Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), a Mediterranean Diet Component, in the Management of Muscle Mass and Function Preservation
2022 Aug 30 Nutrients Salucci S, Bartoletti-Stella A, Bavelloni A, Aramini B, Blalock WL, Fabbri F, et al.
The review suggests that due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties, EVOO supplementation has the potential to delay/prevent the loss of muscle mass and function associated with sarcopenia in aging individuals, emphasizing the need for further research to assess its effectiveness in dietary supplementation.

Bee products, rich in antioxidants and with versatile pharmacological activities, have shown varying positive effects on muscle mass, strength, and function in laboratory animals and limited human studies. Potential mechanisms include reducing inflammation and oxidative damage, promoting metabolic regulation, enhancing satellite stem cell responsiveness, improving muscular blood supply, inhibiting catabolic genes, and promoting peripheral neuronal regeneration.

2020 The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine The Effects of Essential Oil on Salivary Oxytocin Concentration in Postmenopausal Women Tarumi W, Shinohara K
Randomised Controlled Trial Chamomile Clary Sage Jasmine
In this study, fifteen postmenopausal women were subjected to the effects of ten different essential oils one at a time. The oils exposed to included rose otto, sweet orange, lavender, neroli, frankincense, jasmine absolute, ylang ylang, roman chamomile, clary sage, and Indian sandalwood. Initially, they were exposed to a control for 20 minutes, followed by exposure to an essential oil for 20 minutes. Each woman was exposed to only a single kind of essential oil per day. Saliva was collected immediately before and after both control exposure and essential oil exposure. The oxytocin levels in the saliva were then measured.
The findings revealed an increase in salivary oxytocin concentrations following exposure to six out of the ten essential oils. Specifically, lavender, neroli, jasmine absolute, roman chamomile, clary sage, and Indian sandalwood were associated with a significant increase in salivary oxytocin when compared to the control odor. This study implies that olfaction stimulation with the listed essential oils might help counter the reduction of muscle mass and function caused by aging in women.
Review Articles
Review articles summarise and critically evaluate the current state of research on a specific topic or field by synthesising multiple primary research studies.
