Analysis of Bioparametric Measures for Correlating Daily Habits and Reducing Blood Pressure

Análisis de Medidas bioparamétricas Para Correlacionar Los hábitos Diarios y Reducir la tensión Arterial

To study the effects of the use of a mobile application plus recommendations based on a Mediterranean diet on the intake of micronutrients from natural sources (not drugs) on health indicators, cardiovascular parameters (blood pressure...), physical condition and body composition in a Spanish adult population.

In the Valencian Community, 93% of deaths appear to be related to (non-communicable) diseases such as: obesity, hypertension and diabetes. In 2013, cardiovascular diseases were the leading cause of death in women (34.4%) and the second in men (28.0%). There is a forecast that overweight and obesity will reach levels of 89% and 85% in men and women, respectively, by 2030. This will result in an increase in the obesity-related prevalence of coronary heart disease by 97%. The promotion of research on arterial hypertension and how it could be reduced is one of the basic pillars in decreasing the prevalence and incidence in the Spanish population. Research should anticipate and develop treatments and vaccines that prevent new scenarios of widespread infection. Therefore, the main objective is to study the effects of the use of a mobile application plus recommendations based on a Mediterranean diet on the intake of micronutrients from natural sources (not drugs) on health indicators, cardiovascular parameters (blood pressure...), physical condition and body composition in the adult Spanish population.

Recommendations on healthy eating habits based on the Mediterranean diet and moderate physical activity. Specific micronutrient intake focused on improving cardiovascular parameters and body composition.

Recommendations on healthy eating habits based on the Mediterranean diet and moderate physical activity through an application based on machine learning. Intake of specific micronutrients focused on improving cardiovascular parameters and body composition.

Use of a mobile application based on machine learning with the aim of improving health and body composition parameters.

Specific diet program and moderate physical activity, all guided and mediated by a mobile application. As well as the recording and monitoring of periodic evaluations of health indicators.

The evaluation of the physical condition will be carried out by means of the mile test, in which the subjects have to cover this distance walking, and in the shortest possible time.

Assessment of body composition using the TANITA (Tokyo, Japan) validated bioimpedance scale to obtain the results of fat mass, fat-free mass and visceral mass.

The weight of the subjects will be obtained using the TANITA (Tokyo, Japan). From the body mass and height data, the BMI (kg/m2) will be obtained.

The height of the subjects will be measured with the SECA 123 stadiometer (Hamburg, Germany). From the body mass and height data, the BMI (kg/m2) will be obtained.

The kinanthropometric assessment will be carried out using the methodology proposed for the restricted profile by the International Society for the Development of Kineanthropometry (ISAK). The material used to measure skinfolds will be a plicometer.

The kinanthropometric assessment will be carried out using the methodology proposed for the restricted profile by the International Society for the Development of Kineanthropometry (ISAK). The material used to measure perimeters will be a tape.

The kinanthropometric assessment will be carried out using the methodology proposed for the restricted profile by the International Society for the Development of Kineanthropometry (ISAK). The material used to measure diameters will be a pachymeter.
