Introduction We all know someone who eat like a horse yet remains as skinny as a rake, while one of your other friend’s seem to pile on the pounds just by thinking about food. At the heart of the difference is metabolism (the sum of the chemical reactions occurring in the body at any given time).… Read More
Research Paper Title Vitamin D Deficiency and Its Influence on Bone Metabolism and Density in a Brazilian Population of Healthy Men. Abstract Vitamin D supplementation is universal for postmenopausal women, but not for elderly men, in whom osteoporosis is also commonly neglected. This study aimed to evaluate vitamin D deficiency and its association with secondary… Read More
“A primeval version of the metabolic processes that all life uses to survive could have arisen spontaneously on Earth in the absence of enzymes, according to a new study. This suggests that key parts of metabolism are older than life itself and could have emerged easily on early Earth. Metabolism describes the complex network of chemical reactions that enable organisms… Read More
Research Paper Title Vitamin B12 Deficiency. Abstract Vitamin B12 is an essential cofactor that is integral to methylation processes important in reactions related to DNA and cell metabolism, thus a deficiency may lead to disruption of DNA and cell metabolism and thus have serious clinical consequences. Intracellular conversion of vitamin B12 to two active coenzymes, adenosylcobalamin in mitochondria and methylcobalamin in… Read More
Research Paper Title Perceived Exertion and Heart Rate Models for Estimating Metabolic Workload in Elite British Soldiers Performing a Backpack Load-carriage Task. Background Identifying field measures to estimate backpack load-carriage work intensity in elite soldiers is of interest to the military. Methods This study developed rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and heart rate models to… Read More
Research Paper Title Effects of Active, Passive or No Warm-up on Metabolism and Performance during High-intensity Exercise. Background The aim of this study was to determine the influence of type of warm-up on metabolism and performance during high-intensity exercise. Methods Eight males performed 30 s of intense exercise at 120% of their maximal power output… Read More
