Diet is widely recognized to play an essential role in optimal health and performance; however, not everyone can eat a variety of nutritious food due to restrictions or lifestyle considerations.
Vitamins such as A, D, E and K are more easily absorbed when eaten together with fats such as olive oil or fish oil, making incorporating healthy sources of fat into meals crucial.
Reduced Fat Mass
Athletes competing in various sports will likely benefit from adopting strategies that aim to optimize their intakes of macronutrients, micronutrients and fluids. Although individual strategies can enhance performance, evidence supports that adopting multiple approaches simultaneously provides greater advantage than any one alone.
This study demonstrated how increasing beef protein intake could significantly decrease fat mass and glucose clearance rates among male mice fed HF diets; no such changes were observed among LF groups; suggesting that reducing fat content of diet is more essential to improving metabolic dysfunctions brought on by excessive consumption of fat than increasing protein source alone.
Detail analyses were carried out, which examined main effects for sex, pH enhancement (whether non-enhanced or ammonia treated), protein source and diet fat content in both LF and HF groups. Tukey-corrected pairwise comparisons with family-wise error rate of 0.05 were made post hoc pairwise to show that any observed effects from sexual interaction in these studies were independent from protein source or pH enhancement. This revealed that any observed sexual effects in these studies were independent from protein source or enhancement.
