Effects of exercise mode, energy, and macronutrientinterventions on inflammation during military training
(2016)
Load carriage (LC) exercise may exacerbate inflammation during training. Nutritional supplementation may mitigate this response by sparing endogenous carbohydrate stores, enhancing glycogen repletion, and attenuating ...
Military training elicits marked increases in plasmametabolomic signatures of energy metabolism, lipolysis,fatty acid oxidation, and ketogenesis
(2017)
Military training studies provide unique insight into metabolic responses to extreme physiologic stress induced by multiple stressor environments, and the impacts of nutrition in mediating these responses. Advances in ...
Cardiovascular and thermal strain during 3–4 days of a metabolically demanding cold‑weather military operation
(2017)
Background
Cardiovascular (CV) and thermal responses to metabolically demanding multi-day military operations in extreme cold-weather environments are not well described. Characterization of these operations will provide ...
Effects of Supplemental Energy on Protein Balance during 4-d Arctic Military Training
(2016)
Soldiers often experience negative energy balance during military operations that diminish whole-body protein retention, even when dietary protein is consumed within recommended levels (1.5-2.0 g[middle dot]kg-1[middle ...
Sex differences in the physiological response to a demanding military field exercise
(2020)
Purpose
To investigate sex differences in the effect of a military field exercise on physical performance, body composition, and blood biomarkers.
Methods
Measurements were done in 23 male and 12 female conscripts ...
Energy deficit increases hepcidin and exacerbates declines in dietary iron absorption following strenuous physical activity: a randomized-controlled cross-over trial
(2020-11-12)
Background
Strenuous physical activity promotes inflammation and depletes muscle glycogen, which may increase the iron regulatory hormone hepcidin. Hepcidin reduces dietary iron absorption and may contribute to declines ...
Abstracts from The Cold Weather Operations Conference 2021
(2022-03-11)
A common effort for both military and civil healthcare is to achieve knowledge-based health care in cold weather injuries and fatal accidents in harsh arctic environment. The Cold Weather Operations Conference in November ...
Perspectives on resilience for military readiness and preparedness: Report of an international military physiology roundtable
(2018)
Modern warfare operations often occur in volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environments accompanied by physical exertion, cognitive overload, sleep restriction and caloric deprivation. The increasingly ...
Pilotstudie ernæring – test av alternative matprodukter i arktiske feltrasjoner
(2023-03-06)
Flere studier har vist at krevende militære feltøvelser leder til et betydelig energiunderskudd hos soldatene. Soldater inntar daglig omtrent 3000 kcal, selv om energiforbruket kan komme opp i 6000 kcal og de har mer mat ...
Training videos to prevent cold weather injuries
(2023-03-29)
Cold weather injuries (CWIs) are a challenge during military training, exercises and operations in Arctic conditions. Soldier performance in these challenging conditions depends on protective equipment, knowledge, personal ...
