The relationship between the effect of matured hop extract and physical activity on reducing body fat: re-analysis of data from a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel group study

摘要

BackgroundWe recently reported that successive ingestion of matured hop extract (MHE), produced by oxidation of hops, results in a reduction of body fat in healthy overweight participants. A combined effect of MHE and physical activity on body fat has not been investigated. Thus, we re-analyzed data from the previous study to explore the relationship between the effect of MHE and walking as an index of physical activity.
