lactose/fatigue

Lactose and food intolerance cause a wide range of gut and systemic symptoms, including gas, gut pain, diarrhoea or constipation, severe headaches, severe fatigue, loss of cognitive functions such as concentration, memory and reasoning, muscle and joint pain, heart palpitations, and a variety of

Resilin is an elastic protein with outstanding material properties: high resilience and a very high fatigue lifetime. We are interested in the production of resilin-like proteins which can be photo-chemically cross-linked to form rubbery biomaterials to be used in a variety of industrial and

BACKGROUND The importance of lactose malabsorption in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is not well defined and these patients often complain of lactose intolerance. To objectively measure lactose malabsorption, a hydrogen breath test (HBT) can be performed, but a discrepancy emerges between the

OBJECTIVE We examined the effects of dietary chlorella ingestion on oxidative stress and fatigue symptoms in healthy men under resting and fatigue conditions. METHODS We conducted a double-blind, parallel-arm controlled study. Twenty-seven healthy male volunteers (mean age, 35.4±10.4 years) were

Meteorism, abdominal spasms, diarrhea, casually obstipation, flatulence and nausea are symptoms of fructose malabsorption (FIT) and/or lactose intolerance (LIT), but are also symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Therefore these diseases should be considered primarily in patients with

BACKGROUND The efficacy of dietary supplements in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is uncertain, with conflicting evidence. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of a polynutrient supplement on fatigue and physical activity of patients with CFS. METHODS Prospective randomized placebo-controlled, double-blind

To investigate the impact of acute salbutamol intake on performance and selected hormonal and metabolic variables during supramaximal exercise, 13 recreational male athletes performed two 30-second Wingate tests after either placebo (PLA, lactose) or salbutamol (SAL, 4 mg) oral administration,

Fourteen men were studied to determine the combined effects of two altitudes--388 and 3,810 m or 1,274 and 12,500 ft--and three preparations--lactose placebo, Compound A (Actified, and Compound B (Dristan). Subjects reported least attentiveness with A and greatest with placebo. Fatigue increased

OBJECTIVE To analyze the effects of hydrocortisone (40 mg. p.o.) administered to emergency physicians on their first night shift following a series of day shifts. METHODS Prospective, double-blinded internal crossover study on objective and subjective parameters. Each participant was studied for a

The original central fatigue hypothesis suggested that fatigue during prolonged exercise might be due to higher 5-HT activity. Therefore, we examined the effects of acute administration of a selective 5-HT reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) on performance and thermoregulation. Eleven healthy trained male

BACKGROUND Working night shift (reverse cycle) presents problems to personnel due to the difficulty in maintaining alertness during the nighttime hours. When the shift must be worked several consecutive nights, a cumulative sleep debt is created. Appropriate countermeasures are required to help

An exercise for medical students was designed to illustrate one method of setting up a clinical trial and incidentally to demonstrate some effects of placebos. Twelve groups of four students participated: one in each group was the "recorder", the other three (volunteers) were randomly assigned to

BACKGROUND The effect of ibuprofen on pain tolerance during exercise is controversial, and its effects on endurance performance have been poorly investigated. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of prophylactic administration of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen on the time until the

Food and symptom diaries were used to identify problem foods for each of 164 patients with chronic medical problems such as headache, fatigue, congestion, abdominal pain, and sinus problems. A statistical analysis related the total load of 90 biologic families, as well as caffeine, alcohol, and
