 Latest research reported in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition has found that sports drinks specially formulated to aid recovery, are not so special after all! The research involved 12 athletes who cycled for two hours at a comfortable work rate. They consumed an electrolyte sports drink immediately after one exercise session and a bowl of whole grain cereal with non-fat milk after the other. Muscle biopsies and blood tests after each session allowed researchers to compare the effects of the drink and cereal. The whole grain cereal was found to be as good as carbohydrate-based sports drinks in initiating muscle recovery after exercise. So having a healthy, high fibre breakfast not only starts your morning on a sound nutritional note, it also helps repair and recuperate after a sensible exercise-driven start to you day. A sound breakfast as always wins the day! |

 A number of clinical trials have established a clear link between magnesium and the development of migraine. Magnesium is involved in the release of nitric acid, a chemical that dilates blood vessels, as well as a number of migraine related receptors and neurotransmitters. Studies show that up to 50% of migraine sufferers are deficient in magnesium during an acute attack and that the infusion with magnesium gives rapid relief. |
