Green tea extract has been shown to protect against kidney damage caused by gentamicin, a commonly used antibiotic known to induce nephrotoxicity. It achieves this by enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity, reducing oxidative stress, and minimizing ...
Low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LCHF) diets can enhance fat metabolism and endurance by increasing fat oxidation and sparing muscle glycogen, potentially benefiting military personnel operating in stressful, resource-limited environments. This metabolic adaptation may improve stamina, reduce injury ...
Brief exertional tasks combined with heart rate variability (HRV) measurements can help detect autonomic nervous system dysfunction after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), which affects recovery and readiness to resume full activity. Monitoring HRV during ...
Older women face significant challenges to regular sport and exercise participation due to caregiving responsibilities, time constraints, and physical changes like menopause that affect performance and motivation. These barriers are compounded by societal expectations and ...
