“A larger randomized-trial meta-analysis also found modest average reductions in BMI, waist circumference, and body-fat percentage, although protocols and populations varied. These averages do not mean that HIIT alone guarantees fat loss.”

“Evidence suggests that lactate mediates some of the benefits of exercise on learning and memory via inducing neuronal BDNF expression. Learn more about the lactate shuttle and its effects on the brain in this episode featuring Dr. George Brooks.”

“Vigorous work produces lactate that can cross the blood-brain barrier and participate in brain energy metabolism. Exercise also raises growth factors such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which support synaptic plasticity and memory-related circuits.”

“Evidence demonstrates that lactate, once considered a metabolic waste product, participates in diverse roles in metabolism, sensing, and signaling under normal and pathological conditions.”

“Obesity In a study in which mice were fed a diet that was high in fat and sugar and received a 400-milligram per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg/bw) nicotinamide riboside supplement every day for one week, the mice gained 60 percent less fat, exhibited improved insulin sensitivity, and demonstrated greater endurance and muscle strength, compared to mice that did not receive the supplement.”

“After 90 minutes, uphill exercise also raised BDNF levels in brain regions linked to memory and learning. The lactate injection showed that blood lactate passed into the brain, reinforcing that exercise-induced increases in blood lactate can influence brain chemistry.”

“A recent study found that supplementing the diets of lactating women with flaxseed oil altered the levels of some omega-3 fatty acids in breast milk, plasma, and red blood cells but not DHA. The study involved seven lactating women who consumed 20 grams of flaxseed oil daily for four weeks.”

“Monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) facilitate the movement of small energy molecules such as lactate and pyruvate into cells. When oxygen levels are low or metabolic demand is high, monocarboxylate compounds can be used instead of glucose for cellular energy.”

“Lactate, once thought to cause muscle fatigue, now shown to be shuttled into other tissues such as the brain where it is used as energy. Lactate also acts as a signaling molecule that can gene expression and has been shown to increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).”
