Calculated Energy Requirements ±15% & More Off of True Resting Energy Expenditure | Genotyping May Help Maintain Muscle While Dieting -- ISSN'15 Research Review Issue #5

Image
In view of the inaccuracy of the standard equations that are used to calculate our energy requirements we are approaching the age of the "misquantified self". If I had to find a common theme in the studies discussed in this installment of the ISSN'15 Research Overview , I guess it would be "get lean and stay lean" . If you asked for a common bottom line, it would be: It's complicated . Complicated , because even though our genes appear to have a determining rule in what's the best diet for us, the "calories in vs. calories out" equation is eventually going to determine whether you are losing or gaining weight. That's problematic, not just because many of us have lost their inborn ability to match their energy intake to their individual requirements. It's also problematic in view of the increasing number of people who rely on the numbers of apps and fitness-trackers which are just as unreliable as the standard equations that were f...

MSM Cures Exercise Related Joint & Muscle Pain, But May Effect Immunity | Arginine Silicate Delivers, but Practically Relevant Data is Still Missing | ISSN Research Review '15 #5

Exercise induced joint and muscle pain - Can a few grams MSM help? In this installment of the SuppVersity ISSN '15 Research Re- or rather Overview I couldn't really find a common theme. With two studies on MSM and one on arginine silicate you could probably best call it the "less researched supplement review". Many people probably don't even know that MSM stands for "methylsulfonylmethane" and the notion that one could benefit from inositol-stabilized arginine silicate was - I openly admit that - complete news to me, too.

Ketogenic Diet Research: Total Body Weight and Fat Gain, but not Muscle Protein Synthesis After Exercise is Impaired in Rodents on Ketogenic Diet | ISSN Research Review '15 #4

Image
I don't know what exactly was in the ketogenic rodent chow that was used in the study at hand, but I doubt it were transfat laden sausages ;-) Welcome to the fourth issue of the SuppVersity  ISSN '15 Research Review ... as you will notice I am trying to make the introductions shorter and shorter with each installment of this series. So, let's not waste time and dig right into the latest research on ketogenic diets. Yes, you heard me right. There is  new research on ketogenic diets that does not focus on weight loss, the obese and/or cancer. Rather than that, the studies discussed in this installment of the ISSN '15 Research Review deal with the effects of ketogenic diets on the skeletal muscle anabolic response to resistance exercise, as well as its effects on weight gain in an ad-libitum diet scenario.

3.8 vs. 2.3 g/kg Protein + Exercise to Improve Body Comp. | Digestive Enzymes to Pimp Vegan Proteins | High Protein vs. MUFA Meals for GLP1 | ISSN Research Review '15 #3

"If some is good, more is better!" Unfortunately, this simple maxime does rarely apply when it comes to the physiological response to certain foods and/or supplements. For protein, however, it appears as if the relation holds - at least as long as protein does not become the only energy source in your diet. I guess by now I can simply skip the lengthy introduction telling you about how I didn't want to cherry pick only three out of more than twenty newsworthy studies that were presented at the  Twelfth International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) Conference and Expo in 2015, when I started writing this series right ( click here if you have missed the previous articles)? Well, that's good because it leaves more room for a brief preview of the studies I am about to discuss in today's third serving of the SuppVersity ISSN Research Review 2015  - studies that are all related (in one way or another) to increased protein intake. Either in overweight or obese...
