This video explores a scientific study on how Cordyceps militaris, a type of mushroom extract, might benefit long-distance runners. The researchers found that runners who took this extract for 16 weeks showed signs of improved iron levels and reduced muscle damage compared to those who took a placebo. This suggests Cordyceps militaris could be helpful for runners during pre-season training by potentially preventing anemia and muscle injury. #CordycepsMilitaris #AnemiaInAthletes #SportsScience Nakamura, A., Shinozaki, E., Suzuki, Y., Santa, K., Kumazawa, Y., Kobayashi, F., Nagaoka, I., & Koikawa, N.

This research examined the potential of tomato juice to combat bacterial infections. The study found that tomato juice effectively eliminated Salmonella Typhi, the cause of typhoid fever, and uropathogenic E. coli, a bacterium associated with urinary tract infections, within 24 hours. The authors suggest these antimicrobial properties stem from naturally occurring peptides in tomatoes. These findings raise the possibility that incorporating tomato juice into one's diet could be a valuable tool for managing certain bacterial infections. #tomato #typhoid #UTI Kwon RS, Lee GY, Lee S, Song J.2024.Antimicrobial properties of tomato juice and peptides against typhoidal Salmonella.

Exciting new research suggests urolithin A, a natural compound found in pomegranates, may offer benefits for Alzheimer's disease. In mouse models, urolithin A improved memory and learning, while also reducing hallmarks of Alzheimer's like amyloid beta plaques. This effect appears linked to its ability to promote mitophagy, the removal of damaged mitochondria in brain cells. While human trials are needed, these findings highlight the potential of dietary components for neurodegenerative diseases. #UrolithinA #Mitophagy #Alzheimers Hou Y, Chu X, Park J-H, et al.

This research examined the effectiveness and safety of Red Yeast Rice Extract (RYR) for lowering cholesterol. They analyzed data from multiple studies and found that RYR extract significantly reduced total and LDL cholesterol levels, which are the "bad" cholesterols. The reductions were comparable to low-dose statins, medications commonly used for cholesterol control. Importantly, there was no increased risk of serious side effects. While more research is needed, this suggests RYR extract may be a safe and effective option for managing cholesterol levels. #cholesterol #redyeastrice #monacolin Trogkanis, E., Karalexi, M.

A new study from the University of Cincinnati suggests strawberries might be more than just a delicious treat. Researchers gave overweight middle-aged adults a daily powder supplement with the equivalent of one cup of strawberries. After 12 weeks, those on the strawberry powder showed improvements in memory and reduced symptoms of depression. Scientists believe this might be due to the anti-inflammatory properties of anthocyanins, a type of antioxidant found in strawberries. This is exciting preliminary research, but further studies with larger groups and longer durations are needed to confirm these findings. #Strawberry #BrainHealth #MemoryBoost Krikorian, R., Shidler, M.

This study investigated a novel strategy to improve deadlift performance: carbohydrate mouth rinsing (CMR). Participants performed Romanian deadlifts after either CMR with a maltodextrin solution or a placebo rinse. Researchers observed significant improvements in eccentric peak power, average force, peak speed, and total work during CMR trials. This suggests CMR might enhance motor performance through brain stimulation triggered by carbohydrate receptors in the mouth. The video will delve deeper into the study's design, explore potential mechanisms, and discuss the implications for resistance training routines. #CarbohydrateMouthRinse #DeadliftPerformance #ResistanceTraining Yang, T., Shiu, Y., Chen, C., Yu, S., Hsu, Y., & Chiu, C.

A giant study from Monash University followed over 86,000 people to see how light exposure impacted their mental health. Participants shared their sleep habits, how much light they saw during the day and night, and any mental health diagnoses they had. The big finding? People exposed to more light at night seemed more likely to experience depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. But that's not all! People who got plenty of daytime sunshine were less likely to struggle with these conditions. This suggests a simple yet powerful way to support your mental well-being: embrace the sunshine during the day and dim the lights at night. #LightExposureStudy #DaylightMentalHealth #NightLightRisk Low daytime light and bright night-time light are associated with psychiatric disorders: an objective light study in greater than 85,000 UK Biobank participants Angus C.

Researchers are looking at ways to help hair growth, and a new study shows promise with cinnamon! They found a tiny molecule in cinnamon called cinnamic acid that can increase hair growth by helping the body use oxytocin, a hormone important for hair health. In lab tests, cinnamic acid showed results almost as good as oxytocin itself, but with the advantage of being small enough to be absorbed by the scalp.

A small study followed three women with lupus and Sjögren's syndrome who saw a dramatic improvement in symptoms after switching to a specific diet. This diet focused on raw fruits and vegetables, especially cruciferous vegetables, and included omega-3 fatty acids from sources like flax seeds. All three women reported near-complete symptom remission within a month and some have remained symptom-free for over six years without medication. While more research is needed, these results suggest this dietary approach may be helpful for managing autoimmune diseases. #LupusTreatment #AutoimmuneDiet #FoodAsMedicine Goldner, B., & Staffier, K.

(ABSTRACT) With over 6 million coronavirus pandemic deaths, the African continent reported the lowest death rate despite having a high disease burden. The African community’s resilience to the pandemic has been attributed to climate and weather conditions, herd immunity, repeated exposure to infectious organisms that help stimulate the immune system, and a disproportionately large youth population. In addition, functional foods, herbal remedies, and dietary supplements contain micronutrients and bioactive compounds that can help boost the immune system. #africa #herbs #immunesystem Frazzoli C, Grasso G, Husaini DC, Ajibo DN, Orish FC, Orisakwe OE.
