Expert Consensus on the Use of Nutraceuticals in Pregnancy: A Delphi Study

This study is a Delphi-based expert consensus project aimed at developing evidence-informed recommendations for the safe and effective use of nutriceuticals during pregnancy. Despite widespread use of vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements in prenatal care, significant variability exists in clinical practice regarding indications, dosing, timing, and safety monitoring.

Comparative Study of Nutraceuticals vs. Conventional Prophylactic Therapy in the Management of Migraine

Migraine is a common disabling neurological condition that significantly affects quality of life. While traditional prophylactic treatments (e.g., beta-blockers, antiepileptics) are effective, they may be associated with side effects leading to poor adherence. Recent evidence suggests that nutraceuticals like magnesium, riboflavin, and coenzyme Q10 may provide a safer alternative. This study aims to compare the efficacy and tolerability of these two approaches.

The Effects of an Acute Dose of a Betalain-rich Concentrate on Repeated-sprint Cycling Performance and Recovery.

Betalains have well-known antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Recent investigations examining the effects of a betalain-rich concentrate (BRC) on exercise and recovery performance show promise of BRC as an ergogenic aid. To date, no study has examined the effects of a single dose of a BRC on supramaximal performance and recovery. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the effects of an acute dose of BRC on repeated-sprint cycling performance and recovery.
