Nutritional Supplements for the Treatment and Prevention of Sports-Related Concussion-Evidence Still Lacking.
Abstract Concussions are common neurologic events that affect many athletes. Very little has been studied on the treatment of concussions with supplements and medications. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reminds us that no supplement has been proven to treat concussions. Many animal studies show that supplements have potential for improving the effects of a brain injury but none have been shown to be of consistent benefit in human studies. Animal studies on severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) may not therefore be applicable transfer to sports-related concussions (SRC).Of the many supplements reviewed i...

Association the 25(OH) Vitamin D status with upper respiratory tract infections morbidity in water sports elite athletes.
CONCLUSIONS: VD insufficiency is quite pronounced among elite athletes engaged in synchronized swimming and swimmers. It is accompanied with a decrease of IFN-γ, increase of TNF-α, IL-4 and IL-6 level, and elevation of URTI morbidity. Seasonal monitoring and correction of the VD level for normalization of cytokine profile and decrease of URTI morbidity is definitely advised. PMID: 31062952 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Outdoor physical activity bears multiple benefits to health and society.
CONCLUSIONS: Giving the beneficial effects of outdoor sports and -physical activities, promotion strategies should be strongly advocated and developed nationally and globally. Likewise, dedicated research areas should inspire guidelines for the promotion of various outdoor activities - a good practice for the social scenario and the healthcare system.

The effects of vitamin D3 supplementation on serum total 25OHD concentration and physical performance: a randomised dose-response study.
CONCLUSIONS: Both 20 000 and 40 000 IU vitamin D(3) supplementation over a 6-week period elevates serum 25[OH]D concentrations above 50 nmol/l, but neither dose given for 12 weeks improved our chosen measures of physical performance. PMID: 23410885 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Fueling the rugby player: maximizing performance on and off the pitch.
Abstract Fueling the rugby athlete requires a sports nutrition plan that balances energy intake with energy output while providing the athlete with adequate fuel for recovery. The content and timing of meals are fundamental parts of a successful regimen and often require the athlete to participate in extensive planning and preparation to succeed. Carbohydrates, protein, and fat are the primary fuel of the rugby athlete's diet, and proper hydration is imperative to optimize performance. The use of dietary supplements such as energy drinks and caffeine are controversial, and the supplementation of vitamins and miner...

Blood Biomarker Profiling and Monitoring for High-Performance Physiology and Nutrition: Current Perspectives, Limitations and Recommendations
AbstractBlood test data were traditionally confined to the clinic for diagnostic purposes, but are now becoming more routinely used in many professional and elite high-performance settings as a physiological profiling and monitoring tool. A wealth of information based on robust research evidence can be gleaned from blood tests, including: the identification of iron, vitamin or energy deficiency; the identification of oxidative stress and inflammation; and the status of red blood cell populations. Serial blood test data can be used to monitor athletes and make inferences about the efficacy of training interventions, nutriti...

A-Z of nutritional supplements: dietary supplements, sports nutrition foods and ergogenic aids for health and performance: Part 41
Introductory remarks Vitamin preparations have been a stalwart of the supplement industry. They reflect both our understanding that they are, by definition, essential for optimal health and function, as well as our fears that either the food supply, or the way we consume it, fails to provide us with optimal amounts of these micronutrients. In the case of B-vitamins, the greatest research interest in supplementation occurred around World War II, tied to the reasonably new discovery of many of these vitamins and the interest in adequate war rations and military feeding plans. Even with the more targeted interest in sports nu...

Improving performance? Dietary supplementation practice in ultramarathon runners.
CONCLUSION: The practice of dietary supplementation is widespread among ultramarathon runners, who take a variety of supplements aimed at increasing performance or treating perceived deficiencies. Athletes should be properly educated about potential benefits and risks, especially those who are regularly tested for performance enhancing drugs, as dietary supplements can contain substances that lead to positive drug tests.

Concussions in Ice Hockey - Moving Toward Objective Diagnoses and Point-of-care Treatment: A Review.
Abstract The incidence of sport-related concussion coupled with a doubling of the participation rate in youth hockey over the past two decades provides impetus for the review of the most promising concussion treatment options. This narrative review summarizes the future treatment options for sport-related concussions in ice hockey, while acknowledging their generalizability to concussion in all sports. Symptom assessment, sign observation, as well as cognitive and balance testing, have historically been used to diagnose a concussion. These methods continue to improve, but the need for effective treatments is clear...

A review of the role of probiotics in sport.
Abstract Probiotics are defined as living microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. Health benefits can be attributed to an ability to assist the natural microflora, either to re-establish itself following imbalance or upregulate vital metabolic functions of the bacteria. Only a few select cultures have actually been proven to be beneficial and justifiably be called 'Probiotics' and include certain strains of Lactic Acid Bacteria (including Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria) which have conclusive health benefits on the host. Gut microbiota play a vital role in: m...
