A lifestyle makeover for better sleep and a healthier body in older women?
NCT ID NCT07740902
First seen Aug 03, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week lifestyle program—combining personalized nutrition advice, regular psychological support, and a walking routine—can improve sleep quality and body composition in overweight or obese women aged 60 and older. Participants will be assessed at the start and end of the program to measure changes in sleep, weight, and overall well-being. The goal is to see if this holistic approach can offer a simple, non-drug strategy to enhance health in later years.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- A 12-week multimodal lifestyle intervention combining individualized nutrition counseling, psychological support, and a walking program of at least 150 minutes per week.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could offer a practical, drug-free way to improve sleep quality and body composition in older women, potentially reducing health risks associated with obesity and poor sleep.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study with no control group, so results may not be definitive. The benefits could vary widely among individuals, and adherence to the program may be challenging for some.
