This book was released on 1994-02-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physiological or psychological stresses that employees bring to their workplace affect not only their own performance but that of their co-workers and others. These stresses are often compounded by those of the job itself. Medical personnel, firefighters, police, and military personnel in combat settingsâ€"among othersâ€"experience highly unpredictable timing and types of stressors. This book reviews and comments on the performance-enhancing potential of specific food components. It reflects the views of military and non-military scientists from such fields as neuroscience, nutrition, physiology, various medical specialties, and performance psychology on the most up-to-date research available on physical and mental performance enhancement in stressful conditions.

Download or read book Effect of Intake of Choline from Egg Vs Choline Bitartrate Supplement on Insulin Resistance Plasma Choline Plasma Lipids and Inflammatory Markers on a Metabolic Syndrome Population written by Marissa Dibella and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract Background: Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is a widespread condition that results in increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). MetS is often accompanied by lowgrade inflammation and insulin resistance. Eggs are a low cost, nutrient dense food that are a good source of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and fat-soluble vitamins. However, due to their high cholesterol content, the health effects of eggs remain controversial. Objective: This study aims to investigates the effects of choline from egg (PC) vs. supplement (choline bitartrate, CB) on concentrations of plasma choline, lipids, glucose, insulin, and inflammatory biomarkers. Subjects and Methods: Twenty-four women and men with MetS were recruited for this 12-week, randomized cross-over dietary intervention. Following a screening to qualify for participation, subjects completed a two-week washout period where they began the study long diet of abstaining from eggs and choline rich foods. After the washout, a four-week intervention phase involved the consumption of either three large, whole eggs per day or CB supplement. A second, three- week washout period occurred before the subjects crossed over to the alternate intervention for the remaining four-weeks of the study. Data collection occurred before and after each intervention phase. Results: With both interventions, plasma choline concentrations increased while interleukin (IL)-6 concentrations decreased from baseline. Only the egg phase impacted C-reactive proteins (CRP), insulin, and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) which all improved from baseline. No change in plasma lipids were reported after either intervention including triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL)- cholesterol or high density lipoprotein (HDL)- cholesterol, compared either to baseline or between treatments. Conclusion: Intake of three eggs per day improved plasma choline concentrations, while not increasing plasma LDL- cholesterol concentrations. Eggs also provided additional benefits on biomarkers of CVD and T2D compared to choline supplement. Therefore, eggs should be considered a healthful part of the diet for people with MetS.

Download or read book Dietary Reference Intakes for Thiamin Riboflavin Niacin Vitamin B6 Folate Vitamin B12 Pantothenic Acid Biotin and Choline written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-07-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1941, Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) has been recognized as the most authoritative source of information on nutrient levels for healthy people. Since publication of the 10th edition in 1989, there has been rising awareness of the impact of nutrition on chronic disease. In light of new research findings and a growing public focus on nutrition and health, the expert panel responsible for formulation RDAs reviewed and expanded its approachâ€"the result: Dietary Reference Intakes. This new series of references greatly extends the scope and application of previous nutrient guidelines. For each nutrient the book presents what is known about how the nutrient functions in the human body, what the best method is to determine its requirements, which factors (caffeine or exercise, for example) may affect how it works, and how the nutrient may be related to chronic disease. This volume of the series presents information about thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, pantothenic acid, biotin, and choline. Based on analysis of nutrient metabolism in humans and data on intakes in the U.S. population, the committee recommends intakes for each age groupâ€"from the first days of life through childhood, sexual maturity, midlife, and the later years. Recommendations for pregnancy and lactation also are made, and the book identifies when intake of a nutrient may be too much. Representing a new paradigm for the nutrition community, Dietary Reference Intakes encompasses: Estimated Average Requirements (EARs). These are used to set Recommended Dietary Allowances. Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs). Intakes that meet the RDA are likely to meet the nutrient requirement of nearly all individuals in a life-stage and gender group. Adequate Intakes (AIs). These are used instead of RDAs when an EAR cannot be calculated. Both the RDA and the AI may be used as goals for individual intake. Tolerable Upper Intake Levels (ULs). Intakes below the UL are unlikely to pose risks of adverse health effects in healthy people. This new framework encompasses both essential nutrients and other food components thought to pay a role in health, such as dietary fiber. It incorporates functional endpoints and examines the relationship between dose and response in determining adequacy and the hazards of excess intake for each nutrient.
