Provided are methods for improving exercise performance and endurance of a mammal, comprising administering to the mammal in need thereof a composition comprising dihydroberberine (DHB), or an analog or derivative thereof, and a physiologically acceptable carrier. DHB in the composition can serve as an antioxidant to defend red blood cells against oxidative stress damage, by scavenging reactive oxygen species generated during to increase the deformability and the survival of red blood cells.

The present invention relates to a composition for enhancing exercise capacity and recovery from fatigue containing fermented and aged noni, coconut sugar or muscovado sugar as an active ingredient, and more specifically, to a composition enhancing exercise capacity and recovery from fatigue, which has the effects of enhancing exercise capacity and inhibiting the accumulation of fatigue substances in blood by increasing glycogen storage in tissue and liver function. The present invention provides a food composition for exercise capacity enhancement and anti-fatigue, which is useful in the food industry. The composition of the present invention enables recovery from fatigue or enhancement of athletic ability to be achieved quickly by promoting the reduction of fatigue substances, and may provide sports drink products, functional food products and pharmaceutical composition products that are effective in enhancing recovery from fatigue and exercise capacity.

A fractionated cannabis concentrate, consumable product containing the fractionated cannabis concentrate, and a method for producing the fractionated cannabis concentrate. The method may include pressing dried cannabis through a first filter having a first pore size of between about 90 and 100 micrometers under a first set of temperature and pressure conditions, collecting a cannabis concentrate released from the dried cannabis and passed through the first filter as a result of the pressing, and fractionating the cannabis concentrate by pressing the cannabis concentrate through a second filter having a second pore size from about 15 to 40 micrometers under a second set of temperature and pressure conditions until a liquid emerges through the second filter leaving a fractionated cannabis concentrate on the second filter. The fractionated cannabis concentrate may be suspended in an edible carrier oil and decarboxylated prior to use in an edible product, tincture or inhalation system.
