The Effects of Spirulina Supplementation on Cardiometabolic Risk Factors: A Narrative Review by Sokary, Sara

“…Spirulina was effective in reducing body weight, body mass index, and waist circumference, with a potential dose-dependent effect. It also decreased interleukin 6, an important biomarker of body inflammation, by inhibiting NADPH oxidase enzyme, and lowering insulin resistance. spirulina supplementation also reduced triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. …”

Heart Rate Variability Analysis Reveals a Non-monotonic Relationship between Humanin Concentration and Cardiac Autonomic Regulation by Feng, Samuel

“…Sympathovagal balance was assessed in 124 healthy participants through heart rate variability (HRV) analysis and compared across changes in HN concentrations divided into quintiles, with values of HN ranging from 64.6 to 343.2 pg/mL. Significant differences included various frequency domain and nonlinear HRV parameters, particularly between first and fourth HN quintiles with p values < 0.001 for recurrence plot analysis (RPA), detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) a1 and Poincaré plot ratio SD1/SD2. …”
