I posted recently about the ability of dietary stearic acid to reduce abdominal fat accumulation by more than 70%. This study provides some insight as to what the mechanism of action behind that anti-obesity effect may be. The study below found that when stearic acid was fed at a dose of 10% of...

Yet another absolutely great study on inosine. It shows that not only can inosine replenish ATP (as shown in the previous studies I posted) but it can inhibit excessive glycolysis, lower lactate, and dramatically improve oxidative metabolism - effects which are key driver of cell differentiation...

Some bold statements in this study, which combined both in vitro and in vivo models. The HED for methylene blue (MB) was just 0.15mg/kg, which is in the range of 10mg-15mg doses that showed great effectiveness in treating mental disorders like depression and psychosis. As you can see from the...
