Dr. George Brooks on Lactate Shuttle Theory, Relevance for Traumatic Brain Injury, & More

Dec 3, 2014

“When produced during exercise (especially high intensity workouts like cycling, which shifts metabolism toward glycolysis to more quickly meet the high energetic demands), lactate switches on more than 600 genes involved in muscle adaptation, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis – the process of making new mitochondria – and promotes protein synthesis, which is essential for muscle growth.”

How Creatine Dose Shapes Muscle and Brain Benefits

Nov 10, 2025

“High energy demand is a promising research setting. In a randomized crossover study of 15 healthy adults undergoing 21 hours of sleep deprivation, a single 0.35-gram-per-kilogram dose changed cerebral energy measures and improved selected cognitive outcomes.”

How Exercise-Derived Lactate May Support Brain Health

Dec 13, 2023

“This is a proposed metabolic advantage, not proof of slower brain aging. Small TBI trials found that sodium lactate lowered intracranial pressure more than mannitol in severe TBI and improved cognitive scores more than 3% sodium chloride in mild TBI.”
