How we read the research
Filtered for what actually holds up.
The same standards we use to decide what goes into a Blonyx product.
Research on people who train
We lead with human studies in athletic populations, not animal or lab-bench results.
Honest about the evidence
Every summary says how strong the findings are, including when a result is early or small.
Plain language
No jargon or hype. A few lines per study, written for athletes rather than scientists.
What it means for you
Each summary ends with the practical takeaway for your training, fuelling or recovery.
Written by the Blonyx team and founder Rowan Minnion, an athlete and exercise physiologist.
