Casein protein helps muscle growth and recovery, especially with resistance training. One serving of casein protein powder provides about 45% of your daily calcium needs. Consuming too much casein ...

A new discovery may explain why so many people abandon cholesterol-lowering statins because of muscle pain and weakness.

For decades, statins have been the quiet workhorses of cardiology, cutting heart attack and stroke risk for millions while ...

New research has identified the specific biological mechanism behind the muscle dysfunction found in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and further shows that calcium channel blockers can reverse these ...

Researchers engineered mice with a mutation (E3896A) in the RyR1 calcium-binding site, eliminating calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) without affecting depolarization-induced calcium release. The ...

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

Calcium and vitamin D are important for bone health, and these nutrients also play an important role in muscle, nerves, and immune system health. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, although you ...
