Child nutrition is a key element for children's physical, cognitive, and emotional development. When combined with the practice of sports such as artistic gymnastics, food plays an even more critical role. This sport requires strength, flexibility, agility, balance endurance, in addition to promoting intense energy expenditure. Therefore, balanced diet that appropriate individual needs essential healthy growth, athletic performance prevention health problems. Childhood marked by accelerated...
Nutrition plays a central role in children's physical, mental, and emotional development, especially for those who play sports such as swimming. This article explored the intersection between balanced nutrition performance, highlighting importance of multidisciplinary approach to ensure that young swimmers reach their full potential. Childhood is critical period growth formation habits influence adult life. In this context, essential, providing necessary nutrients cognitive, immune...
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition that affects millions of people worldwide, being responsible for most cases dementia. This disease, characterized by progressive cognitive decline, significantly impacts the quality life patients and their families. Amid search effective treatments, non-pharmacological interventions, such as Mediterranean diet physical activity, emerge promising approaches prevention management Alzheimer's. Diet: Nutrition Brain Health: The diet,...
Mental health is one of the essential pillars for human well-being, especially in face growing number mental disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and stress, which affect people different age groups. In this context, physical exercise has been widely studied its positive effects on health, proving to be an important tool both prevention management these disorders. This study reviews main scientific evidence that points benefits exercise, highlighting most effective modalities, aerobic...
Alzheimer's disease (MA) is a progressive neurodegenerative characterized by the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques and hyperphosphorylated tau neurofibrillary tangles, resulting in synaptic dysfunction severe cognitive decline. Brain energy metabolism compromised due to reduced glucose uptake insulin resistance brain, aggravating oxidative stress neuroinflammation. In this context, medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) emerge as promising metabolic alternative. TCMs are rapidly converted into...
To investigate how overall and abdominal adiposity, measured by waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), sum of skinfolds (sigmaSK), affect plasma C-reactive protein levels (CRP) in elderly women.Study sample consisted 387 women older than 60 years (mean age 68.9; standard deviation 5.9 years). BMI, WC, sigmaSK, CRP were all measured. One-way ANOVA was performed to detect differences study variables among the investigated. Logistic regression analysis used determine influence fat...
People in general have access to guidance on body care and health via media, market exchanges made social networks, especially. However, much of what comes them is abbreviated information, when not wrong guidance. The aim this study was systematize the components health-related physical fitness make accessible people seeking activities context leisure. Health-related refers condition capabilities that bring implications for quality life population being such flexibility, aerobic resistance,...
The purpose of the present study was to investigate biochemical effects carbohydrate supplementation in a simulated competition short terrestrial duathlon. Ten duathletes participated duathlon 30 minutes after ingestion 6% (30 g/500 ml) maltodextrin solution (MALT) or placebo (PLA). This also ingested every 15 during (12 g/200 ml); and immediately (18 g/300 ml). Samples blood were collected at 3 time points: 1) rest 1 hour before beginning competition; 2) (approximately 45 1st collection);...
Background Energy drinks are often marketed to the consumer as a performance enhancing beverage. When benefits realized, it is likely due caffeine content present in typical energy drinks. There have been few scientific studies investigating effects of drink ingestion on anaerobic assessed by repeated 20-second Wingate tests. PURPOSE: To determine caffeine-containing, commercially available peak power produced during two, tests separated 150 seconds.
Persian' acid lime (PAL) is the most important triploid commercial citrus crop planted in world.Little known about genetic variability of selections used Brazil.Therefore, 25 genotypes originating from PAL, and three control species, Citrus sunki, C. limon, aurantiifolia, were assessed using intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism (IRAP) molecular markers agronomic traits fruit.The dendrograms designed mean Euclidean distance for physicochemical...

At the beginning of this new century, scientific analyzes that are concerned with clarifying and therefore warn people about time-related social practices in modern society. In context, we consider eating is an activity everyday life symbolizes inscription a culture constitutes practice to be observed. However, involved speed imposed on life, making barely have time feed. We live under pressure scarcity time, charged make immediate decisions, real fight against clock - all name maximum "time...
Depression, a mental pathology of high prevalence and impact on quality life, demands complementary therapeutic approaches. The review emphasized the psychological benefits, notably improvement mood self -esteem, resulting from modulation neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, endorphins, associated with physical activity. Additionally, activity influences endocrine axis, manifesting itself in reducing production stress hormones, exemplified by cortisol. However, it is noteworthy...
Identify the main contributing factors to childhood obesity, focusing on genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors. Explore consequences of both in terms physical health psychological social impact. Genetic predisposition plays a significant role obesity. Studies have shown that children obese parents are more likely become obese, indicating genetic inheritance as an important factor. Specific genes regulate appetite, metabolism, fat storage can influence child's tendency gain weight....
