Abstract:
Recently, there has been increasing interest in exploring the effects of royal jelly on athletic performance. This systematic review examined existing literature on the effects of royal jelly on athletic performance. We conducted a detailed search in the Institute for Scientific Information, PubMed/Medline, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases. We meticulously selected nine studies from an initial pool of 97 studies up to June 2024. Our findings will provide evidence supporting the beneficial effects of royal jelly in reducing blood lactate levels and enhancing athletic performance. Additionally, royal jelly does not affect muscle damage or its associated markers. However, the influence of royal jelly on athletes' body composition measurements remains inconclusive, highlighting the need for further research.

Endurance exercises
Endurance exercises involve running, swimming, or cycling, which require repetitive movements with low force output. When a person engages in endurance exercise, a few noticeable changes occur in their skeletal muscles. For instance, the number of capillaries...
Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
