Is Creatine Good for Brain Health amd Physical Performance?

Yes, creatine is indeed good for brain health and physical performance. Even for non-athletes. This week, I had the pleasure of attending a seminar with the eminent Professor Eric Rawson, a leading voice within the exercise and nutrition science field, particularly renowned for his expertise on creatine. Creatine, a compound predominantly found in our muscles …

8 supplements that actually work – Supported by science

Eight supplements that actually improve our health, starting with creatine: The International Society of Sports Nutrition concluded that creatine monohydrate is the most effective nutritional supplement currently available to athletes in terms of increasing high-intensity exercise capacity and lean body mass during training. It’s important to note that it primarily helps with short bursts of …

How do circadian rhythms influence exercise timing, melatonin biology, and peak cognitive performance?

Dr. Satchin Panda is a pioneer in time-restricted eating and an expert on circadian rhythms. Dr. Panda is a professor at the Salk Institute and runs a laboratory with high-impact studies that have a major impact on public health. Circadian rhythms are daily timetables that repeat every day. Almost every organ and cell in the …

What are the benefits of stress, metabolic switching, fasting, and hormesis?

Dr. Mark Matson, an adjunct professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University, is an expert on the understanding of plant phytochemicals and their genetic responses. He explains that organisms evolved in stressful environments and developed mechanisms to cope with stress. For example, they incorporated iron and selenium into proteins to benefit from them, even though …

How does resistance training optimize time efficiency, body composition, and achieve maximum hypertrophy?

Dr. Brad Schoenfeld, a professor at Lehman College in the Bronx, New York, has conducted over 300 studies in the field of exercise and sports nutrition. He believes that combining resistance training with an energy deficit through nutritional restriction is essential for promoting weight loss. Without resistance training, muscle loss may occur during weight loss, …

Vigorous Exercise — From VO2 Max to Time Efficiency of HIIT

Recent research suggests that engaging in more vigorous intensity exercise can lead to greater improvements in VO2 max and eliminate non-response in some individuals. Evidence has shown that roughly 40 percent of people don’t see a measurable improvement in their VO2 max with moderate intensity continuous exercise. However, non-response was eliminated in a group that …

Does Omega-3 Enhance Muscle Protein Synthesis and Mitochondrial Function?

Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to have a significant impact on muscle mass protein synthesis and mitochondrial function. Research indicates that omega-3 fatty acids can enhance muscle protein synthesis, particularly in response to protein consumption. This enhancement is crucial during periods of disuse and becomes increasingly important with aging. As individuals age, their protein …

Vigorous Exercise: Longvity and Brain Benefits

Today we’re diving deep into the science and practicality of incorporating vigorous intensity exercise into our lives. It’s not just about living longer; it’s about enriching the quality of life at essentially every stage and also influencing brain function. During vigorous exercise, our muscles essentially become mini biochemical labs synthesizing compounds like lactate and myokines. …
