通過腸道提高身體機能表現
高強度的運動、在壓力下比賽和獨特的飲食都可能增加運動員的壓力。他們的腸道微生物群可能會改變,也可能會出現腸胃道症狀、失眠、慢性發炎、延遲性肌肉酸痛和腎臟損傷的風險。
有些人已經開始使用益生菌來保持健康和促進恢復。PS128具有抗壓、抗疲勞和抗氧化的特性,使其成為實現身體健康一個令人鼓舞的前景。
在多項安慰劑對照的研究中,台灣的研究人員發現,給予運動員PS128在比賽期間和比賽後都帶來顯著的優勢。其中的優勢包括:
-
提高運動表現
-
更快速的恢復
-
減少發炎指標和氧化壓力
-
增加支鏈胺基酸 (BCAA)

研究摘要
-
類型:雙盲、隨機、安慰劑對照試驗
-
參與者:20名大學生運動員,男性
-
干預:接受爲期 4 週的 PS128 補充劑或安慰劑膠囊
與安慰劑組相比,PS128組表現出明顯更好的耐力(約提高了130%,見下文)、顯著改善腸道微生物群(減少“壞”菌,增加“好”菌)並顯著增加短鏈脂肪酸(SCFAs)水平。
PS128 supplementation (LG) showed significant improvement of about 30% on a treadmill endurance test when compared to a placebo group (PG), *p<0.0035
2019 Nutrients
研究摘要
-
類型:雙盲、隨機、安慰劑對照試驗
-
參與者:34名大學生運動員
-
干預:在完成短跑或完整的鐵人三項之前,服用 PS128 補充劑或安慰劑膠囊連續 3 或 4 週
與安慰劑組相比,PS128組展現出更好的運動表現、減輕了比賽後的氧化壓力和肌肉損傷、減少發炎和增加抗發炎細胞激素並提高了支鏈胺基酸(BCAA)水平。
Creatine kinase (muscle damage marker) levels in full triathlon athletes taking PS128 were significantly less 3 hours after the race versus in the placebo group; *p<0.016
TNF-α (inflammation marker) levels were significantly less post-race in the full triathlon PS128 group versus the placebo group; *p<0.016
INF-γ (inflammation marker) levels were significantly less post-race in the full triathlon PS128 group versus the placebo group; *p<0.016
IL-6 (inflammation marker) levels were significantly less post-race in the full triathlon PS128 group versus the placebo group; *p<0.016
IL-8 (inflammation marker) levels were significantly less post-race in the full triathlon PS128 group versus the placebo group; *p<0.016
Anaerobic capacity peak power (exercise performance) significantly increased after taking PS128 for three weeks when compared to a placebo group; *p<0.05
Anaerobic capacity mean power (exercise performance) significantly increased after taking PS128 for three weeks when compared to a placebo group; *p<0.05
Endurance (exercise performance) of athletes who took PS128 for three weeks was significantly improved versus a placebo group; *p<0.05
