A New Way to Measure Lactate in Your Body

Lactate is a substance your body makes during exercise or when you're sick. Doctors need to measure it to understand your health. But there's a problem: too much lactate can mess up the tests. Scientists have found a solution. They made a tiny tool, a biosensor, to measure lactate accurately. This

Horses, Lactate, and the Science of Steady Running

Lactate levels in horses can tell us a lot about their endurance and training needs. Scientists have found ways to predict how much lactate a horse can handle during exercise without getting too tired. This is called the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS). To figure this out, researchers put ten te

The Surprising Benefits of Milk Sugar

Lactose, or milk sugar, is more than just a quick energy boost. It plays a big role in our bodies, helping with calcium absorption, which is crucial for strong bones and teeth. Unlike some sugars, lactose is low in cariogenicity, meaning it doesn't cause tooth decay as easily. This makes it a better
