Abstract: A composition comprising one or more polyphenols, such as oleuropein, rutin, curcumin or quercetin, can treat or prevent sarcopenia, reduce a loss of muscle functionality (e.g. muscle strength, gait speed, etc.), increase muscle functionality, and/or improve recovery of muscle functionality after muscle atrophy. The composition can be administered to an individual who is elderly and/or frail.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a non-therapeutic use of whey protein micelles to enhance muscle protein synthesis in a subject. Further aspects are directed to liquid compositions comprising whey protein micelles to be administered to children, athletes, or elderly persons.

Abstract: A composition comprising a protein source and an antioxidant, optionally in combination with an omega-3 fatty acid, can treat or prevent sarcopenia in elderly males, reduce a loss of muscle functionality (e.g. muscle strength, gait speed, etc.) in elderly males, increase muscle functionality in elderly males, and/or improve recovery of muscle functionality after muscle atrophy in elderly males.

Abstract: A composition contains curcumin and can treat or prevent sarcopenia, reduce a loss of muscle functionality (e.g. muscle strength, gait speed, etc.), increase muscle functionality, and/or improve recovery of muscle functionality after muscle atrophy. The composition can be administered to an individual who is elderly and/or frail, optionally in a composition that further includes an omega-3 fatty acid and/or a protein source.

Abstract: A composition comprising one or more polyphenols, such as oleuropein, rutin, curcumin or quercetin, can treat or prevent sarcopenia, reduce a loss of muscle functionality (e.g. muscle strength, gait speed, etc.), increase muscle functionality, and/or improve recovery of muscle functionality after muscle atrophy. The composition can be administered to an individual who is elderly and/or frail.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment or prevention of conditions linked to reduced muscle mass or reduced muscle protein synthesis rate. A subject matter of the invention is a composition comprising complexes of whey protein micelles and pectin for use in the treatment or prevention of a condition selected from the group consisting of sarcopenia, muscle atrophy and negative nitrogen balance. Further aspects of the invention relate to the non-therapeutic use of a composition comprising complexes of whey protein micelles and pectin and a food composition.

Abstract: Compositions contain citrulline and leucine or a metabolite thereof including, for example, a synergistic amount of citrulline and leucine. Such compositions may be used in methods for the treatment of pre-diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, or diabetes.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided that are useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. The Compositions and methods are suitable in the prevention or postponement of a relapse in inflammatory bowel disease patients.

Abstract: A composition comprising whey protein and optionally Vitamin D and calcium can be administered to an individual to decrease fat deposition in muscle; increase muscle density; improve or maintain muscle quality; and/or treat or prevent muscle weakness. The composition can be administered to an elderly individual or an individual having a condition associated with increased fat infiltration in muscle to treat the condition, such as obesity. Preferably at least a portion of the whey protein is whey protein micelles, and a daily dose of the whey protein is at least 18 g.

Abstract: A nutritional composition is used to reconstitute an optimal healthy microbiota ecosystem in humans or animals. In particular, an ingestible carrier contains specific amino acids designed to favor the growth of bacteria favorable to individuals health or for reducing the risk of developing deleterious events. In another aspect, specific amino acids are used to reconstitute an optimal healthy microbiota ecosystem in humans or animals, in particular in infants, critically ill patients, in the case of chronic diseases or any stresses impacting the gut and in elderly people.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to compositions that comprise citrulline and leucine or a metabolite thereof including, for example, a synergistic amount of citrulline and leucine. Such compositions may be used in methods for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, and/or hyperinsulinemia.

Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided that treat or prevent inflammation using serine. A therapeutically effective amount of serine is administered to an individual, for example a human or other mammal, that has inflammation or is at risk of inflammation. The methods and compositions can control and/or alleviate an inflammatory reaction of the body, such as colitis.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to the field of medical nutrition. For example, the present invention provides a composition that can be used to treat, prevent and/or reverse muscle atrophy related to immobilization and its consequences. One embodiment of the present invention concerns a composition comprising a leucine and antioxidants that can be used in accelerating muscle recovery after muscle atrophy.

Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided that use proline, serine and threonine to promote healing of the intestinal mucosa. A therapeutically effective amount of proline, serine and threonine is administered to an individual in need thereof, for example a human or other mammal, such as an individual that has damaged intestinal mucosa. The methods and compositions can promote mucosal healing, restore gut barrier function, repair intestinal epithelial cells, promote protection of the colonic epithelium, and/or promote the replenishment of goblet cells in the intestinal and colonic mucosa.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided that are useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. The Compositions and methods are suitable in the prevention or postponement of a relapse in inflammatory bowel disease patients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining the distinctive nutritional requirements of a patient with specific nutritional needs and providing a composition meeting the distinctive nutritional requirements of said patient.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a non-therapeutic use of whey protein micelles to enhance muscle protein synthesis in a subject. Further aspects are directed to food compositions comprising whey protein micelles to be administered to children, athletes, or elderly persons.
