Natural product supplementation and high-performance in athletes: The potential of the dipeptide balenine


Author(s): Valeh Vejdaniroshan Fumiko Takenoya Junko Shibato Seiji Shioda and Randeep Rakwal

Abstract:
Fatigue affects athletes and is also a critical topic of study in sports science and medicine research. Fatigue affects performance and the recovery process is highly dependent on both the physical and mental state of the athlete. Over-training due to pressure to perform in combination with fatigue compounds the situation and results in burn-out or even worse a lack of motivation depression and even suicide. Stress and anxiety affect the recovery process ultimately performance. Research on performance enhancement has attracted attention over a long time. And understandably so as winning in sports is prized and a source of national pride for both as an individual (athlete) and society. Technology techniques and the role of nutrition (supplementation) cannot be underestimated when it comes to an athlete's performance state i.e. to be able to perform to the highest level during a competition. This particular research focuses on the importance of nutrition in context of human-high performance and looks at a new nutritional component the dipeptide balenine (from whale meat extract) as a potential nutraceutical or ergogenic aid in sports i.e. athlete performance.
