal muscles have shown biological mechanisms that could contribute.

treatment of sarcopenia
Results of clinical intervention studies Even with the oldest and most frequent residents of nursing homes have shown a significant functional improvement in sarcopenia by combining nutrition and resistance training. help.

treatment with catechins and movement
In order to examine the effects of physical activity and/or teecatechin supplementation on muscle mass, strength and walking skills in older subjects with sarcopenia, a study 4 was divided into four groups in a total of 128 Sarcopenic women between the ages of 75: physical activity and tea catechin supplement (350 ml tea + 540 mg Catechin) (n = 32), movement (n = 32), tea catechin supplement (n = 32) or health education (n = 32). The training group took part in a 60-minute-comprehensive training program twice a week, and the tea catechin supplement group took 350 ml a day of a tea breakdown enriched with Catechin for three months. The body composition was determined by bioelectric impedance analysis. Interview data and functional fitness measurements such as muscle strength, balance and walking ability were collected at the start of the course and after the three -month intervention. The results showed that at Timed Up & Go (p <0.001), normal walking speed (p = 0.007) and maximum walking speed (p <0.001), significant group-time interactions were observed. Compared to the group with health education, the group + catechin showed a significant effect on changes in the combined variable leg muscle mass and usual walking speed. In summary, it can be said that the combination of movement and tea echin supplementation had a positive effect on the physical function, measured in terms of walking and muscle mass.

FAZIT
In view of the simple access to tea/green tea products that are standardized for the polyphenol catechin content (e.g. EGCG, etc.), it seems that the supplementation with catechins can be a practical addition to a comprehensive program (which includes strength training and nutrition) for patients with sarcopenia.
