This book was released on 2020 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) occurs following strenuous and/or unaccustomed exercise including resistance training. EIMD is associated with elevated blood creatine kinase (CK) concentrations, limitations in range of motion (ROM), a reduction in muscular power, and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). EIMD may negatively affect training quality and performance, thus methods to mitigate EIMD may be useful for resistance training populations including both athletes and recreationally active individuals. Omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are known for their anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive properties. The current literature on supplementation with n-3 fatty acids and EIMD is not conclusive, however, there are data showing supplementation can ameliorate EIMD and facilitate recovery in both untrained and resistance-trained individuals following resistance exercise, particularly at higher doses. Presently, a characterization of efficacious doses of n-3 supplementation is currently lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 33 days of six and eight grams of n-3 supplementation on markers of muscle damage and recovery after an acute bout of eccentric resistance exercise in resistance trained males. It was hypothesized that both six and eight grams of n-3 supplementation would attenuate EIMD and promote recovery following eccentric resistance exercise. In this double-blind randomized control study, 26 resistance trained males (23 ± 4 years; 173.6 ± 20.5 cm.; 81.9 ± 9.7 kg; 14.2 ± 3.7% BF) supplemented with six grams of n-3 fatty acids (n=10), eight grams n-3 fatty acids (n=7), or placebo (n=9) for 33 days total. On day 30, participants completed an acute bout of eccentric resistance exercise (10 sets of 8 repetitions barbell back squat at 70% 1RM with a four second eccentric, followed by 5 sets of 10 repetitions per side body weight split squat jumps). Participants were instructed to refrain from additional recovery methods post-exercise. Outcome measures included vertical jump height (VJH), perceived muscle soreness (PMS), hip and knee range of motion (ROM), repetitions to fatigue (RTF) at 70% 1RM barbell back squat, and serum creatine kinase (CK). Vertical jump height, PMS, hip and knee ROM, and capillary blood samples were taken immediately pre-exercise bout (day 30), 1 day (1d), 2 days (2d) and 3 days (3d) post-exercise, while number of RTF were completed at the familiarization session (day 21, 22, or 23) and 3d post-exercise. There was a significant difference in VJH from pre to 1d post-exercise (p=0.009, 1d to 2d (p=0.02), and 2d to 3d post-exercise (p=0.002) in all groups. Perceived muscle soreness significantly increased from pre to 1d, 2d, and 3d hour post-exercise (p 0.05), and significantly decreased at 3d post-exercise compared with 1d and 2d (p 0.05) in all groups. No significant changes occurred in hip and knee range of motion from pre to post-exercise in all groups (p 0.05), or number of (RTF) from pre-exercise (day 21, 22, or 23) to 3d post-exercise (p 0.05). There was a significant increase in serum CK from pre-exercise to 1, 2, and 3d-post exercise (p

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the daily consumption of fish oil, containing 2.4g of n-3 fatty acids (1400 mg Eicosapentaenoic acid + 1000 mg Docosahexaenoic acid), on pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-1[beta], IL-6, and TNF-[alpha] for 8 weeks in CKD patients, stages 2-5. One prevalent characteristic of all stages of CKD is excessive production of these pro-inflammatory cytokines. Fish oil supplementation has been claimed to lower the levels of these pro-inflammatory cytokines, and as a result decrease the severity of inflammatory diseases. The benefits of fish oil supplementation for an extensive range of populations and a variety of health concerns are apparent, yet the anti-inflammatory benefits for stages 2-5 CKD patients are not as well documented. Consequently, continued studies in this area are clearly needed. Thirty-one individuals completed the current study, with 17 subjects in the fish oil group, while 14 subjects were included in the comparison group (safflower oil). Separate Repeated Measures ANOVAs were used to measure changes in the primary outcome variables using a 2 (fish oil or safflower oil) x 2 (time points) design. Significance level was set at p [less-than or equal to] 0.05. The results of this study showed that fish oil supplementation does not decrease plasma pro-inflammatory markers TNF-[alpha], IL-6, and IL-1[beta] in CKD patients, stages 2-5. The analysis of TNF-[alpha] levels revealed no significant difference across time (p = 0.92) or between groups (p = 0.94). However, there was a group by time interaction, (p = 0.03). The analysis between IL-6 levels and treatment resulted in no significant difference across time (p = 0.30), between groups (p = 0.15), nor was there a significant group by time interaction with the trends across time differing by group membership (p = 0.82). Finally, the analysis between treatment and IL-1[beta] resulted in no significant difference in IL-1[beta] levels across time (p = 0.17), between groups (p = 0.26) nor treatment-by-time interaction either (p = 0.44). The supplementation of fish oil was not found to decrease markers of inflammation, but did demonstrate that a short-term administration of fish oil is well-tolerated by CKD patients, stages 2-5. But, further investigation is essential to better define the long-term impact of fish oil supplementation in this high-risk population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fish oil supplementation (containing eicosapentaenoic acid; EPA and docosahexaenoic acid; DHA) may have a potential role in overcoming the age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and function, termed sarcopenia. The aim of this thesis was to determine whether fish oil supplementation can enhance anabolic signalling, muscle strength, protein metabolism and functional abilities in ageing skeletal muscle. In ageing rats (aged 13 months) the effect of 8-week fish oil (2.5 g/day, consisting of 240 mg EPA and 245 mg DHA) supplementation on skeletal muscle anabolic signalling pathways and changes in lean body mass was determined. The data revealed fish oil supplementation tended (P=0.09) to preserve total lean mass loss and increased whole-body glucose flux and phosphorylation of the PI3K-PDK1-p70s6k pathway in type II glycolytic muscle fibres. There was no effect of supplementation on markers of inflammation. In C2C12 myotubes, the distinct effects of EPA and DHA on protein synthesis, protein breakdown and signalling pathways, information previously unknown, was examined. Data showed that EPA (50 μM) augmented L-leucine stimulated protein synthesis and anabolic signalling. EPA also reduced protein breakdown and catabolic signalling. DHA (50 μM) increased anabolic signalling (specifically p70s6k phosphorylation) but had no effect on any other measures. In healthy older women (aged> 65 years) the effect of fish oil supplementation, 4 g/day fish oil (containing 1.7 g EPA and 0.4 g DHA) daily for 12 weeks, on adaptations in skeletal muscle function in response to resistance training was examined. The data revealed that fish oil supplementation enhanced adaptations in isometric strength, gait speed, and also decreased markers of insulin resistance.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endurance exercise can affect immune function and eccentric exercise can result in increased oxidative stress. Fish oil has anti-inflammatory properties, and can be beneficial in conditions such as cardiovascular disease and may also modulate immune and oxidative responses to exercise. However, the effects of fish oil supplementation on immune function and oxidative stress after an exercise bout are currently unknown. This thesis investigated the effect of supplementation with fish oil capsules on the immune response to a bout of endurance exercise and on markers of oxidative stress following a bout of eccentric exercise. In the first study, sixteen males underwent 6 week's supplementation with either fish oil or placebo followed by an endurance exercise bout. Blood samples were taken pre-exercise, immediately, 1h and 3h post-exercise. Samples were analysed for a range of immune and inflammatory markers. Fish oil increased PBMC IL-2 and NK cell function compared to control in the recovery period. In the second study, twenty males underwent 6 week's supplementation with either fish oil or placebo followed by a bout of eccentric exercise. Blood samples were taken pre-exercise and immediately, 24h, 48h and 72h post-exercise. Samples were analysed for a range of markers of oxidative stress and muscle damage. Fish oil decreased plasma TBARS and DNA damage in the days following the exercise bout. This thesis demonstrates that fish oil supplementation increases PBMC IL-2 production and NK cell activity in the recovery period after a bout of endurance exercise and also reduces plasma TBARS and induced DNA damage after a bout of eccentric exercise. These results show that fish oil can protect against infection with URTI in the recovery period following exercise and may also protect against exercise-induced oxidative stress. However, this may also inhibit any oxidative stress-mediated adaptation to exercise.
Download or read book The Effects of Acai euterpe Oleracea Mart on Delayed Muscle Soreness doms in Collegiate Male Athletes and Non athletes written by Ana Paula Fantini and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eccentric exercise often results in the production of markers of oxidative stress and an inflammatory response, which leads to delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). DOMS is associated with impaired muscular performance. Dietary interventions may reduce inflammation and improve physical performance. The first aim of this investigation was to determine if Acai supplementation reduces markers of oxidative stress and the inflammatory process caused by eccentric exercise. The second aim was to determine if Acai supplementation reduces muscle soreness and improves muscle function. Individuals were counterbalanced/stratified into the Acai group or a placebo group. Supplementation started 48 hours prior to downhill running. Markers of oxidative stress and inflammation, and range of motion, muscle soreness perception, agility, and vertical jump displacement were assessed at baseline, after, 24, and 48 hours after downhill running. Twenty collegiate athletes and non-athletes (21±2 years old) completed the protocol. The Acai group (N = 10) reported significantly less muscle soreness in the quadriceps muscle (p = .011) compared to the placebo group (N = 10). In addition, there was a significant difference (p = .023) in the group by time interaction in the quadriceps muscle soreness. Furthermore, the Acai group scored slightly different on range of motion, agility, vertical jump displacement, creatine kinase, and c-reactive levels compared to the placebo group throughout all 4 time periods. Acai has demonstrated to be an effective supplement to decrease quadriceps muscle soreness after downhill running. Furthermore, the consistency of results throughout the 4 time periods may suggest its potential to slightly change performance and levels of oxidative stress and inflammation.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine whether patients in a long term acute care setting who received an enteral supplement containing EPA+DHA, would have a shorter weaning time from the ventilator, a decrease in length of hospital stay, decreased inflammatory markers, and number of infections from baseline to post-treatment compared to patients who received a placebo of normal saline solution. Methods: Nine participants who required mechanical ventilation and enteral nutrition support in a long term acute care hospital were randomized to either receive the treatment fish oil (n=5) or the placebo saline solution (n=4). Participants in the treatment group were given 8g fish oil per day through the enteral feeding tube for 14 days. Subjects randomized to the control group received a blinded saline solution for 14 days. All enteral supplement formulations were createdby a certified pharmacist. Results: There were no significant differences between the treatment and control groups in regards to time to weaning, percent of days on the ventilator, or length of hospital stay. Inflammatory markers did not significantly decrease in either group from baseline to posttreatment. There was a trend towards a lower rate of infection in the treatment group compared to the control group, however these results were not significant. Conclusion: The results of this randomized double blind clinical trial suggest that adding fish oil(EPA/DHA) to enteral formulas does not result in reduced weaning time for patients on a ventilator, decreased length of hospital stay, or markers of inflammation. Additional researchneeds to be conducted with a larger group of participants to determine whether a high dose of EPA +DHA from fish oil can decrease inflammation in this specific population.
