Physical activity, particularly high-intensity eccentric muscle contractions, produces exercise-
induced muscle damage (EIMD). The breakdown of muscle fibers and the consequent …

All nations which have undergone a nutrition transition have experienced increased
frequency and falling latency of chronic degenerative diseases, which are largely driven by …

Purpose This review provides an overview of the current knowledge of the nutritional
strategies to treat the signs and symptoms related to EIMD. These strategies have been …

Background: Athletes maintain a balance between stress and recovery and adopt recovery
modalities that manage fatigue and enhance recovery and performance. Optimal TST is …

Extreme or unaccustomed eccentric exercise can cause exercise-induced muscle damage,
characterized by structural changes involving sarcomere, cytoskeletal, and membrane …

This randomized trial compared pea protein, whey protein, and water-only supplementation
on muscle damage, inflammation, delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS), and physical …

Probiotics have been rapidly developed for health promotion, but clinical validation of the
effects on exercise physiology has been limited. In a previous study, Lactobacillus plantarum …

Food bioactive compounds (FBC) comprise a vast class of substances, including
polyphenols, with different chemical structures, and they exert physiological effects on …

Background Flavonoid polyphenols are bioactive phytochemicals found in fruits and teas
among other sources. It has been postulated that foods and supplements containing …

Background: It is known that unaccustomed exercise—especially when it has an eccentric
component—causes muscle damage and subsequent performance decrements. Attenuating …
