Exercise, diet and brain training-based cocktail intervention for improving physical and cognitive functions in the elderly
Description: We aim to investigate the hitherto unknown changes in physical and cognitive functions in the elderly from exposure to exercise, diet and brain training-based cocktail intervention, and also the concomitant alterations in plasma free amino acids and gut microbiota. The findings should help to establish a novel non-pharmalogical intervention aimed at preventing or improving aging-associated physical frailty and cognitive impairments, and might be crucial for countries like Japan with a super-aging society.
