Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find an improvement in the composition of the intestinal microbiota of children, verified through 16s sequencing, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements;It is expected to find a decrease in the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in children, verified by means of flow cytometer analysis, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements;It is expected to find an increase in the variability of the children's heart rate, verified by means of a frequency meter, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in the pre-and post-intervention measurements

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find an increase in children's neuromuscular strength, verified by means of a dynamometer, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre- and post-intervention measurements;It is expected to find a decrease in body weight and improvement in children's body composition, verified by means of a scale, stadiometer, adipometer, and inextensible tape measure, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in pre-and post-intervention measurements.
