Lactate's  potential  benefitsLactate as a fuel sourceWhy lactate gets a bad rapReview of a new study published in Current Research Physiology, September 2021: The Effect of Lactate Administration on Mouse Skeletal Muscle Under Caloric RestrictionMethodologyTestingResultsMy thoughts on the  studyWhere more data is neededThis podcast is brought to you by the physiologic flexibility certification course. In the course, I talk about the body's homeostatic regulators and how you can train them. The benefit is enhanced recovery and greater robustness. We cover breathing techniques, CWI, sauna, HIIT, diet, and more. Sign up for the waitlist, and you'll be notified as soon as the course opens.Selected ReferencesMorris, D. (2012).
