so there's association with lactate and lactic acid uh acidosis and fatigue so this whole thing was all boiled up in one knot
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

And going back to the first research of Otto Meyerhof, who's one of our heroes in the study of metabolism, he had half a frog, hemicorpus, in a jar without oxygen, without perfusion, and he stimulated the muscles to contract. And as they needed energy to contract, they produced lactate. Eventually, those muscles fatigued and there was a lot of lactate. So, this is the birth of the idea that lactate causes fatigue and that lactic acidosis is a metabolic problem.
