FOR THE TIRED PEOPLE: Some new research about Chronic + ADHD(inattentive) related fatigue, and BCAAs

[DISCLAIMER // I AM NOT A DOCTOR. I AM NOT A MEDICAL PRACTITIONER. I AM NOT A DIETICIAN. I'm just a big tired nerd with way too much time on my hands who likes science. I am however, sharing this because this could potentially help others and BCAAs are already safe for human consumption, widely used and easily accessible. If you are uncertain about adding BCAAs to your diet please talk to your doctor first. There are also some medications which interact negatively with BCAA's. Do your research. Also generally be careful about taking medical advice from the internet! ]

I was going to post about something else but I went down the rabbit hole of explaining this study I read and decided that no, this needed it's own thing or it's gonna be a mile long.

So in one of my usual weekly fatigue breakdowns where I was scraping the internet for any kind of information that might point out something I've SURELY missed to explain why I feel the way I do, I stumbled across this study published last year (2022) -

[ The relationship between central fatigue and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder of the inattentive type ]

The TL;DR on the paper - our previous assumptions about the tryptophan-serotonin system might be wrong (tryptophan being the precursor for a bunch of stuff, including melatonin which is the sleepy chemical - aka why people say drink warm milk before bed to help sleep, that's tryptophan) what was previously assumed was reducing tryptophan = bad because it could affect serotonin production.

Testing in rats (so grain of salt here) indicated that higher levels of tryptophan =/= higher levels of serotonin and when reducing the level of free tryptophan in the bloodstream it returned to baseline. High levels of tryptophan were associated with fatigue and inattention, and rats on a tryptophan deficient diet by contrast took longer to reach a state of exhaustion. I'm skipping over a bunch of stuff but basically - research is now pointing to both Chronic Fatigue and ADHD related fatigue being related to Central Nervous System Fatigue which up until now, has only really been associated with the fatigue athletes experience when exercising really hard (now just picture me doing jack shit and feeling like that every day. Yeah). I've only just stared to see bits and pieces pop up about this recently but nothing in relation to this tryptophan study.

Anyway, the thing about BCAAs: BCAAs (Branched Chain Amino Acids) are currently used to reduce the uptake of tryptophan in the brain for better performance in athletes, help with reduction of exercise fatigue (CNS fatigue) and muscle building. You can pretty easily find BCAA's added to protein-shakes or in it's own kind of supplement. It also occurs naturally in some foods (Beef, Chicken, Eggs, Lentils, Chickpeas, Brown Rice etc.) so it is absolutely safe to consume. It's also generally fairly affordable (especially compared to the lengthy process of treatment + medications that might not even work and you have to keep changing them, yes I am talking from personal experience).

Again, this is all very new and absolutely needs so much more research because up until now, no one has really been sure what causes Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but tests have shown that those suffering CFS demonstrate similar activation of their muscles as fatigued athletes - as in they could activate them but not to their full capacity. This connection is only considered 'possible' and it might take a good few years before we can say anything with certainty.

But as an extremely tired bitch who is extremely tired of being extremely fucking tired, I am sharing this because it's easy to get, safe, and affordable and if you're like me you're about ready to try anything. And it's not another goddamn pill (I'm on 14 a day).

Also for the ADHDers specifically: protein rich diets are usually advised for us because it helps with the metabolism of stimulants, and can help with softening medication crashes when they wear off. So adding a protein shake with BCAAs to your morning routine might be a good idea. Or just any protein shake in general.

There can be side effects to taking BCAAs, but it is considered rare and this depends entirely on the person. Cross check existing medications, talk to your doc etc. if you are not 100% certain adding BCAAs to your diet is possible. Stay safe peeps.

Urara SSR

DELIGHT

Part 1

Roka: The event was a huge success ☆

Takeru: I'm relieved to see our customers leave the store satisfied. 

Urara: Tch….

I couldn't care less about their satisfaction or whatsoever, but one thing for sure, I don’t enjoy being dragged to this tedious event one bit. All I wanted to say now was, “Just let me finish cleaning and leave already.”

Akehoshi: I'll put new garbage bags here~

Then... Should I clean the counter?

Roka: Oh, Urara already did that! Hasn’t it become so sparkly?

Akehoshi: Oh, you're right. Urara-kun's cleaning technique is still as fast and thorough as ever.

Urara: You guys are just too damn slow.

Roka: True, if we worked a little faster, everyone could go home early and be happy.

Let me help you!

Urara: Hold it. Roka, don't move even an inch. You’ll just give me extra work.

Roka: Fufufu. Even I can wipe a table.

Now, check out my elegant art of table-wiping!

Roka getting all worked up gave me a bad feeling.

Takeru: Ah, be carefu-

Roka: Wahhhhh!!!

Sure enough, he knocked over the glass on the table and splashed water in every single direction.

Urara: Tch…………………..

Roka: I'm really sorry, Urara……

Takeru: I’m saying this for your own good, but Roka, you should listen to Urara and behave yourself.

Roka: Now I’m sad...

Urara: (What kind of reaction is that?)

Once Roka had quieted down, the work went smoothly without a hitch.

Akehoshi: It's finally over.

Roka: Good job, guys. It looks even prettier than before the event!

So, how about we all go grab something to eat after this?

Akehoshi: So it’s your treat?

Roka: That goes without saying!

Urara: …….

Takeru: Oh. Urara, are you heading back now?

If you're not in a hurry, come join us. It's getting late. Aren’t you hungry?

Urara: ...Who the hell's gonna go with you?

(Leave me out of it if you’re just gonna play around.)

Roka: It’ll be even more fun if you come with us.

Akehoshi: Well, you can come again whenever you want.

Ignoring the murmuring I could hear behind my back, I left the store.

Part 2

Urara: (Now, what to eat...)

As soon as I got back, I took out the leftovers from the bento shop from the refrigerator. I had initially planned to eat this yesterday in place of the meal provided, but….. It was left like this until now because Roka just had to bring an extra-large gift while we were preparing for the cafe event.

Urara: (Is it nearing the expiry date?)

…………

But even so, if I think it is edible, then it is edible. So I popped it in the microwave. I put the warmed side dish in my mouth along with white rice from the packet. However, the flavor of the fermented side dishes only added to the unsatisfying taste. 

The next day—. After a longer run than usual, I decided to buy a drink from the first vending machine I saw to hydrate myself.

Urara: (...I prefer barley tea over water….. Or maybe I should go for a sports drink.)

(Should I try the one that said it contained BCAA...)

Child: Ughh... I'm thirsty...

Urara: ……

I turned around to the sound of weeping and saw a mother holding her child, coming this way in a panic.

Mother: Alrighty, just wait a moment, okay?

Urara: ……

I put away the coins I had taken out and left. Not long after, they arrived at the vending machine and bought a drink without any hesitation.

Mother: Here, apple juice. Let's go sit on the bench and drink it.

Child: Okay.

Urara: (.....The coast is clear.)

After watching them leave, I went back to buy a drink.

Urara: (BCAA.)

……….

(Jackpot, I get a freebie.)

Since I got lucky today, I chose a PET plastic bottle of tea, and shoved it into my pocket.

Urara: Hmm…..

(it's kind of troublesome to run with this in my pocket.) 

Part 3

On the way home after a run.

Urara: (Still got nothing to eat. I should go grab something.)

The bento shop I know is just a stone's throw away. Just when I thought of going there….

A sprinkle of rain started to fall.

Urara: (Huh? It’s not in the forecast, is it?)

Bento shop employee: Welcome.

Urara: …….

As I entered the porch, the familiar voice of a familiar employee called out. I looked up at the sky, and the rain had already let up, almost as if it had never happened.

Urara: (So it came and went, just like that?)

I compared the bento sample with the daily menu written behind the cash register.

Urara: (The manager's recommendation is “Pork shabu with plum shiso sauce.”)

(For the daily special, it’s "Mackerel Nanban Bento")

……..

Mackerel Nanban Bento with tartar sauce.

Bento shop employee: Right away!

Bento shop employee: Sorry to keep you waiting. Here, your Mackerel Nanban Bento.

I put the money and point card on the counter.

Bento shop employee: If you come when it rains, you get double points. Here. 

Urara: ...The rain’s already stopping.

Bento shop employee: Fufu. Even if it’s just for a brief moment, a rainy day is a rainy day at the end of the day.

…...Oh, you've saved up some points already. Want to exchange them for some freebie croquettes?

Urara: If that’s all right….

Bento shop employee: All right, I'll put some freshly fried ones in your bag.

I took my meal and turned away.

Bento shop employee: Please come again~

Urara: ……

I placed the bento I bought, along with, and the croquettes and tea I had unexpectedly gotten on the table.

Urara: (Should I eat the croquettes before they get cold?)

It’s good.

The balance between the batter and the potatoes made me unconsciously let out a voice.

Ring Ring

Urara: ……Kamiya?

Kamiya: "Oh, hello, Urara. We're having some drinks at the dorm after this, do you want to join?"

Urara: Not a chance.

Kamiya: "Huh? Did something good happen?"

Urara: Where did that come from?

Kamiya: "Hmm. Just a hunch?"

Urara: "Shut your trap.”

Urara: …….

I put my phone down and took another bite. Though it had started to cool, it was still delicious.

TL Note: BBCA = Branched Chain Amino Acid, PET = Polyethylene terephthalate

Hi 💖 so last weekend I went on a trip to Germany with my beautiful mutuals and my gf and OBVIOUSLY we had to check if they had any energy drinks we hadn't tried yet. They had SO MANY. Brands we had never heard of before! Disgusting flavours! Beautiful packagings! For a couple of days, we had it all.

Here is us trying to fit everything in our bags. So I'll be doing these rapid fire because I have so many of them. Here are the first 6:

Booster Original Energy Drink XXL: A beautiful proposition. The packaging immediately caught my eye, it looks like a can of washing powder, it looks like Vanish Oxi Action, it looks like detergent. I love it! The taste is nothing surprising but a very nice take on the classic energy drink favour. The price-performance ratio is great, this was 79cents!! Germany!!! 4/5 stars, would definitely buy again if it was readily available. A staple.

Gönrgy Blueberry Coconut: First of all the name sucks. Right under the name it says "G stands for Gönnen" which is?? If you have to literally spell out what the name of your brand refers to, it sounds like you aren't off to a great start?? It also sounds stupid. The packaging looks like they were going for something different, trying to reach a new audience, but this just is not swag. Yeah the colour is nice, but it doesn't make up for the fact that the flavour is terrible, blueberry does NOT pair well with coconut, and the both of them obviously pair terribly with the energy drink flavour. The whole thing tasted like soap, the blueberry was barely there, and this was a very rare DNF for us. 0/5 stars, an epic fail.

Flying Power X-Treme Watermelon: nothing to write home about. It wasn't bad, but didn't taste of watermelon at all, and considering Monster and Rockstar both already offer decent watermelon flavours, you can't just stand there and offer nothing new to the game. The ingredients revealed it was mostly concentrated apple flavoured, which explains a lot. 2.5/5 stars, already forgot about it.

dm's Sportness BCAA Drink: a scam. I mean it was good, and tasted like lime lemonade, but it really looked like an actual energy drink but it actually didn't contain any taurine 😭 I feel betrayed. It still gave us plenty of B6 and Niacin, which is always nice. 3/5 stars, thanks for trying.

(you will notice a Flying Power Zero in the background, I won't review it because after trying it we're suspecting it to be the exact same recipe as the Golden Force but with another name and packaging 🙄)

Black Cat Energy Drink: An absolute slay. First of all I love when they have to find new alpha male animals to use for new brands since bull, tiger, rhino, gorilla, dragon and scorpio are already taken. This drink is the absolute winner of our German selection so far. No stupid novelty flavour, no crazy over the top carbonation experiences, just a beautiful energy drink flavour, perfectly executed. Perfect sweet to sour ratio, perfect carbonation, beautiful can. This drink has what every energy drink wants. It's an instant classic for me. It's got a ridiculous amount of B12, B6, B5 and Niacin, it's got a black cat on it, it's sexy, it's a winner's drink. To me, it's up there with the Rockstar Energy Original. If I was German, this would be my daily routine. 5/5 stars, a true alpha male drink for the whole family.

And that's it for now! 💪💯🚀 the grind never stops!

Boost Your Fitness and Performance with the Right Supplements

In the pursuit of improved fitness and performance, many athletes and fitness enthusiasts turn to supplements to give them an edge. While a balanced diet should always be the foundation, certain supplements can complement your training regimen and help you reach your goals faster. Let’s explore some of the most effective supplements for enhancing fitness and performance.

1. Protein Powders

Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth, making it a cornerstone of any fitness program. Protein powders, such as whey, casein, and plant-based options like pea or hemp protein, offer a convenient way to increase your protein intake. They can be consumed as shakes or added to smoothies, providing a quick and easy source of high-quality protein.

2. Creatine

Creatine is one of the most researched supplements for improving strength and power. It works by increasing the body’s stores of phosphocreatine, which helps regenerate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of cells. This can lead to improved performance during high-intensity activities like weightlifting and sprinting.

3. Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs)

BCAAs, including leucine, isoleucine, and valine, are essential amino acids that play a crucial role in muscle protein synthesis. Supplementing with BCAAs can help reduce muscle breakdown during exercise, enhance recovery, and promote muscle growth.

4. Beta-Alanine

Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid that combines with histidine to form carnosine, a compound that helps buffer acid in muscles during high-intensity exercise. By increasing muscle carnosine levels, beta-alanine supplementation may delay fatigue and improve endurance during activities like sprinting and interval training.

5. Caffeine

Caffeine is a well-known stimulant that can enhance performance in various ways. It increases alertness, reduces perceived exertion, and can improve endurance by stimulating the release of adrenaline and mobilizing fatty acids for energy. Caffeine can be consumed in supplement form or obtained from sources like coffee and tea.

6. Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil supplements, have anti-inflammatory properties that can benefit athletes by reducing exercise-induced inflammation and promoting faster recovery. Additionally, omega-3s support cardiovascular health, which is crucial for overall fitness and performance.

7. Vitamin D

Vitamin D plays a vital role in bone health, muscle function, and immune function, making it important for athletes and active individuals. Many people have suboptimal levels of vitamin D, especially those who live in northern latitudes or spend limited time outdoors. Supplementing with vitamin D can help ensure adequate levels for optimal performance and overall health.

8. Electrolytes

Electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium are essential for hydration, muscle function, and nerve signaling. During intense exercise, especially in hot conditions, electrolyte losses through sweat can impair performance and increase the risk of cramping. Electrolyte supplements or sports drinks can help replenish these crucial minerals and maintain electrolyte balance.

9. Nitric Oxide Boosters

Nitric oxide (NO) is a molecule that dilates blood vessels, increasing blood flow to muscles and improving nutrient and oxygen delivery. Supplements containing ingredients like citrulline and beetroot extract can enhance NO production, leading to better endurance and performance during workouts.

Conclusion

Supplements can be valuable tools for enhancing fitness and performance when used appropriately alongside a well-rounded diet and training program. However, it’s essential to choose high-quality supplements, stay within recommended dosages, and consult with a healthcare professional or nutritionist if you have any concerns or underlying health conditions. With the right combination of supplements and dedication to your fitness goals, you can maximize your potential and achieve the results you desire.

Title: Weekend Fitness Warriors: Boost Your Performance and Recover Like a Pro

Weekends are the perfect time to break free from the grind and focus on what really matters: your fitness goals. Whether you're hitting the gym, going for a run, or joining a weekend fitness class, you want to make the most of your weekend workouts. However, as a "Weekend Fitness Warrior," it can be challenging to push yourself to the limit without feeling exhausted or burned out by Monday. To help you make the most of your weekend fitness sessions, it’s essential to support your body with the right nutrients and supplements.

In this blog post, we'll explore key supplements and substances designed to enhance your performance, recovery, and overall fitness results. These active ingredients will not only help you perform at your best but also help you recover faster so you can go back for more next weekend.

1. Creatine – The Power-Boosting Compound

Creatine is one of the most well-researched and effective supplements for anyone looking to boost strength and power. It works by replenishing your muscles' ATP (adenosine triphosphate) stores, which are your body's primary energy currency during intense physical activity. By increasing ATP availability, creatine allows you to push harder, lift heavier, and power through your weekend workout with more intensity. Active Substance: Creatine Monohydrate. Recommended Dosage: 5 grams per day (can be taken before or after a workout). Why It Works: Creatine helps increase your power output during short bursts of high-intensity exercise, making it perfect for weightlifting, sprinting, or HIIT workouts.

2. BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) – The Muscle Recovery Essentials

BCAAs, which include leucine, isoleucine, and valine, are essential amino acids that help with muscle repair and recovery. They play a vital role in reducing muscle soreness after intense workouts and preventing muscle breakdown. Taking BCAAs before or during your workout can help you train longer and harder without experiencing significant muscle fatigue or soreness. Active Substance: Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine. Recommended Dosage: 5–10 grams before or during your workout. Why It Works: BCAAs promote muscle protein synthesis, reduce muscle damage, and accelerate recovery—helping you feel ready for your next fitness challenge.

3. Pre-Workout – The Energy and Focus Amplifier

To maximize your performance during your weekend workouts, a pre-workout supplement can be a game-changer. Pre-workouts often contain ingredients like caffeine, beta-alanine, and nitric oxide boosters that help enhance focus, endurance, and overall performance. Caffeine, for example, increases alertness and energy levels, while beta-alanine buffers lactic acid build-up, allowing you to train harder for longer periods. Active Substances: Caffeine, Beta-Alanine, L-Citrulline. Recommended Dosage: 1 scoop (follow product instructions, usually 20–30 minutes before exercise). Why It Works: Pre-workout supplements give you the boost you need to power through your toughest workouts, reduce fatigue, and improve your focus, so you can get the most out of every set, rep, and lap.

4. L-Carnitine – The Fat-Burning and Endurance Enhancer

L-carnitine is a naturally occurring compound that helps your body convert fat into usable energy. By transporting fatty acids into your cells’ mitochondria, it improves your ability to burn fat for fuel, which is especially beneficial for long-duration cardio workouts like running or cycling. If you want to improve endurance while torching fat during your weekend workouts, L-carnitine is a must-have. Active Substance: L-Carnitine Tartrate. Recommended Dosage: 500–2,000 mg per day (usually 30 minutes before exercise). Why It Works: L-carnitine helps enhance endurance by improving fat metabolism, allowing you to sustain energy over longer workouts and boost fat loss during cardio.

5. Collagen – The Joint and Skin Supporter

If you're putting your body through intense weekend workouts, it’s essential to support your joints, muscles, and connective tissue. Collagen, the most abundant protein in the body, helps repair damaged tissues, improve joint function, and maintain healthy skin. Supplementing with collagen can reduce joint pain and stiffness, especially after heavy lifting or intense cardio sessions. Active Substance: Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides. Recommended Dosage: 10 grams per day (typically taken post-workout or as part of a morning routine). Why It Works: Collagen supports joint health, reduces post-workout soreness, and aids in muscle recovery, ensuring you feel better and move with ease after your fitness sessions.

6. Electrolytes – The Hydration Restorers

During high-intensity workouts, you lose essential electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and magnesium through sweat. If not replenished, this can lead to dehydration, cramping, and fatigue. Electrolyte supplements help you maintain hydration, restore balance, and avoid these issues, keeping you energized and ready to go. Active Substances: Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium. Recommended Dosage: Follow product instructions, typically 1–2 servings during or after exercise. Why It Works: Electrolytes help maintain proper fluid balance and nerve function, ensuring that you stay hydrated and energized throughout your workout.

Conclusion: Gear Up for Success as a Weekend Fitness Warrior

As a Weekend Fitness Warrior, you want to make every workout count. With the right supplements, you can improve your performance, recovery, and overall fitness, all while preventing injury and boosting endurance.

Sculpt Your Dream Body with a Toning Workout: The Best Supplements to Boost Your Results

Toning workouts are all about transforming your body — building lean muscle, burning fat, and defining every curve. Whether you’re using resistance bands, dumbbells, or your body weight, toning exercises help you build strength, improve muscle endurance, and boost overall fitness. But to really maximize your results and speed up the process, the right active substances can make all the difference.

Incorporating specific supplements into your routine can help support muscle growth, burn fat, improve recovery, and keep your energy levels high. Ready to sculpt your body faster and more efficiently? Here are the top active substances that will fuel your toning workouts and help you achieve your fitness goals.

1. L-Carnitine – The Fat Burner

L-Carnitine is one of the most popular supplements for anyone looking to shed fat while toning their body. It plays a crucial role in transporting fatty acids into your cells to be used as fuel, helping you burn fat during exercise. As you tone, L-Carnitine ensures that your body is efficiently burning stored fat for energy, aiding in fat loss without sacrificing muscle mass.

💊 Dosage: 500–2,000 mg per day, taken 30 minutes before your workout for maximum fat-burning benefits. ✅ Result: Enhanced fat metabolism, more energy, and faster toning progress.

Supplementing with BCAAs helps improve muscle protein synthesis, so you preserve lean muscle mass while losing fat.

💊 Dosage: 5–10 grams before or during your workout. ✅ Result: Increased muscle retention, reduced muscle soreness, and enhanced endurance during toning workouts.

3. Beta-Alanine – The Endurance Booster

Toning workouts often involve high repetitions and short rest periods, which can cause muscle fatigue quickly. Beta-Alanine is an amino acid that helps buffer lactic acid build-up in the muscles, which delays the onset of fatigue. This means you can push harder for longer during your workout, getting more reps in and maximizing your results.

💊 Dosage: 3.2–6.4 grams daily, split into two doses for optimal performance. ✅ Result: Reduced muscle burn, improved endurance, and longer, more effective toning workouts.

4. Collagen – The Joint and Skin Supporter

As you tone your muscles, don’t forget to support your joints and skin! Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is vital for joint health, skin elasticity, and muscle recovery. When combined with resistance training, collagen helps improve the strength and flexibility of your tendons and ligaments, ensuring that your joints stay protected from stress during your toning workouts.

💊 Dosage: 5–10 grams of hydrolyzed collagen daily, preferably post-workout. ✅ Result: Stronger joints, healthier skin, and faster recovery between workouts.

5. Caffeine – The Energy Igniter

Toning workouts require mental focus and physical energy to push through those final sets. Caffeine is a well-known performance enhancer, helping increase energy levels, improve focus, and reduce perceived effort. Whether you're training early in the morning or need a mid-afternoon boost, caffeine can give you the energy to power through even the toughest toning sessions.

💊 Dosage: 100–200 mg, about 30–45 minutes before your workout. ✅ Result: Increased alertness, enhanced performance, and the stamina to finish your toning routine strong.

6. Creatine – The Strength Builder

Creatine is often associated with bulking, but it’s also beneficial for toning. By increasing your strength and power output during resistance exercises, creatine allows you to push your muscles harder. The result? More defined muscles, increased muscle endurance, and greater workout efficiency. While creatine may not directly burn fat, it helps you perform more intense workouts that result in better muscle tone.

💊 Dosage: 3–5 grams daily, preferably after your workout. ✅ Result: Enhanced strength, improved performance, and more efficient toning.

7. CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) – The Fat Metabolizer

CLA is a fatty acid that has been shown to help with fat loss while preserving lean muscle mass. It's perfect for toning workouts as it supports the body’s natural fat-burning processes, helping to reduce body fat percentage while promoting muscle definition.

💊 Dosage: 1,000–3,000 mg per day, split into two doses with meals. ✅ Result: Reduced body fat, enhanced muscle tone, and increased metabolic efficiency.

Sculpt Your Body with Confidence

Whether you’re looking to tighten up, build lean muscle, or simply improve overall body composition, these active ingredients can help you achieve your goals faster. From fat-burning L-Carnitine to strength-building Creatine, each supplement plays a role in maximizing your toning workouts.
