Leucine Metabolite, Beta-Hydroxy Beta-Methylbutyrate (HMB) as an Intervention to Maintain Lean Body Mass and Performance during Sustained Military Operations
Soldiers in combat conduct sustained operations (SUSOPS) characterized by prolonged physical activity coupled with inadequate recovery and nutrition. This high operational tempo creates a catabolic condition in soldiers causing...
Fish is classed as a major allergenic food under the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA), which requires accurate information on food allergens to be included in the label of food products. Fishmeal, a fish by...
A cross-sectional study in older women was designed and conducted to identify prevalence, specific characteristics and diagnostic criteria for the newly identified condition named osteosarcopenic obesity syndrome. Osteosarcopenic obesity...
Purpose Due to ease of access to nutritional misinformation, it becomes difficult for the public to identify credible and current information. Adding to this, many individuals have not learned how to distinguish between trustworthy and...
The Effects of Beta-Hydroxy Βeta-Methylbutyrate (HMB) on Skeletal Muscles of Aged Sprague-Dawley Female Rats during 10-Week Intensive Resistance Exercise Training
HMB intake during Resistance Training (RT) is known to be an effective strategy to improve muscle mass & function and decrease FM. PURPOSE: To determine whether HMB administration during 10-wk RT would facilitate RT-induced improvement...
Obesity is a known pathological condition associated with impaired glucose homeostasis leading to type 2 diabetes and increased susceptibility to loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. Recent investigations have demonstrated...
Identification and Characterization of Select Allergens in Pecan [Carya Illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch] and Brazil Nut (Bertholletia Excelsa L.) Seeds
Tree nut allergies affect up to 0.2% young children and 0.5% adults in the US. The current investigation focused on two tree nuts (pecan and Brazil nut), with four specific aims: (i) to clone and characterize 2S albumin, a major allergen...
Breast cancer survivors (BCS) encounter side effects from cancer treatments that negatively affect body composition. Studies have shown that resistance training (RT) and dried plum (DP) consumption may elicit positive body composition...
The presence of misbranding and undeclared allergenic residues was the number one cause of food recalls in the United States, between 2012 to 2016. In this study, parvalbumin was used as a model to study the matrix effect on...
The Clinical Application of Periodized Resistance Training during a 12-Week Hypocaloric Treatment for Obesity: A Joint Retrospective and Prospective Single-Center Study
Introduction. Medically prescribed very-low calorie diet (VLCD) systems have shown efficacy in producing clinically significant weight-loss in obese patients. This loss in bodyweight (BW), however, cannot be solely accounted for by...
Approximately half of all cancer patients undergo cachexia, a paraneoplastic condition characterized by unintended weight loss, skeletal muscle atrophy, and impaired physical function. Using a pre-clinical mouse model, we compared the...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death, with age being the strongest predictor of cardiovascular health. Age-related changes to the vasculature such as endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffening are believed to...
