Arm Description

Active carrier 1: biscuit providing 250 mg hesperidin per piece(6g)

Active carrier 2: liquid skim milk providing 250 mg hesperidin/serve (200 ml) and containing around 300 mg calcium/serving

Placebo carrier 1: biscuit with the same nutrient composition and appearance as the active biscuit carrier but minus hesperidin

Placebo carrier 2: liquid skim milk with the same nutrient composition and appearance as the active milk carrier but minus hesperidin

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage change from baseline for bone formation (serum P1NP & osteocalcin) and bone resorption (urinary NTX & serum CTX) markers

Secondary Outcome Measures

Full blood biochemistry analyses including lipid profile
Percentage change from baseline for osteoarthritis markers (CTX2 and others)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the effects of hesperidin on biochemical markers of bone in post-menopausal women. The secondary objectives are: To investigate changes in bone formation and bone resorption markers in response to hesperidin intake To compare the efficacy of hesperidin in a milk versus biscuit To collect safety information of hesperidin consumption in a human trial
