SuppVersity - Nutrition and Exercise Science for Everyone

Editorial provides compelling evidence from meta-analyses, but their results are context-dependent ... "The story of fructose reflects the cyclic nature of much in nutrition." That's what John Sievenpiper writes in his latest editorial in  The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition ; and he's right. If you review the history of the science on fructose you will see that it went full circle - not once, but repeatedly. As Sievenpiper points out, the latest meta-analyses by Evans et al.

Well, its effects on body composition are attractive for BBs & Co, its potential ability to boost anaerobic performance for sprinters and its lack of effect on VO2max limits their use in marathoners to accelerated recovery. If you believe in the claims of the supplement industry, you probably expect extreme gains, significant fat loss and huge performance increases from a boost in natural GH production. Well, guess what: that's another of the lies the industry is based on. There's no "natural GH booster" that will increase the total amount of growth hormone your body produces on a daily basis (early studies also suggest that the effect wears off over time, even if you use the products only every 10 days | Isidori 1981). As reported previously in articles about combinations of various amino acids, some may - if t...
