Summary

This study aims to examine whether Greek yogurt (GY) consumption will lead to beneficial changes in bone metabolism and inflammation, in senior adults, male and female, when combined with regular exercise (senior fit classes; GYEX) and without exercise (GYNE). It is hypothesized that compared to a control group (senior fit classes, no GY; NYEX), an 8-week GY consumption intervention in senior adults with and without exercise will lead to positive effects on body composition, and markers of bone metabolism and inflammation such that the anabolic and anti-inflammatory markers of these physiological processes will increase more than any training-induced catabolic and pro-inflammatory markers (i.e., more than measures observed in the NYNE group).

Conditions

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Greek yogurt

Whole food dairy products, such as Greek yogurt (GY), offer a high quality, nutrient-dense snack, high in bone-supporting ingredients, including protein, calcium, and phosphorus. These nutrients are crucial to the structural integrity and strength of bone, i.e., the collagen and hydroxyapatite matrices.
