Anthropometric parameters
CREST
Anthropometric parameters were collected and analyzed at baseline time (T0) and T90 and T180 post-supplementation. The volunteers were weighed using the Body Composition Scale 2 (Xiaomi Mi, Beijing, China). The hip (cm), iliac crest (cm), waist (cm), and neck (cm) circumferences and height (cm) were measured using a plastic tape measurer. BMI was calculated by dividing weight (kg) by the square of height (m).
