Osteoporosis is the imbalance of bone growth and breakdown, and it is quite common in America. According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation: Approximately 10 million Americans have osteoporosis and another 44 million have low bone density, placing them at increased risk. This means that half of all adults aged 50 and older are at risk of breaking a bone and should be concerned about bone health.”Osteoporosis can be unassuming as you neglect to sense your bones becoming progressively weaker; however, you may notice a loss in height or a greater curvature in your spine. Bone loss in post-menopausal women is mainly due to estrogen deficiency which is a key regulator in bone growth and loss. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have shown to stimulate stem cells to form new cartilage and bone tissue. This naturally derived complex (i.e., BMPs) may lead to reduced inflammation, decreased stiffness, increased mobility, stronger cartilage, and improved joint integrity.
The purpose of this study is to understand the impact and benefits of Ostinol™, a naturally occurring supplement containing BMPs, above and beyond a vitamin D/calcium/magnesium/vitamin C treatment, on bone health in post-menopausal women.
The Center for Applied Health Sciences is looking for 70 post-menopausal women (up to the age of 70) to complete the study. Qualified participants will receive up to $1,200 in compensation for their time and successful completion of the study.
Keeping the brain sharp and at its best is at the utmost importance to any individual. The most important changes in cognition with normal aging are declines in performance on cognitive tasks that require one to quickly process or transform information to make a decision, including measures of speed of processing, working memory, and executive cognitive function. Through the use of AmaTea Guayusa extract and Lions mane, we hope to see just that thing improve.
From Applied Food Sciences (AFS):
Our patented guayusa extracts highlight the naturally occurring antioxidants and caffeine from guayusa for a cognitive, uplifting energy experience, unlike any other caffeinated ingredient. Guayusa, pronounced “gwhy-you-sah,” is a functional herb that grows only in the upper Amazon basin of Ecuador and Peru.
Lions' mane extract is known to improve promote mental clarity, focus and memory. It also supports a balanced mood, promotes nervous system health, and supports a balanced immune response.
With this randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial, we hope to determine differences in cognitive responses following oral supplementation of AmaTea Guayusa extract, Lions’ mane and placebo.
The Center for Applied Health Sciences is looking for healthy men and women (18-50yr) to complete the study. Qualified participants will receive up to $400 in compensation for their time and successful completion of the study!
Deterioration of cartilage and/or bone typically results in inflammation and joint pain. Over time, this can lead to joint stiffness and poor joint mobility. Several dietary supplements claim to help reduce the signs and symptoms of joint pain. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have shown to stimulate cartilage and bone growth through osteoinductive properties. This naturally derived complex (i.e.., BMPs) may help reduce inflammation, decrease stiffness, increase mobility, and/or help preserve the joint architecture as we age or recover from an injury.
The purpose of this study is to understand the impact and potential benefits of Ostinol™, a naturally occurring osteoinductive supplement containing BMPs on joint health, comfort, and function in people with mild to moderate pain, stiffness, and/or inflammation in hip and/or knee joints.
The Center for Applied Health Sciences is looking for 50 men and women (18-65yr) to complete the study. Qualified participants will receive up to $750 in compensation for their time and successful completion of the study.
Prebiotics are special plant fibers that help healthy bacteria grow in your gut. This makes your digestive system work better. In contrast to PRObiotics (which contain live organisms, usually specific strains of bacteria that directly add to the population of healthy microbes in your gut), PREbiotics are basically fiber(s) your body can’t digest. After they are ingested, prebiotics travel to your lower digestive tract, where they act like fertilizer to help the healthy bacteria grow.
Previous research studies suggests that certain prebiotics may have health benefits including improvements in blood lipids (cholesterol levels), immune function, and self-reported vitality and happiness. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of oral supplementation with PRENEXOS™, the only organically farmed and U.S.-produced, non-GMO, prebiotic on the market on improving gastrointestinal symptoms, blood glucose, and cholesterol levels.
The Center for Applied Health Sciences is looking for men and women (25-65 yr) to complete the study. Qualified participants will receive up to $400 in compensation for their time and successful completion of the study.
Aging is inevitable and associated with many concomitant conditions and decline in functional capacity (i.e., cardiovascular, cardiorespiratory, metabolic, and neurodegenerative challenges). Through aging a loss of muscle mass disrupts our metabolism and leads to an energy imbalance. Part of the reduction in metabolism stems from a loss of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) which helps our cells transfer and produce energy via adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Hence, NAD is essential to various biological processes such as metabolism, DNA repair, and gene expression. Specifically, NAD plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of neural cells and may help improve glucose metabolism, improve muscle, and improve the cellular machinery used to produce energy.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a dietary supplement for healthy aging on standard blood chemistries and subjective markers of health and wellness.
The Center for Applied Health Sciences is looking for 40 men and women (50-75 yr) to complete the study. Qualified participants will receive up to $400 in compensation for their time and successful completion of the study.
