Lactic Acid and Running – It’s Not Debatable Anymore

That news that lactate provides large amounts of energy should have been enough to convince runners that lactic acid is a good thing, but the myth stuck around. Runners, coaches and even expert running commentators still called lactic acid a waste product. Nearly every distance running event on television had a commentator talking about lactic acid causing “oxygen debt.” Now we have even more research that proves the value of lactic acid. Two recent studies, one in Denmark and the other in Australia have proven that lactic acid actually fights fatigue and makes your muscles contract more efficiently.

It goes on...

This is where lactic acid comes to the rescue. Both studies showed that accumulating lactic acid is used to diminish the effects of the accumulating potassium ions, help them back inside your muscle cells and restore the function of the CNS signaling system.

I could give you much more... it all works together.

What "science" they taught in schools just a few years ago is now being turned on its head at a quick pace, especially with integrated sciences like quantum biology... integrate some chemistry and a few others in there and they may start understanding a bit.
