Objective To report sex- and age-specific physical fitness levels in European adolescents. Methods A sample of 3428 adolescents (1845 girls) aged 12.5–17.49 years from 10 cities Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece (an inland city an island city), Hungary, Italy, Spain Sweden was assessed the Healthy Lifestyle Europe by Nutrition Adolescence study between 2006 2008. The authors muscular fitness, speed/agility, flexibility cardiorespiratory using nine different tests: handgrip, bent arm...
A large proportion of European children, adults and older do not engage in sufficient physical activity (PA). Understanding individual contextual factors associated with PA behaviours is essential for the identification implementation effective preventative environments, policies, programmes that can promote an active lifestyle across life course potentially improve health. The current paper intends to provide 1) a multi-disciplinary, Pan-European view key determinants 2) proposal how these...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the overall diet quality effects, mainly on antioxidant nutritional status and some cytokines related cellular immune response as well oxidative stress in a healthy Italian population group. An observational conducted 131 free-living subjects. Dietary intake assessed by dietary diary. Standardised procedures were used make anthropometric measurements. On blood samples (serum, plasma whole blood) evaluated: vitamin A, E, carotenoids, C, uric acid, SH...
The main objective of this research was to determine whether a commercial orange juice rich in anthocyanins could have an effect on body weight and clinical parameters related obesity including antioxidant status, lipid profile, metabolic inflammatory biomarkers. 11 women with average BMI 34.4 ± 4.8 kg/m2 were enrolled pilot study. Over period 12 weeks they received 500 mL daily dose into two doses (250 mL) red (COJ). biochemical measured at baseline the end study (12 weeks). One month later...

The present study investigated the association between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and dietary intake in European adolescents. comprised 1492 adolescents (770 females) from eight cities participating HELENA (Healthy Lifestyle Europe by Nutrition Adolescence) study. CRF was assessed 20 m shuttle run test. Adolescents were grouped into low high levels according to FITNESSGRAM Standards.
