The ability of ketogenic low‐carbohydrate (CHO) high‐fat (K‐LCHF) diets to enhance
muscle fat oxidation has led to claims that it is the 'future of elite endurance sport'. There is …

Both the consumption of a diet rich in fatty acids and exercise training result in similar
adaptations in several skeletal muscle proteins. These adaptations are involved in fatty acid …

Key points Three weeks of intensified training and mild energy deficit in elite race walkers
increases peak aerobic capacity independent of dietary support. Adaptation to a ketogenic …

Background Many successful ultra-endurance athletes have switched from a high-
carbohydrate to a low-carbohydrate diet, but they have not previously been studied to …

Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is manifested by decreased insulin‐stimulated glucose
uptake and results from impaired insulin signaling and multiple post‐receptor intracellular …

Impaired mitochondrial function often results in excessive production of reactive oxygen
species (ROS) and is involved in the etiology of many chronic diseases, including …

The aim of the present study was to establish fat oxidation rates over a range of exercise
intensities in a large group of healthy men and women. It was hypothesised that exercise …

A reduced capacity for mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle has been
proposed as a major factor leading to the accumulation of intramuscular lipids and their …

Interventions aimed at increasing fat metabolism could potentially reduce the symptoms of
metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes and may have tremendous clinical …

Background: Green tea consumption is reportedly associated with various health-promoting
properties. For example, it has been shown to promote fat oxidation in humans at rest and to …
