A new study has shown that carbohydrate and protein supplementation strategies may help athletes deal better with the muscle damage that comes from endurance exercise. But they don’t seem to increase runners’ endurance capacity directly.
Endurance athletes can tolerate as much as 120 grams (g) of carbohydrate per hour with no gastrointestinal distress via delivery systems such as liquid, gels, and jelly chew forms, a new study finds.
Supplementation with the branded ashwagandha root extract KSM-66 may boost cardiorespiratory endurance and recovery in healthy athletic adults, while simultaneously help with stress management, says a new study.

Supplementing the diet with krill oil may help maintain normal muscle function by preventing lower circulating concentrations of choline observed during endurance events, according to a Norwegian study.
Supplementation with L. plantarum PS128 may boost athletic endurance and reduce markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in triathletes, suggests a new study from Taiwan.
Combining exercise with a bacterial strain isolated from an Olympic weightlifting gold medalist may synergistically increase endurance compared to training or the probiotic alone, suggests data from a mouse study.
