Female Athletes at Risk for Bone Loss

Another study confirms that female athletes involved in significant aerobic exercise, such as running and swimming, have lower bone density. While the researchers seem puzzled by their findings, this is not hard to understand.

Branched-Chain Amino Acids Extend Lifespan

A groundbreaking study has demonstrated that feeding middle-aged male mice branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) extended their lifespan by 12% while rejuvenating the cellular engines in their heart and muscles.

Whey Protein Activates Muscle Repair Following Exercise

Researchers have demonstrated that 25 grams of whey protein following resistance exercise maximally stimulates the gene signaling system that enhances muscle rejuvenation. They demonstrated in humans that whey protein activates the exact same gene signaling system (mTOR) that is responsible for the longevity benefits of branched-chain amino acids recently demonstrated in mice (Branched-Chain Amino Acids Extend Lifespan in Mice).
