Summary

The goal of this Clinical Trial is to analyze effect of Ophiochepalus striatus extract on serum IGF-1 and IL-6 levels in elderly patients with sarcopenia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can giving Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks increase IGF-1 levels in elderly people with sarcopenia? 2. Can administration of 2x5 grams dose of Ophiocephalus striatus extract for 2 weeks reduce IL-6 levels in elderly with sarcopenia? 3. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks reduce the SARC-F score in elderly people with sarcopenia? 4. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks increase muscle mass in elderly people with sarcopenia? 5. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks increase muscle strength in elderly people with sarcopenia? 6. Can administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks improve physical performance in elderly with sarcopenia? Participants will: 1. Consume Ophiochepalus striatus extract 2x5 grams a day. 2. Checked blood before and after the intervention. 3. Measured muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance before and after the intervention.
