Nicotinamide mononucleotide supplementation enhances aerobic capacity in amateur runners: A randomized, double-blind study

From 2021, this six-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, clinical trial included 48 young and middle-aged recreationally trained runners. Authors concluded that NMN increases the aerobic capacity of humans during exercise training, and the improvement is likely the result of enhanced O2 utilization of the skeletal muscle.

The influence of D-ribose ingestion and fitness level on performance and recovery

In a double-blind crossover study, 26 healthy subjects were given 10 g daily of D-ribose or 10 g daily of dextrose (which served as the control) for two days, followed by another three days of treatment that was paired with high intensity exercise (60 minutes of cycling). When subjects took D-ribose, the mean and peak …

Effect of D-ribose supplementation on delayed onset muscle soreness induced by plyometric exercise in college students

In a randomized placebo-controlled trial from 2020, 21 healthy male college students were subjected to several plyometric exercises to induce delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Students were then randomized to 15 g of D-ribose or placebo. After a two week washout period, the exercise session was repeated and treatment was given again one hour pre-exercise, 24 …

Effects of whey protein isolate on body composition, lipids, insulin and glucose in overweight and obese individuals

This randomized, controlled, parallel design study was conducted to evaluate the effects of whey protein (27 g) supplementation on body composition, lipids, insulin and glucose in comparison to casein (27 g) and glucose (control – 27 g) supplementation in overweight/obese individuals. The results show a significant decrease in triacylglyceride levels, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, …

A whey-protein supplement increases fat loss and spares lean muscle in obese subjects: A randomized human clinical study

This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-arm study evaluated a whey protein supplement, high in leucine, bioactive peptides and milk calcium, for its ability to enhance weight loss in study participants, along with a 500 calorie reduction per day. The results show that both groups lost a significant amount of weight from baseline, with the supplementation group …
