EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY AND OCCUPATIONAL PHYSIOLOGY Volume 57, Number 1, 45-48, DOI: 10.1007/BF00691236 Induced metabolic alkalosis and its effects on 400-m racing time Jo Goldfinch, Lars Mc Naughton and Peter Davies Six trained male athletes who competed regularly in 400 metre races, were studied under control, alkalotic (NaHCO3) and placebo (CaCO3) conditions to [...]

Effects of graded carbohydrate supplementation on the immune response in cycling. Scharhag J, Meyer T, Auracher M, Gabriel HH, Kindermann W. PURPOSE: This study examined the acute immune response after three standardized cycling sessions of [...]
Clin J Sport Med. 2001 Jan;11(1):38-43. The acute phase response and exercise: the ultramarathon as prototype exercise. Fallon KE. OBJECTIVE: Controversy exists in relation to the nature of the acute phase response, which is known to occur following endurance exercise. This study was conducted to demonstrate the similarities between this response and the response consequent [...]
J Sports Sci. 1995 Summer;13 Spec No:S49-53. Central and peripheral factors in fatigue. Davis JM. The causes of fatigue during muscular exercise include factors that reside in the brain (central mechanisms) as well as the muscles themselves (peripheral mechanisms). Central fatigue is largely unexplored, but there is increasing evidence that increased brain serotonin (5-HT) can [...]
Am J Clin Nutr. 2000 Aug;72(2 Suppl):573S-8S. Serotonin and central nervous system fatigue: nutritional considerations. Davis JM, Alderson NL, Welsh RS. Fatigue from voluntary muscular effort is a complex phenomenon involving the central nervous system (CNS) and muscle. An understanding of the mechanisms within muscle that cause fatigue has led to the development of nutritional [...]
Change your perspective on exercise with this informative compilation of quotes from the writings of Ray Peat, PhD. “Since fat has a very low rate of metabolism, people who lose muscle by fasting are going to have increasing difficulty in losing weight, since they will have less active tissue to consume fat. Building up muscle [...]
Pathol Biol (Paris). 1979 Dec;27(10):615-26. [Biological and pharmacological effects of carrageenan (author's transl)]. [Article in French] Roch-Arveiller M, Giroud JP. Carrageenan is sulfated polysaccharide which has been extensively used as emulsifier and thickening agent in the food industry, for its ability to induce acute inflammation in pharmacology and for its selectively toxic effect for macrophages [...]

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the key player in O2 transport due to 1) vasodilation and 2) the the Bohr effect (or the Bohr law). The Bohr effect explains oxygen release in capillaries or why red blood cells unload oxygen in tissues. The Bohr effect was first described in 1904 by the Danish physiologist Christian Bohr [...]
