make your strength workout easier posted on august 5 2026 by cookwithkathy could the smell of chocolate wafting through the gym make strength training easier or at least more pleasant researchers examining smell appetite and performance during resistance training found that it might sniffing dark chocolate with a high cocoa content decreased feelings of hunger desire and intention to eat and left trainees feeling fuller not only that participants were able to add more repetitions to their sets sniffing milk chocolate containing less cocoa on the other hand made the experience more pleasant the team said these experimental insights could open pathways into practical interventions in strength training contexts when was the last time you went to the gym and found working out a bit harder than expected leg day in particular can be tough but a new frontiers in physiology study found a promising trick that might make it easier sniffing chocolate exposing moderately trained men to chocolate odors right before and between sets of resistance exercise significantly increased their overall training volume without increasing their perceived exertion said senior author dr mohamed nashrudin bin naharudin an assistant professor at the faculty of sports and exercise science at the university of malaya seeing a substantial increase in repetitions without the athletes feeling like they were exerting themselves any harder is a fascinating psychobiological outcome whiff of cocoa the participant sample consisted of 23 healthy moderately trained men in their early to mid 20s divided in three groups they were provided one of three odor samples liquified dark chocolate containing 90 cocoa liquified milk chocolate containing 60 cocoa or a water sample serving as a control we know olfaction is powerfully wired into the brain s appetite and emotion networks but surprisingly no study has systematically looked at the three way interaction between smell appetite and actual resistance exercise capacity said nashrudin naharudin participants had not eaten for at least 10 hours before performing leg extensions a resistance training exercise that s performed by sitting down and extending the lower legs to lift a weight upwards leg extension performance was assessed before and during their training hunger fullness desire to eat and plans to eat in the near future were reported before the leg workout during the sets only hunger and desire to eat were measured each after 30 seconds of exposure to a scent sample these measurements showed that both chocolate types had clear but different effects on appetite related measures relative to the water control and milk chocolate samples sniffing dark chocolate consistently led to participants reporting less hunger reduced desire and intention to eat and greater fullness before exercise this smell predominantly suppressed appetite by reducing hunger and increasing fullness in contrast those smelling the milk chocolate sample reported higher odor pleasantness compared to dark chocolate and water samples but no changes in hunger or appetite smelling chocolate samples affected not only appetite related measures but also performance sniffing a 90 dark chocolate odor added about 18 more repetitions to participants leg extensions while a 60 milk chocolate odor added about nine repetitions compared to the water control said nashrudin naharudin ready steady eat the researchers think these changes in appetite perception could be related to what we learn about smells from a young age learned cues such as foods we ve eaten before generate expectations about what happens after eating and can cause a shift from hunger toward perceived fullness the dark chocolate scent serves as a learned cue for a rich bitter and highly satiating food which essentially tricks the system into an anticipatory state of fullness said nashrudin naharudin conversely the sweeter milk chocolate scent acts more like a hedonic reward cue enhancing training volume by creating a highly pleasant sensory environment rather than by shifting basic metabolic hunger signals these effects suggest that anticipation of food could have similar effects to its actual consumption particularly because they re observable when people haven t eaten food scents might kickstart the digestive process or trigger changes in body and mind that occur in anticipation of a meal these changes closely mimic some of the psychological and physiological shifts typically brought on by actual eating the authors pointed out that their claims remain inferential as no blood hormones or neural pathways were measured additionally there may have been slight variations in smell intensity between the chocolate samples and the water sample was odorless which could have given participants clues about whether they were part of the control group finally more diverse participant samples are needed to confirm these findings this leads to the question of whether chocolate is the only food that can trigger such responses we don t think chocolate is entirely unique though it is a food cue with incredibly strong universally recognized reward associations nashrudin naharudin concluded although this hasn t been tested yet other foods strongly linked to satiety could show similar effects a person likely needs to find the odor familiar and appealing or at least not repulsive to trigger the psychological shift in appetite that s needed to see a performance boost source frontiers filed under exercise food news and articles study comments off on sniffing chocolate could make your strength workout easier is coffee bad for your heart here s the latest science posted on august 5 2026 by cookwithkathy love coffee you re hardly alone but what is the caffeine in your mug doing to your heart health an american heart association scientific statement recently published in the journal circulation has summed up the latest findings here are highlights is coffee bad for you for most adults drinking up to 400 milligrams of caffeine a day without added sugars or fillers is safe and does not increase cardiovascular risk dr gregory m marcus a professor of medicine at the university of california san francisco school of medicine said in a news release that much caffeine is the equivalent of three to five 8 ounce cups of caffeinated coffee however high doses of caffeine such as those found in energy drinks including energy shots may have harmful effects on the heart and should be avoided said marcus who is also the associate chief of cardiology for research at the university of california san francisco health marcus led the writing group that wrote the statement which details the most recent research primarily on caffeinated coffee and the potential effects of its caffeine on stroke cholesterol coronary heart disease high blood pressure type 2 diabetes heart rhythm issues and other cardiovascular conditions the statement s authors noted that research on caffeine s effects on the cardiovascular system is challenging and that many areas require more study why is caffeine research complicated most studies on caffeine are observational meaning they cannot prove cause and effect also while coffee is the main source of caffeine in most studies the observed effects may be due to other compounds for example some research suggests that other bioactive compounds in coffee may have antioxidant and anti inflammatory properties which may help explain some health benefits even so it s difficult to separate the effects of caffeine from other ingredients added to coffee such as milk cream flavored syrups and sugar latest findings about coffee caffeine and heart health consuming caffeinated coffee without added ingredients was linked to a lower risk of type 2 diabetes heart disease stroke heart failure and some irregular heart rhythms sugar milk or cream probably reduce coffee s potential health benefits and the authors said more research was needed on the effects of these additives the statement also addressed blood pressure caffeinated coffee may affect blood pressure differently depending on how much is consumed in people with healthy blood pressure levels drinking one to three cups a day was associated with an increased risk of developing high blood pressure while drinking more than three cups a day was associated with a lower risk high doses of caffeine such as those from energy drinks can significantly increase blood pressure especially in people who already have high blood pressure type 2 diabetes caffeinated coffee may reduce insulin sensitivity in the short term drinking caffeinated coffee with no flavors or sweeteners regularly also was linked to a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes this may be due to compounds in coffee other than caffeine cholesterol randomized clinical trials the most rigorous and reliable type of study indicate that cafestol a component in both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee was associated with higher levels of low density lipoprotein also known as bad cholesterol cafestol is found in unfiltered coffee such as espresso french press turkish coffee or boiled coffee it s not found in coffee brewed with paper filters or instant coffee heart disease and stroke drinking two to four cups of caffeinated coffee a day was linked to a lower risk of heart disease heart failure and stroke however drinking more than four cups of caffeinated coffee a day may increase the risk of heart failure where the heart can t pump enough blood heart rhythm analyses that use self reported information from participants have found that drinking from one to three cups of caffeinated coffee a day was not associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation or abnormal heart rhythm however caffeinated coffee at that same level may be associated with premature ventricular contractions early beats from the lower chamber of the heart very high doses of caffeine such as those in caffeinated energy drinks or energy shots have been linked to abnormal heart rhythm in people usually considered to have low cardiovascular disease risk such as healthy adults younger than age 30 how much caffeine is in a cup of coffee anyway a regular brewed non specialty coffee typically contains from 9 4 to 20 6 mg of caffeine per fluid ounce energy drink shots may contain three to four times more caffeine than regular coffee what about caffeine in tea and energy drinks while fewer studies have focused on tea than coffee tea has been associated with reduced risk of atrial fibrillation heart failure and stroke similar to caffeinated coffee energy drinks bars gels and caffeine based supplements often contain other added ingredients that may increase the absorption of caffeine may accelerate its effects on the body may raise blood pressure and increase the risk of cardiovascular harm how caffeine affects the body and heart health caffeine consumed through coffee is metabolized by the liver and generally reaches peak concentration for most people within an hour how quickly individuals process caffeine depends on their genetics metabolism age and past caffeine use short term effects of caffeine may include temporary increases in blood pressure heart rate blood sugar and alertness heart palpitations and or sleep disruption also are possible some people may develop a tolerance to higher levels of caffeine does caffeine affect everyone the same way although research suggests that caffeine consumption may be associated with certain cardiovascular benefits for some people it s important to remember that there is no one size fits all strategy for safe caffeine consumption marcus said what may be a reasonable amount for one person could cause unwanted effects such as heart palpitations anxiety or sleep disruption in another he said that s why it s important to pay attention to how your body responds to caffeine and talk with your healthcare team about what is right for you source american heart association filed under drink health news and articles science tagged coffee comments off on is coffee bad for your heart here s
