Dr. Richard B. KreiderWebsite Guest Editor. Dietary Nitrate and Nitrite Concentrations in Food Patterns... : Nutrition Today. Dietary nitrate and nitrite are found primarily in green leafy vegetables and root vegetables, such as spinach and beets, and have become popular because of potential cardiovascular health benefits.1 Dietary nitrate is reduced to nitrite in saliva by bacteria on the tongue and further metabolized to nitric oxide (NO) and various nitrogen oxide metabolites in the stomach before being circulated through the blood after absorption.2 In conditions of low oxygen availability such as living at high altitudes and exercise-induced hypoxia in muscle, nitrite can be converted into NO, a free radical gas that serves as a signaling molecule essential for endothelial function and metabolic regulation.
Through these mechanisms, dietary nitrate consumption increases plasma nitrite concentration, reduces resting blood pressure, and improves vascular function.3 A conundrum exists concerning the potential health benefits and risks associated with consumption of dietary nitrate and nitrite. 1. 2. Magnesium and Pain. 2.
Mechanism of Antinociceptive Action of Magnesium Although magnesium has no direct antinociceptive effects, it inhibits calcium ions from entering cells by blocking NMDA receptors, resulting in an analgesic effect. This analgesic effect is related to the prevention of central sensitization caused by peripheral tissue injury [3]. Central sensitization occurs due to the enhancement of neuronal properties in the nociceptive pathways of the central nervous system. It is triggered by repetitive nociceptive afferent inputs and eventually manifests as a prolonged reduction in the pain threshold.

UPDATE: The FDA Warns that Biotin May Interfere with Lab Tests: FDA Safety Communication. Date Issued: November 5, 2019 The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is updating our 2017 safety communication to remind the public, health care providers, lab personnel, and lab test developers that biotin, often found in dietary supplements, can significantly interfere with certain lab tests and cause incorrect results that may go undetected. The FDA wants to make the public and health care providers aware about biotin interference with lab tests so that patients, physicians, and laboratories can work together to help prevent adverse events. As noted in the original safety communication, while biotin in patient samples can cause falsely high or falsely low results, depending on the type of test, the FDA is particularly concerned about biotin interference causing a falsely low result for troponin, a clinically important biomarker to aid in the diagnosis of heart attacks, which may lead to a missed diagnosis and potentially serious clinical implications.
FDA Actions Questions. The Paradox of Coenzyme Q10 in Aging. 3.2.
CoQ10 Supplementation in Aging: Effects on Life span and Longevity The possibility of increasing CoQ10 levels in different organs or tissues through dietary supplementation has been widely explored in recent decades. Studies in rodents [153,154,155,156,157] suggest that CoQ10 administration is able to increase the amounts of CoQ10 in plasma and liver significantly, and in heart, kidney and skeletal muscle moderately. Similarly, different authors have reported increased systemic levels of CoQ10 in humans after supplementing with CoQ10 at different daily doses (100 to 2400 mg) and duration (20 days, 3 or even 16 months) in multiple trials [158,159,160,161,162].
Regarding the safety of CoQ10 supplements, different assessments in human and animals (reviewed by Hidaka et al. [163]) concluded that the endogenous biosynthesis of CoQ10 is not influenced by exogenous inputs. Table 1. 3.3. CoQ10 therapy has also been tested in non-metabolic or cardiovascular diseases.

2017 ODS Dietary Supplement Research Practicum. ISSN position stand: safety and efficacy of creatine supplementation in exercise, sport, and medicine. Since creatine monohydrate became a popular dietary supplement in the early 1990s, over 1,000 studies have been conducted and billions of servings of creatine have been ingested.
The only consistently reported side effect from creatine supplementation that has been described in the literature has been weight gain [5, 22, 46, 78, 91, 92, 112]. Available short and long-term studies in healthy and diseased populations, from infants to the elderly, at dosages ranging from 0.3 to 0.8 g/kg/day for up to 5 years have consistently shown that creatine supplementation poses no adverse health risks and may provide a number of health and performance benefits.
