❇️ Daily supplementation with the TWK10 (60 billion CFUs per day) may enhance the performance benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and improve measures of hip circumference, says a new study from Taiwan and Japan. ❇️ Writing in the Journal of the International Society of Sports, the researchers noted that although HIIT, improved exercise tolerance in obese women (47 obese women, between the ages of 35 and 55 with a body fat percentage of over 35%), it may also increase waist size. Concurrent supplementation with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum TWk10, however, mitigated these negative outcomes and improved hip circumference. ❇️ The data also indicated that HIIT plus TWK10 could improve markers of exercise tolerance such as time to exhaustion (TTE). https://lnkd.in/dVqbYUjK

❇️ The short-term boost our brains get after we do exercise persists throughout the following day, suggests a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers. ❇️ The new study, published in the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, found that, on average, people aged 50 to 83 who did more moderate to vigorous physical activity than usual on a given day did better in memory tests the day after. ❇️ Less time spent sitting and six hours or more of sleep were also linked to better scores in memory tests the next day. ❇️ More deep (slow-wave) sleep also contributed to memory function, and the research team found this accounted for a small portion of the link between exercise and better next-day memory. ❇️ The research team looked at data from 76 men and women who wore activity trackers for eight days and took cognitive tests each day. ❇️ Among the study limitations, the researchers noted that the participants were a cognitively healthy group, meaning the results might not be true for people who have neurocognitive disorders. ❇️❇️❇️❇️ Moderate or vigorous activity means anything that gets your heart rate up - this could be brisk walking, dancing or walking up a few flights of stairs. it doesnt have to be structured exercise. https://lnkd.in/gHyFDihm

✅ If you eat fatty comfort foods during stressful times, drinking cocoa may help you bounce back more quickly from the effects of stress, a new study suggests. ✅ Stress takes a toll on the body, at least temporarily, and eating fatty foods before or during stress may cause the body to require more time to recover. ✅ Cocoa contains flavonoids that appear to protect vascular function from temporary impairment caused by stress, which can result in high blood pressure and other issues. ✅ Drinking cocoa may help us recover more quickly from the physiological effects of stress, despite high-fat comfort foods we may turn to in such times. This is according to a new study from the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom. ✅ The authors of the study- which appears in Food and Function - have previously shown that consuming fatty foods may negatively affect vascular function and reduce cortical oxygenation during stressful situation, and inhibit the body's subsequent recovery. ✅ Cocoa contains a flavanol, epicatechin, that relaxes blood vessels in the endothelial cell layer, improving their function and addressing elevated blood pressure, which is a common reaction to stress. https://lnkd.in/dX3viJTD
