Abstract:: Research shows that Exercise-Associated Menstrual Dysfunction (ExMD) ranges from 6-79% of active women, depending on the sport. The primary contributor to ExMD is hypothesized to be low energy availability or relative energy deficiency in sport, due to insufficient energy intake to match exercise energy expenditure. Because many active women are...

Abstract:: The prevalence of exercise-induced menstrual dysfunction (ExMD) ranges between 6-79% in endurance-trained women and may result from a low energy availability (EA; kcal/kgFFM/d). EA is the energy remaining after planned exercise, which is available for basic physiological processes and daily living activities. One mechanism for energy conservation may be a...

Abstract:: Menstrual dysfunction (MD), possibly due to lower energy availability (EA), is prevalent in active women and associated with unfavorable heath consequences. PURPOSE: To determine if EA improvements in endurance-trained women, using a daily Carbohydrate-Protein supplement (CHO-PRO), will restore menstrual function and improve musculoskeletal health. METHODS: Athletes with MD (ExMD; n=8;...

Abstract:: Exercise increases B-vitamin (B6, B12, folate) dependent metabolic reactions, especially those related to energy production and the rebuilding and repairing of muscle tissue. These same B-vitamins are also important in maintaining low blood levels of homocysteine (Hcy), a cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor. Hcy levels rise when the metabolism of...
