note = {Age and disease related inactivity in older people and inactivity during space flight and in ground-based analogs, such as 6° head-down tilt bed rest (HDBR) are associated with bone loss. This bone loss is mainly induced by decreased mechanical loading. Additionally, oxidative stress resulting from excessive formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or dysfunction of the antioxidant defense systems leads to increased bone resorption processes. Antioxidants like polyphenols, omega-3-fatty acids, vitamins and micronutrients may mitigate the damaging effects of ROS on bone turnover and mediate the scavenging of free radicals.
To get an overview of the current state of research a literature search was conducted, with focus on the effects of nutritive polyphenols on bone metabolism. Based on these results a randomized, controlled, intervention study, in a parallel design was conducted at the Institute for Space Medicine and Physiology, Toulouse, France with 20 healthy male volunteers (age 34 ± 8 y, weight 74 ± 6 kg). We hypothesized that antioxidant supplementation during 60 days of HDBR would positively affect bone markers, bone mineral content (BMC) bone mineral density (BMD) and bone structure parameters compared to non-supplemented controls. The study was divided into two campaigns and each campaign consisted of a 14-d adaptation (BDC), a 60-d HDBR and a 14 d recovery (R) phase. Ten volunteers participated in each campaign. In both campaigns, five volunteers were randomly allocated to the intervention group and five volunteers to the control group. In the intervention group volunteers received an antioxidant cocktail, consisting of 741 mg polyphenols, 2.1 g omega-3-fatty acids, 168 mg vitamin E and 80 µg selenium. In the control group volunteers received no supplement. All volunteers received an individually tailored and strictly controlled diet. BMC, lumbar spine, femur and whole body BMD, BMD of the cortical and trabecular compartments of the distal radius and tibia and cortical and trabecular thickness, as well as serum calcium, parathyroid hormone, osteocalcin, and bone formation markers aminoterminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP) and bone alkaline phosphatase (bAP) were measured at different time points during BDC, HDBR and R, along with urinary calcium and bone resorption markers C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) and N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX).
The antioxidant supplement did not affect BMC, lumbar spine, femr and whole-body BMD, cortical and trabecular BMD or thickness in the radius or tibia, calcium homeostasis (serum calcium and parathyroid hormone); bone resorption markers (urinary CTX, urinary NTX, and serum β-CTX); bone formation markers (bAP, P1NP and osteocalcin); or urinary calcium excretion. In both groups, typical bed rest related changes were observed (increase of bone resorption markers, unchanged bone formation makers, decrease of BMC, BMD and changes in bone structure).
Supplementation of an antioxidant cocktail to a diet matching the DRIs did not affect bone turnover during 60-d HDBR in young, healthy, male subjects.},
