Creatine Effective as an Antioxidant During Resistance Training
Researchers from the Laboratoria de Fisioilogia, UFCSPA/Porto, Alegre, Brazil
set out to test that creatine supplementation may provide antioxidant activity by scavenging Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) since this has not yet been described in the literature. They investigated the effect of creatine monohydrate supplementation associated with resistance training over maximum strength gain and oxidative stress in rats. Forty male rats were randomly assigned into 4 groups: Sedentary (SED), Sedentary + Creatine (SED-Cr), Resistance Training (RT) and Resistance Training + Creatine (RT-Cr). Results from this 8 week study showed greater strength gains in the SED-Cr, RT and RT-Cr groups compared to the SED group. The RT-Cr group showed the highest maximum strength gain when compared to other groups. Researchers concluded creatine to be an effective antioxidant with supplementation alone and also when it was associated with resistance training. (Stefani GP, Nunes RB, Dornelles AZ, et al.

Researchers from the Exponent,
Inc., Health Sciences, Chicago, IL conducted a comprehensive literature search of 14 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated whey protein concentrate, isolate or hydrolysate on body weight, bodymass index (BMI) body fat, lean body mass (LBM), fat-free mass and waist circumference in healthy adults. Results indicated a statistically VLJQLFDQW LQFUHDVH LQ /%0 DPRQJ studies that included a resistance exercise component along with whey protein provision. When researchers analyzed those weight loss studies that used whey protein to replace calories in the diet, participants had a decrease in body weight of 9.2 lbs. Researchers FRQFOXGHG WKH VFLHQWLF OLWHUDWXUH supports the use of whey protein, either as a supplement combined with resistance exercise or as part of a weight loss or weight maintenance diet, to improve body composition parameters.

Researchers from the Department of Neuropsychiatry, Asha
Hospital, Pradesh, India set out to evaluate the safety and efcacy of an Ashwagandha root extract in reducing stress and anxiety in adults. Sixty-four subjects with a history of chronic stress were randomized to either the placebo control group or the treatment group given a high- concentration full spectrum Ashwagandha extract for 60 days. Subjects taking the Ashwagandha supplement exhibited a signicant reduction in scores on all the stress-assessment scales relative to the placebo group. Serum cortisol levels were substantially reduced in the Ashwagandha group, relative to the placebo group. Researchers concluded that a high-concentration full-spectrum Ashwagandha root extract safely and effectively improves an individuals resistance towards stress and thereby improves self-assessed quality of life.
