Feasibility of Adding a Plant-Based Protein Pudding to the Diet of Older Adults Who Attend a Medically Managed Fitness Facility (NCT07142694)

Evaluation of a Plant-based Protein Pudding In Older Adults Attending a Medically Managed Fitness Facility

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: Seven Oaks Hospital Chronic Disease Innovation Centre

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this a 12-week randomized controlled parallel arm feasibility trial is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of incorporating a plant-based protein pudding into the diets of older adults who attend a medically managed fitness facility. The primary participant population includes older adults, aged 60 years and above, who are generally healthy and engaged in structured fitness programs. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is a plant-based protein pudding acceptable and well-tolerated by older adults? Does regular consumption of the pudding support muscle health and overall well-being in this population? Participants will: Consume a plant-based protein pudding as one arm daily for 7 days per week (experimental) and the other will continue their current lifestyle (control). The experimental group will complete surveys or questionnaires to assess acceptability, taste, and ease of integration into daily meals. Undergo basic physical or health assessments (e.g., muscle function or strength evaluations) to evaluate potential effects.
