Performance in Female Athletes: Supporting Muscle & Joint Health During the Menstrual Cycle with OptiMSM®
Despite representing nearly half of the athletic population, women remain significantly underrepresented in sports science research. This gap has limited our understanding of how hormonal fluctuations influence athletic performance, recovery, and joint health throughout the menstrual cycle.
At this featured session, Balchem will present emerging research exploring the potential role of OptiMSM® in supporting female athletes during different phases of the menstrual cycle and discuss how these findings may help shape the future of women’s performance nutrition.
