About this study

Official title: Zhejiang Nutrition and Health Study: Nutrition and Lifespan Study (NuLife Study)

This project aims to explore the relationship between healthy lifespan and nutrition through a 10-year longitudinal study in Zhejiang Province. The cohort will include individuals in a wide range of age groups. The demographic, diet, lifestyle information, health status, and corresponding bio-samples will be collected carefully. It will give a deeper insight to the relation between nutrition and healthy aging and longevity. Ultimately, this research will contribute to evidence-based nutrition interventions to improve health outcomes and enhance quality of life.

Read the detailed description

This project aims to elucidate the relationship between healthy lifespan and nutrition through the establishment of a large-scale cohort of participants and longitudinal follow-ups spanning around 10 years in Zhejiang Province. The cohort will comprise individuals in a wide range of age groups starting at 6 years old. The participants will provide demographic information, anthropometry measurements, detailed diet, lifestyle data and health status, including 3-day dietary records and long-term food intake frequency recalls. Integrated with previous information, diverse bio-samples will also be collected to establish a multi-dimensional biobank. It will give a deeper insight to the relation between nutrition and healthy aging and longevity. Ultimately, this research will contribute to the development of evidence-based nutrition designed to improve health outcomes and enhance the quality of life for individuals of all ages.

    Measured: up to 10 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Changes in fasting blood glucose

    Fasting glucose will be examined in mmol/L.

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  2. Changes in fasting blood HbA1c

    Fasting blood HbA1c will be examined in %

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  3. Changes in fasting lipid metabolism

    Triglyceride, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol will be examined in mmol/L.

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  4. Changes in fasting blood highly sensitive C-reactive protein (CRP)

    CRP will be examined in mg/L.

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  5. Changes in body mass index

    Body mass index (BMI) will be calculated in kg/m^2

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  6. Changes in blood pressure

    Blood pressure, including systolic and diastolic blood pressure, will be measured in mmHg

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years

  7. Changes in gut microbiome profiling

    16S rRNA and/or shotgun metagenomic sequencing will be performed in stool samples.

    Measured: Every other year, up to 10 years
