The Clean, Zero-Sugar Energy Drink Is Good For More Than Just Physical Performance. It Boosts Brain Function, Too. FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Bizz Energy is a revolutionary new zero-sugar energy drink designed to boost performance through natural ingredients without the use of harmful chemicals or additives. While this is primarily focused on physical activities, the energy supplement's ingredients can also deliver some helpful benefits for the brain. "I designed Bizz Energy to clear my mind as well as boost my physical performance," explains company founder Gavin Jacono. "Sometimes you need to do more than run faster, lift more, or stay awake longer. Sometimes you need that sharp focus that helps you deliver at work or in school." Bizz Energy helps with cognitive function through multiple natural ingredients. For instance, creatine is a safe brain and body amino acid that has been connected to short-term memory improvement when administered orally. L-citrulline has clearly demonstrated benefits for brain function, as well. L-Theanine relieves stress disorders, improves mood, and helps with sleep. Another ingredient with the potential to help with cognition is Turkesterone. While this popular supplement is currently trending in the sports and fitness world for its physical benefits, there are also suggestions that it could aid mental health by helping cope with stress and fatigue. "Including Turkesterone was a big deal for us," says Jacono. "I knew we wanted it in there, but it's a plant-based steroid, so it isn't water-soluble. We invested in extensive research and testing and were able to develop a method to solubilize Turkesterone — it's one of the most unique things about our product." From carefully selected amino acids to soluble Turkesterone, Bizz Energy is packed with natural ingredients designed to deliver a critical dose of energy when needed. The innovative combination of natural ingredients doesn't just apply to physical performance, either. It can be a game-changer when it comes to cognitive function, too, helping to sharpen the mind and create clear focus. About Bizz Energy Bizz Energy was founded by Gavin Jacono.

Healthy diets are rich in antioxidants like amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin C, but exactly how beneficial these micronutrients are for cardiovascular health has long been controversial. Now a new meta-analysis provides some clarity. Healthy diets are rich in antioxidants like amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin C, but exactly how beneficial these micronutrients are for cardiovascular health has long been controversial. Now a new meta-analysis published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology provides some clarity. Researchers systematically reviewed a total of 884 studies available to date on micronutrients taken as dietary supplements and analyzed their data. They identified several micronutrients that do reduce cardiovascular risk -- as well as others that offer no benefit or even have a negative effect. More than 883,000 patients were involved in the combined studies. "For the first time, we developed a comprehensive, evidence-based integrative map to characterize and quantify micronutrient supplements' potential effects on cardiometabolic outcomes," said Simin Liu, MD, MS, MPH, ScD, professor of epidemiology and medicine at Brown University and a principal investigator for the study. "Our study highlights the importance of micronutrient diversity and the balance of health benefits and risks." The findings could be used as the basis of future clinical trials to study specific combinations of micronutrients and their impact on cardiovascular health, he said. Antioxidant supplementation has long been thought to play a role in heart health. That's because these nutrients work to reduce oxidative stress, a known contributor to many cardiovascular diseases. Heart-healthy diets like the Mediterranean diet and the Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) feature foods that are naturally rich in antioxidants. However, results from studies of antioxidant supplements have been inconsistent -- one reason why this approach hasn't yet been widely adopted in preventative cardiology. "Research on micronutrient supplementation has mainly focused on the health effects of a single or a few vitamins and minerals," Liu said. "We decided to take a comprehensive and systematic approach to evaluate all the publicly available and accessible studies reporting all micronutrients, including phytochemicals and antioxidant supplements and their effects on cardiovascular risk factors as well as multiple cardiovascular diseases." The researchers looked at randomized, controlled intervention trials evaluating 27 different types of antioxidant supplements. They found strong evidence that several offered cardiovascular benefit. These included omega-3 fatty acid, which decreased mortality from cardiovascular disease; folic acid, which lowered stroke risk; and coenzyme Q10, an antioxidant sometimes marketed as CoQ10, which decreased all-cause mortality. Omega-6 fatty acid, L-arginine, L-citrulline, Vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, alpha-lipoic acid, melatonin, catechin, curcumin, flavanol, genistein and quercetin also showed evidence of reducing cardiovascular risk. Not all supplements were beneficial. Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and selenium showed no effect on long-term cardiovascular disease outcomes or type-2 diabetes risk. And beta carotene supplements increased all-cause mortality. According to the researchers, the findings point to the need for more personalized, precision-based dietary interventions that involve specific combinations of beneficial supplements. Further study is needed, including large, high-quality interventional trials to investigate the long-term effects of certain micronutrients on health. "Identifying the optimal mixture of micronutrients is important, as not all are beneficial, and some may even have harmful effects," Liu said.
