There's been a lot of chatter about creatine lately. Creatine isn't manufactured by 100 different supplement companies; it either comes from China or Germany. Check for labels with third-party testing or ensure it's a reliable, established supplement company. The differences between brands are now minimal if third-party testing is done. KRE and HCL are great for strength training and people with sensitive stomachs. They offer similar benefits to monohydrate but require less for the same results, with no bloating or loading phase. Monohydrate is the standard; it will help with recovery and gaining size due to increased water in the body. The best timing is immediately after your workouts, with protein and a small amount of carbs, as your system is ready to absorb effectively. It's not a pre-workout supplement, but consistency is more important than timing, so it's still crucial to take it on non-workout days.
Many quality and health Canada approved brands at Elite Nutrition.

Artichoke Extract Helps Non-
Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Rates of obesity and of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are on the rise.
Artichoke is a powerful natural remedy for the liver. This study put artichoke to
the test against overweight people with NAFLD.
As many as 90% of people who undergo bariatric surgery for obesity have
metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), the new name
for NAFLD.
Previous research has shown that artichoke extract can reduce hepatic stenosis,
the excess fat in your liver, and decrease liver size in nonobese people with
MASLD (J Diagn Med Sonogr. 2022; 38:540-547). This single-blind, placebo-
controlled study included 40 people with MASLD who were overweight and
scheduled for bariatric surgery. Each was given either a placebo or 2,600mg of
artichoke extract standardized for 2.5% cynarine. The study lasted for 6 weeks.
While liver stenosis in the placebo group did not improve, it improved significantly
in the artichoke group. Stenosis severity improved significantly more in the
artichoke group.
While liver size was not reduced in the placebo, it was significantly reduced in the
artichoke group. The size of the liver was significantly smaller in the artichoke
group.
This study continues to establish artichoke as an important herb for liver health.
Specifically, this study suggests that artichoke extract can reduce liver stenosis
and liver size in overweight people with MASLD.

Valerian Is Effective Both Short
Term & Long Term
You already know that valerian works when it comes to helping you sleep. But
you may be surprised both how well it works and how fast!
A recent double-blind, placebo-controlled study found that taking 200mg of
valerian extract, standardized for 2% valerenic acid, significantly improved total
scores on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index as well as time taken to fall asleep,
sleep time, sleep efficiency, daytime drowsiness and refreshed feeling upon
waking when people with mild insomnia took it for 8 weeks. The valerian also
improved anxiety and was safe (Adv Ther. 2023 Oct 30;41(1):246–261).
Now, a reanalysis of the same study has added an exciting new detail. The
valerian not only worked well, it worked fast. Taking valerian helped on the very
first night.
The new analysis found that on the very first night taking the valerian, actual
sleep time improved significantly from 306.09 minutes to 328.93 minutes. In the
placebo group, it went from 339.8 minutes to a significantly worse 300.53. The
difference represents a significant advantage for the valerian.
The two studies demonstrate that valerian works very well and very safely both
after a single dose and in the long run: a significant development in both valerian
and sleep research.

When it Comes to the Heart,
Black Seed Does it All!
You knew that black seed does a lot. But, when it comes to cardiovascular
disease, it seems to do it all!
There have been a huge number of studies on Nigella sativa, commonly known
as black seed, and risk factors for cardiovascular disease. This very high quality
systematic review and meta-analysis put them all together for the most definitive
word yet on black seed and cardiovascular disease. The meta-analysis included
82 high quality, controlled studies of a total of 5,026 people.
Remarkably, it showed that black seed significantly improves a very wide range
of cardiovascular risk factors. When it comes to weight, black seed significantly
improves weight, body fat percentage, body mass index, waist circumference,
muscle mass and waist-to-hip ratio.
When it comes to blood pressure, it significantly improves systolic, diastolic and
mean arterial blood pressure. Black seed also significantly improves total
cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol, ratio of
triglycerides to HDL cholesterol (atherogenic index) and triglycerides.
As for diabetes markers, black seed significantly improves fasting and after
eating blood sugar, long term blood sugar control (HbA1c) and insulin sensitivity.
Markers of inflammation, including C-reactive protein (CRP), high-sensitivity CRP
(hs-CRP), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), interleukin-6 and tumor
necrosis factor-alpha, are all significantly improved with black seed.
Additionally, black seed significantly improves the liver enzymes ALP, ALT and
AST. As for the kidney, it improved creatinine and urea.
It also improved markers of antioxidants and oxidative damage, including MDA,
SOD and total antioxidant capacity.

The most profound effects seemed to occur with doses over 2g that were taken
for at least 8 weeks.
This study provides high quality evidence that black seed may be an important
and versatile herb for cardiovascular health.

New Study Supports Vitamin K
For Your Bones
Though it gets a lot less attention than calcium or vitamin D, without vitamin K,
your bones would be like chalk. This new study helps explain why.
Your bones need calcium, but they also need a hormone called osteocalcin.
Osteocalcin helps attract and bind calcium to your bones. And osteocalcin is
produced by vitamin K.
This new systematic review and meta-analysis of the role of vitamin K included 9
controlled studies of 2,570 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. The form
of vitamin K used was K2, a form of vitamin K that is produced by bacteria in the
gut.
The meta-analysis showed that vitamin K significantly increased osteocalcin
compared to a placebo, indicating that vitamin K can promote bone formation.
Vitamin K also significantly increased bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, a key
marker of bone formation.
This study supports the role of vitamin K in improving bone formation in
postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
