Intermittent fasting (IF) is an increasingly popular dietary approach used for weight loss and overall health. While there increasing body of evidence demonstrating beneficial effects IF on blood lipids other health outcomes in the overweight obese, limited data are available about effect athletes. Thus, present study sought to investigate a modified protocol (i.e. time-restricted feeding) during resistance training healthy resistance-trained males. Thirty-four males were randomly assigned...
Abstract A randomized controlled trial was conducted to examine eight weeks of resistance training (RT) with and without time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in order assess nutrient intake changes body composition muscular strength young recreationally active males. The TRF programme consisted consuming all calories within a four‐hour period time for four days per week, but included no limitations on quantities or types foods consumed. RT performed three week alternating upper lower workouts. For...
A very limited amount of research has examined intermittent fasting (IF) programs, such as time-restricted feeding (TRF), in active populations. Our objective was to examine the effects TRF, with or without β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate (HMB) supplementation, during resistance training (RT). This study employed a randomized, placebo-controlled, reduced factorial design and double-blind respect supplementation TRF groups. Resistance-trained females were randomly assigned control diet (CD), plus...
Although fasting is increasingly applied for disease prevention and treatment, consensus on terminology lacking. Using Delphi methodology, an international, multidisciplinary panel of researchers clinicians standardized definitions various approaches in humans. Five online surveys a live conference were conducted with 38 experts, 25 whom completed all 5 surveys. Consensus was achieved the following terms: "fasting" (voluntary abstinence from some or foods beverages), "modified fasting"...
Although there is substantial interest in intermittent fasting as a dietary approach active individuals, information regarding its effects elite endurance athletes currently unavailable. The present parallel randomized trial investigated the of particular approach, called time-restricted eating (TRE), during 4 weeks high-level training. Sixteen under-23 cyclists were randomly assigned either to TRE group or control (ND). consumed 100% estimated daily energy needs an 8-h time window (from...
The fate of dietary protein in the gut is determined by microbial and host digestion utilization. Fermentation proteins generates bioactive molecules that have wide-ranging health effects on host. type can affect amino acid absorption, with animal generally being more efficiently absorbed compared plant proteins. In contrast to proteins, most such as pea protein, are incomplete Pea low methionine contains lower amounts branched-chain acids (BCAAs), which play a crucial role muscle health. We...
Recently, interest in time-restricted feeding (TRF) has increased from reports highlighting improvements body composition and muscular performance measures. Twenty-six recreationally active males were randomly assigned to either TRF (n = 13; ~22.9 years; 82.0 kg; 178.1 cm; 8 h eating window, 25% caloric deficit, 1.8 g/kg/day protein) or normal diet (ND; n ~22.5 83.3 177.5 meal pattern; groups. Participants underwent 4-weeks of supervised full resistance training. Changes (fat mass (FM), fat...
Recently, a modified intermittent fasting protocol was demonstrated to be able maintain muscle mass and strength, decrease fat mass, improve some inflammation cardiovascular risk factors in healthy resistance-trained males after 2 months. The present study sought investigate the long-term effects on these parameters.The experiment single-blind randomized study. Twenty subjects were enrolled underwent 12 months of either time-restricted eating (TRE) diet or normal (ND) protocol, along with...
1-Methylxanthine (1-MX) is the major metabolite of caffeine and paraxanthine might contribute to their activity. 1-MX an adenosine receptor antagonist increases release survivability neurotransmitters; however, no study has addressed potential physiological effects ingestion. The aim this was compare effect on memory related biomarkers in rats compared control. Memory (escape latency Morris water maze test), neurotransmitters (acetylcholine, dopamine, gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA)),...
It has been debated whether different diets are more or less effective in long-term weight loss success and cardiovascular disease prevention among men women. To further explore these questions, the present study evaluated combined effects of a high-protein, intermittent fasting, low-calorie diet plan compared with heart healthy during loss, maintenance on blood lipids vascular compliance obese individuals.The experiment involved 40 adults (men, n = 21; women, 19) was divided into two...
