Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Menopausal symptoms (hot flashes, sweating, palpitations, dizziness, vaginal dryness, mood swings, etc), measured using the Menopause Rating Scale at baseline, 1.5, 3 and 6 months 2. Calcium excretion, measured using liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry at baseline and 6 months 3. Menopausal-related hormone profile, measured using ELISA at baseline, 1.5, 3 and 6 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Current secondary outcome measures as of 11/05/2021: 1. Dietary evaluation: nutrient intake and adherence to the dietary recommendations measured using a 7-day food record validated nutritional questionnaire at the baseline and at 6 months. In addition, the food frequency questionnaire and 14-point Mediterranean Diet Adherence questionnaire are recorded at baseline. 2. Physical activity is measured using the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity questionnaire at baseline and 6 months 3. Bioavailability, identification and quantification of polyphenols in biological samples is measured using LTQ-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry and HPLC-MS/MS at baseline and at the end of the intervention period 4. Changes in urine metabolites are measured using mass spectrometry and statistical analysis at baseline and at the end of the intervention period Previous secondary outcome measures: 1. Dietary evaluation: nutrient intake and adherence to the dietary recommendations are measured using a 7-day food record validated nutritional questionnaire and a Food Frequency Test at the baseline, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years 2. Physical activity is measured using the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity questionnaire at baseline, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years 3. Bioavailability, identification and quantification of polyphenols in biological samples is measured using LTQ-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry and HPLC-MS/MS at baseline and at the end of the intervention period 4. Changes in urine metabolites are measured using mass spectrometry and statistical analysis at baseline and at the end of the intervention period
