入排标准

性别
All

入选标准

  • 1. Males and females aged 50 - 75 years
  • 2. Overweight and obese subjects (BMI range: 25-40 kg/m²)
  • 3. Non-smokers
  • 4. Weight stable

排除标准

  • 1. Current participation in other research clinical studies
  • 2. Vegetarianism (likely to have very high nitrate intake)
  • 3. Weight change more than 3.0 kg in the last 2 months (important influence on systemic metabolism and vascular function)
  • 4. Active cancer and any diagnosis of malignant cancer in the last 5 years (systemic effects on study outcomes)
  • 5. Diagnosis of chronic and acute metabolic and inflammatory conditions interfering with the study outcome (systemic effects on study outcomes). For example, flu, Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis
  • 6. Previous diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes treated with insulin (modification of regulation of intermediate metabolism). Type 2 diabetic patients treated with diet only or and oral hypoglycaemic agents with dose stable for at least 3 months will be included in the study
  • 7. Weight loss medications (sibutramine, orlistat, rimonabant) and history of bariatric surgery (weight loss related changes in systemic metabolism)
  • 8. Drugs: corticosteroids, sildenafil, aspirin, NSAIDs, diuretics, antacids, anticoagulants, nitrate-derived agents, anti-cholinergic, (all drugs may have either an effect on NO production or insulin sensitivity via different mechanisms)
  • 9. Subjects on hormonal therapies (oestrogens, thyroxine, progesteron), anti-hypertensive (Ca++ channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers,), statins and any other antidyslipidaemic agent, and psychiatric drugs (antidepressants, sedatives, antipsychotics) will be excluded if the dose has been started/changed in the previous 3 months (make sure that these disorders are under strict control to avoid interference with the study outcomes)
  • 10. Severe haematological disorders (risk for the participant and effects on the study outcomes)
  • 11. Major surgical operations interfering with the study outcomes (systemic effects on study outcomes)
  • 12. Alcohol intake >21 units/week for men and >14 units/week for women
  • 13. Blood donations in the previous 3 months
