Main research interests:
Sports nutrition and supplementation – in particular beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyric acid (HMB), sodium bicarbonate, colostrum, caffeine and beta-alanine supplementation, as well as different nutritional interventions (e.g., ketogenic diet, glycemic index-based carbohydrate diets) and their influence on discipline-specific performance, aerobic, and anaerobic physical capacity, exercise metabolism and immunology, training activities, body composition and blood biochemical markers in trained athletes and active individuals; body mass regulation, rapid weight loss, and the fast nutritional recovery before competitions in combat sports and sport disciplines with weight categories.
