Are you young and healthy? Then, high-dose NSAIDs may ruin your quad-gainz. If you browse the SuppVersity   Archive , you will find that NSAIDs, i.e. Non-Steroid(=not based on cortisone)-Anti-inflammatory-Drugs like aspirin, celecoxib, diclofenac, ibuprofen, or indomethacin, are not as bad as the bros in the locker-room may have told you. In fact, a relatively recent study by Mackey et al. (2016) observed  beneficial effects on muscle repair in young men . And an even more positive image of NSAIDs emerges if you read Trappe et al.'s 2016 study in which they observed significant increases in muscle gains in older trainees.

No, I still do not recommend the chronic (ab-)use of NSAIDs, bro. No, this is not the first study about the effects of NSAIDs on muscle gains I discuss here at  www.suppversity.com , but it is certainly one of the more interesting ones. The study which is about to be published in the FASEB Journal was designed to investigate the role of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in human skeletal muscle regeneration. As you may remember, previous studies have yielded conflicting evidence with respect to the ability of NSAID to accelerate muscle healing and thus accelerater and ultimately shorten the adaptational process.

Image 1 (Coloribus): Unquestionably a great add, but the (Ex-)Marlboro man would be better off with a piece of liver than a carrot ;-) Just as I promised I am pumping out another set of "short notice" items. To make sure not to be confused with what I have once heard someone call a "pubmed warrior", I did however spike today's episode with three longer items and saved a couple of mini-items for the next week. I hope you enjoy the ride and don't forget to copy " Fatfree " who asked for more in-depth info on TUDCA after reading last Saturday's installment of this series (see " Testosterone - 12% Drop With 75g Glucose? Low T3 Syndrome - Can TUDCA Help? "). If there is more information that would make a longer post worthwhile and I find the topic interesting enough to spent the time on doing the research, I am always willing to comply with wishes like this :-) Retinoic acid (not beta carotene!) can protect smokers from lung...
