Physical & Cognitive Exercise Are Similarly Effective DNA Protectors & Antioxidant Boosters in Elderly Men & Women

Image
Brain builders and muscle builders are similarly effective DNA protectors in the elderly. As a SuppVersity reader you won't be surprised to hear that Bernhard Franzke and his colleagues from the University of Vienna were able to confirm that resistance training can improve the resistance of human DNA to H2O2 damage in institutionalised elderly. What may be news to you, though, is that very similar effects can be achieved by cognitive training in form of coordinative or cognitive tasks that were performed only two times per week by the 105 institutionalised elderly women and men (aged 65–98 years) the scientists recruited from five different senior residences in the area of Vienna (Franzke. 2014). DNA damage is obviously important, maintaining optimal lean mass levels is important, too Tri- or Multi-Set Training for Body Recomp.? Alternating Squat & Blood Pressure - Productive?

Rodent Study: GMO Soybean Oil is Pro-Inflammatory & Induces DNA Damage! Extra Virgin Olive Oil to the Rescue!

Image
GMO Soybean oil? Better for cars only. I am pretty sure there will be rebuttals to the results of this study... although, it's published in the OpenSource journal Nutrients and was conducted by scientists from Saudi Arabia and the UK who probably don't have the media-connections the scientists who conducted the GMO-corn study back in the day had. Against that background it's unlikely that non- SuppVersity -readers will even hear about the paper El-Kholy et al. published in the June edition of Nutrients (El-Kohly. 2014) -- Well, that is - unless you spread the word, obviously ;-) You better take creatine than ecdysteroids if you want to build muscle Foods, not Macros Count!

The Coffee³ Advantage Equation: 3 x 250mL Coffee / Day + 2x4 Weeks ➫ -1kg Body Fat, Satiety ⇈ (Ghrelin ↘ + 5HT ↗) + Cancer Protective 16% Reduction in DNA Breaks = Health³

Here it is: Scientific evidence caffeine is the among the healthiest addictions known to man. It has been a while since the last official "Coffee Lovin'"-article at the SuppVersity was published. Luckily, scientists all over the world appear to be similarly hooked to the brownish cult drink as millions of coffee concessionaires all around the world - including those who live in Vienna, the city, where the data I am about to present in today's SuppVersity article originated from. If you take a look at the study design, you will see that we are dealing with a five-months study with three four-week washout periods, a crossover and two different types of coffee that was tested on two groups.

Sucralose, Carcinogen or Sweet Relief? Part III: DNA Breaks + Drug & Hormone Interactions | Sucralose, White Death?

Image
Fearmongering fake, or true biohazard. This is the life-or-death- question this last installment of the sucralose trilogy will have to answer. It's time for the third and last installment of the SuppVersity sucralose review trilogy. Looking back at the list of issues in the first installment of this series, it appears as if the one thing that was still left to discuss are the mutagenic, pro-carcinogenic and tissue damaging effects of sucralose and its potentially endocrine disrupting metabolic / thermic byproducts. It goes without saying that the previously discussed and largely rebutted effects on blood glucose management, body weight gain and even the balance of your gut microbiome would be hardly significant, if today's analysis confirms that the use of Splenda© & Co was linked to direct mutagenic, carcinogenic or general toxic effects. Put your hazard suits on, folks! It's obvious that I got carried away by my imagination, when I wrote this subheading, b...

Nutrigenomics - "Let Food be Thy Medicine and Medicine Be Thy Food." An Ancient Truth in Light of Fancy DNA Analyses

Image
Researchers working in the field of nutrigenomics prioritize berries over pills and individuality over "one-size-fits-it-all approaches" - can they also tell us how to "eat away cancer"? "Live longer, live stronger"... rings any bells? Anyone? Of course. That's the motto of Super Human Radio. So anyone, who has been listening to the Science Roundup over the past couple of weeks will  have heard it at least once. Now, while the "stronger" part of Carl Lanore's slogan is still largerly under-researched if you asked me, the nutritional angle, which does not appear in the slogan, but is still a major theme of the show is really taking off, these days. Nutrigenomics , i.e. the science of (a) how what we eat determines how our genes functions - keyword: epigenetics and (b) how our very individual genes determine how we're supposed to eat, is really talking off these days. Reason enough for me to invite you to take a peak at what we alr...

+25% Increased Quadriceps Weight and Profound Increases in Vascularization in Rodents From Real NO Donor! Study Shows: Nitric Oxide Works, At Least in Old Mice

Image
Image 1: This is what NO boosters promise, yet mostly don't deliver. Many people believe that there is some truth to every myth. And in fact, a recently published study rom the Department of Surgery, Biological Sciences and Human Anatomy & Cell Science (quite a mouthful) at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada, shows that even there may be a quantum of truth even in the "arginine" or "nitric oxide" or "pre-workout" or "however else you may want to call it" myth, which says that getting a decent pump will help you build muscle ( Leiter. 2012 ). Now, aside from the fact that the latest generation of those pre-workout supplements boasts of having no arginine in them and relies solely on the stimulant rush the various *amines in them will produce, there is not a single study in which supplementation with X, Y, or Z amount of l-arginine (or other forms of the alpha-amino acid) had produced greater increases in skeletal muscle ...
