Abstract: Methods and compositions for treating modulating and/or ameliorating non-light-induced, particularly non-UV-induced, skin aging in a human, for reducing the basal MMP-10 expression in unirradiated cells of an organism and/or reducing the basal MMP-1 RNA transcription and protein translation in unirradiated cells of an organism, and/or for modulating the effects of UVA-induced RNA transcription and polypeptide translation of a matrix metalloprotease, which include administering an effective amount of ?-carotene, a precursor of ?-carotene, a salt of ?-carotene, or a combination of two or more thereof to an organism, particularly a mammal, more particularly a human, in need thereof.

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 invention relates to the use of hydroxytyrosol for inducing or enhancing cartilage repair or cartilage regeneration. Furthermore, the invention relates to nutraceutical and pharmaceutical compositions comprising hydroxytyrosol for regeneration and repair of cartilage injuries in joints, in particular of traumatic cartilage injuries.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vitamin, mineral and enzyme premix for a fortified food blend comprising an alpha-amylase and a glucoamylase to increase energy content, reduce viscosity, and improve taste of a porridge prepared from said fortified food blend. Furthermore, the invention relates to a high energy fortified food blend comprising a vitamin, mineral and enzyme premix from which a high energy, low viscosity and tasty porridge can be prepared. It also relates to a porridge prepared form the fortified food blend according to the present invention.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of trigonelline compounds to increase muscle weight during periods of activity or to inhibit muscle loss during periods of inactivity.

Abstract: This invention is related to the use of hydroxytyrosol (“HT”), or an olive juice extract containing hydroxytyrosol as an agent to improve muscle differentiation and thus improve or maintain the body's adaptation to exercise. It is also related to the use of hydroxytyrosol (“HT”), or an olive juice extract containing hydroxytyrosol as an agent to improve calcium signaling and to improve skeletal muscle contraction and relaxation. It also relates to pharmaceutical and nutraceutical compositions useful for conditions characterized by altered muscle differentiation especially under inflammatory conditions, such as delayed onset muscle soreness subsequent to strenuous exercise or sarcopenia.
