Exercise Pain & Recovery

+66 more items in Exercise Pain & Recovery

Many dietary supplements are marketed to athletes for purposes that extend beyond the classic ergogenic aid definitions. Examples include supplements that help to reduce exercise-induced pain & inflammation and improve recovery. During and especially after athletic activity, the body has a number of responses in order to help it recover and adapt. Many of these responses involve some level of local inflammation and muscle soreness that peaks within 24 to 48 hours after the exercise, usually referred to collectively as delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). These processes may contribute to various functional deficits such as reduced strength and/or range of motion. ( Davis 2007 ) The ingredients selected for this protocol may help improve symptoms of exercise-related pain and aid in recovery. For example, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) may provide extra quantities of certain amino acids that may help to reduce markers of exercise-related damage. ( Khemtong 2021 ) Collagen acts to provide strength and elasticity to connective tissues. ( Dressler 2018 ) Curcumin reduces many inflammatory markers and may shorten recovery time from exercise. ( Fang 2020 )( Suhett 2021 ) Magnesium may reduce inflammation and cortisol levels and improve immunological function, all aiding in recovery. Finally, omega-3 fatty acids have effects on cyclooxygenase-2 expression and the metabolism of arachidonic acid. ( Ochi 2018 )

Exercise Performance & Body Composition

Many dietary supplements have been popularly marketed to improve sports performance; however, only a few key ingredients have strong evidence to support these claims. You should be aware that based on an ingredient’s mechanism of action, a performance-enhancing effect may be observed for a certain type of exercise (e.g., aerobic), but these effects may not necessarily translate to another form (e.g., anaerobic). The ingredients included in this protocol may be beneficial for improved exercise performance and body composition outcomes. For example, beta-alanine helps to buffer acid buildup, helping to prevent fatigue. ( Ojeda 2020 ) Caffeine acts as a nervous system stimulant, reducing inhibition and ratings of perceived exertion. ( Doherty 2005 ) Creatine helps to provide additional short-duration energy reserves and muscle hydration. ( Kreider 2017 ) HMB may help to stimulate lipolysis, and in certain populations, may help to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. ( Kerksick 2018 ) Finally, whey protein may help consumers with satiety, ensure adequate protein intake, and help preserve lean muscle mass under energy restriction. ( Wirunsawanya 2018 ) Some can't tolerate whey (dairy) so alternate proteins have been added to the protocol as substitutions.

High cholesterol is one of the key markers when evaluating risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and related problems. According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), in 2015-2016, 12.5% of adults had high total cholesterol, with men having a higher rate of prevalence. In conjunction, 18% of adults had low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. ( 14 ) Achieving a healthy cholesterol serum level has a valuable impact on decreasing risk for these events, and every bit helps. A decrease of 1 mmol/L in total cholesterol correlates with lower ischemic heart disease mortality. ( 15 ) Problems with blood pressure amplify the risks found with dyslipidemia, and were found to proportionally impact risk reduction when lowering cholesterol. ( 15 ) Based on current research findings presented below, the ingredients in this protocol have demonstrated efficacy in improving cholesterol profile and potentially cardiovascular outcomes.
