25.01.2022 The two key OMEGA 3’s we hear about is DHA and EPA. We need about 250 mg of each daily as it is a major structural component of the mammalian brain and a prominent component of the neuronal membranes. Numerous studies have shown a correlation between DHA levels and Brain Volume, specifically the size of the hippocampus, which is the brains memory centre. EPA is an important regulator of inflammation and appears to be particularly important for controlling cellular inflammation in the brain. In this realm, a lot of research on brain -related ailments such as depression, ADHD and brain trauma have shown EPA to be superior to DHA, so you can see how we need both. -from The Switch by James W. Clement

24.01.2022 NEW EP!! Dean Mawby is a pioneer in the area of strength training for the 60 plus age group and this is a great chat about an important issue. I’ve long been an... advocate of strength training for our ‘more experienced’ citizens, with benefits ranging from the obvious physical, practical and medical, to the not-so-obvious social, emotional and cognitive. Everything from improved strength, function, bone density endurance, balance, energy and overall physical performance, to improved self-esteem, confidence, happiness and quality of life. If I created a drug for our older population that could do what strength training can (1) that shit would sell like hotcakes (2) everyone would take it and (3) I’d be rich AF. *NOTE: As is often the way with Zoom recording, we had a few minor audio glitches in spots. Apologies. See more

01.01.2022 The Truth about Using Collagen for Fitness Collagen is a common topic, especially related to weightlifting. Does this supplement really enhance muscle mass? ... And what exactly is it? What is Collagen , Collagen Peptides, and Collagen Hydrolysate? If you begin to look at collagen, you’ll see a lot of different terms you may not understand. Collagen. Collagen is a type of protein and the most abundant protein in the human body. It provides a lot of the structure and elasticity in muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, blood vessels, and connective tissues. As we age, collagen levels drop, which contributes to several signs of aging, like wrinkles and saggy skin, joint pain, stiffer tendons and ligaments, and weaker muscles. Collagen peptides. Peptides are simply chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are very large molecules. Collagen broken down into smaller pieces is sometimes referred to as collagen peptides. Collagen hydrolysate. You’ll see most supplements labeled as either collagen peptides or collagen hydrolysate. They are the same. Hydrolysate simply means the collagen has been hydrolyzed, or broken down into smaller pieces, also known as peptides. Collagen is hydrolyzed and turned into peptides to make it easier to digest. Collagen levels drop naturally as we age, but it’s also possible to have too little collagen as a result of a poor diet. Collagen products have mostly been marketed for improving skin condition and bone strength, but as evidence from research grows we’re beginning to see collagen used for fitness and athletic performance. So, does it work? Can you really see fitness improvements from increasing your collagen intake? The answer is a definite yes. Here are some of the fitness benefits of collagen that are backed by least research evidence. Reduce Joint Pain with More Collagen Collagen is an important component of cartilage, the tissue that cushions and support joints. As we get older this tissue wears down, and the process occurs more rapidly in athletes. As cartilage wears away we experience joint pain and even arthritis. Studies have shown that using collagen can reduce joint pain and specific symptoms of osteoarthritis. One study looked at a group of 147 athletes over the course of 24 weeks. All had pain in their joints related to athletic activities. Seventy-three of the athletes were given collagen. The rest got a placebo. The results showed that those who got the actual collagen experienced greater reduction in joint pain, both at rest and when walking. If joint pain bothers you and limits how much you exercise, a solution like collagen useful. Reducing joint pain can improve fitness by allowing for more mobility and simply being able to work out and train. Improving Muscle Mass Collagen is an important component of muscles. One reason that muscle mass decreases with age is that collagen decreases. Research has already proven that collagen can reverse this aging trend in people diagnosed with sarcopenia, age-related muscle loss. The study specifically looked at elderly men with muscle loss, but the processes discovered could potentially apply to anyone. The researchers found that when men combined exercise with a post-workout collagen, they built more muscle mass than those that exercised and received a placebo. Evidence that collagen can increase muscle mass in younger, healthy people simply looking to supercharge their lifting workouts is limited. But, the proof that collagen plays such an active role building muscle. One reason collagen may help with muscle mass is that it contains the amino acids arginine and glycine, important building blocks for creatine. There is already plenty of evidence that creatine helps improve muscle mass, build strength, and improve athletic performance. Collagen for Fitness Enhances Recovery Recovery can be a roadblock to improving fitness and hitting athletic goals. Everyone needs recovery time, but it may be possible to speed that rest period using collagen. The recovery of muscles damaged during workouts depends on regenerating muscle fibers and producing scar tissue. Both of these processes require collagen, and collagen production is boosted during healing. Reduce Sports Injuries with Collagen Injuries are not just painful but they also slow you down in your fitness routine and athletics. If you can prevent injuries or get fewer, you have more time to train and improve. There are a lot of important ways to reduce the risk of injury, and collagen could be added to that list. Studies have shown that collagen actually increases the diameter of tendons in joints. One study in particular looked at athletes and their ankles. The athletes were given collagen supplements or a placebo for six months. Those with the supplement had significantly lower rates of ankle injuries.
