“…In addition, modifications in food nutritional intake that alter body composition could subsequently positively influence fatigue perception, probably through the underlying mechanisms of suppressing inflammatory response, enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis, and repairing mitochondrial dysfunction (Azzolino et al, 2020). Therefore, an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative nutritional supplementation could help individuals suffering from fatigue to become more competent in their daily activities, return to work, build up interpersonal relationships, and manage regular exercise (Greenhouse-Tucknott et al, 2020; Maggini et al, 2021).…”

Dietary astaxanthin supplementation has been demonstrated to have many beneficial and health-promoting effects. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the effect of astaxanthin supplementation on fatigue, cognition, and exercise efficiency. A total of 11 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 346 healthy participants were included. The random effects model and pooled standardized mean difference (SMDs) were used according to Hedge’s g for the meta-analysis, and a meta-regression was also conducted. The results of the two existing studies showed a positive trend for astaxanthin in subjective fatigue relief. The effects of astaxanthin supplementation for 8–12 weeks on cognitive accuracy were marginally significant (SMD: .12; 95% CI: −.02–.26) and on reaction time was not significant (SMD: −.08; 95% CI: −.26 to .10). Remarkably, astaxanthin supplementation combined with regular training could enhance the fat oxidation (SMD: 2.56; 95% CI: 1.24–3.89), and significantly improve the physical performance (SMD: .62; 95% CI: .17–1.06). The subgroup analysis further showed significantly greater benefits when performing the aerobic exercises performance (SMD: .45; 95% CI: .13–.76), when the dose was ≥ 20 mg (SMD: .37; 95% CI: .11–.63), and when the supplementation duration was > 12 weeks (SMD: .66; 95% CI: .13–.63). We conclude that astaxanthin supplementation could significantly enhance aerobic exercise efficiency, especially at higher doses and for longer durations. Further studies based on large sample sizes are imperatively warranted.

More than two billion people suffer from micronutrient deficiencies (MiNDs) globally, with nearly half living in India. The current risk of ‘hidden hunger’ is severe in India due to serious deficiency risks across an array of essential micronutrients. A nationwide advisory board meeting attended by more than 20 Indian health care professionals (HCPs) was conducted to determine their clinical viewpoint on MiND. An in-depth search of PubMed studies emphasizing various aspects of MiND relevant to the Indian scenario was performed and presented to eminent HCPs from across India who then shared their opinions and perspectives based on their clinical experiences associated with MiND.
