Effects of Microhydrin supplementation on endurance performance and metabolism in well-trained cyclists

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to investigate whether the supplement Microhydrin (MH) contains silica hydride bonds (Si-H) and whether Microhydrin supplementation increased performance or altered metabolism compared to placebo (PL) during prolonged endurance cycling. The results indicated that oral Microhydrin supplementation did not enhance cycling time trial performance or alter metabolism during prolonged submaximal exercise in endurance-trained cyclists.

One year of oral calcium supplementation maintains cortical bone density in young adult female distance runners

Article Abstract:

A double-blind placebo-controlled, randomized trial was conducted to determine whether one year of supplemental calcium intake would augment hip bone marrow density in young adult female distance runners. Studies reveal that the addition 800 mg/d of supplemental calcium to the diet of young adult female distance runners with habitual calcium intakes of ~ 1000 mg/d prevents cortical but not trabecular bone loss.
