145 CHAPTER 2. NUTRITION AND MUSCLES Overview In this chapter, we will show you how to find studies dedicated specifically to nutrition and muscles. Finding Nutrition Studies on Muscles The National Institutes of Health’s Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) offers a searchable bibliographic database called the IBIDS (International Bibliographic Information on Dietary Supplements; National Institutes of Health, Building 31, Room 1B29, 31 Center Drive, MSC 2086, Bethesda, Maryland 20892-2086, Tel: 301-435-2920, Fax: 301-480-1845, E-mail: [email protected]). The IBIDS contains over 460,000 scientific citations and summaries about dietary supplements and nutrition as well as references to published international, scientific literature on dietary supplements such as vitamins, minerals, and botanicals.7 The IBIDS includes references and citations to both human and animal research studies. As a service of the ODS, access to the IBIDS database is available free of charge at the following Web address: http://ods.od.nih.gov/databases/ibids.html. Once you have entered the search area, you have three choices: (1) IBIDS Consumer Database, (2) Full IBIDS Database, or (3) Peer Reviewed Citations Only. Now that you have selected a database, click on the “Advanced” tab. An advanced search allows you to retrieve up to 100 fully explained references in a comprehensive format. Type “muscles” (or synonyms) into the search box, and click “Go.” To narrow the search, you can also select the “Title” field. 7 Adapted from http://ods.od.nih.gov. IBIDS is produced by the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) at the National Institutes of Health to assist the public, healthcare providers, educators, and researchers in locating credible, scientific information on dietary supplements. IBIDS was developed and will be maintained through an interagency partnership with the Food and Nutrition Information Center of the National Agricultural Library, U.S. Department of Agriculture.

163 CHAPTER 3. ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE AND MUSCLES Overview In this chapter, we will begin by introducing you to official information sources on complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) relating to muscles. At the conclusion of this chapter, we will provide additional sources. The Combined Health Information Database The Combined Health Information Database (CHID) is a bibliographic database produced by health-related agencies of the U.S. federal government (mostly from the National Institutes of Health) that can offer concise information for a targeted search. The CHID database is updated four times a year at the end of January, April, July, and October. Check the titles, summaries, and availability of CAM-related information by using the “Simple Search” option at the following Web site: http://chid.nih.gov/simple/simple.html. In the drop box at the top, select “Complementary and Alternative Medicine.” Then type “muscles” (or synonyms) in the second search box. We recommend that you select 100 “documents per page” and to check the “whole records” options. The following was extracted using this technique: • Alternative Medicine Handbook: The Complete Reference Guide to Alternative and Complementary Therapies Source: New York, NY: W.W. Norton. 1998. 340 p. Contact: Available from W.W. Norton and Company, Inc. 500 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10110. (212) 354-5500; FAX: 212-869-0856. PRICE: $25.00. ISBN: 0393045668. Summary: This book describes 53 major alternative and complementary medicine practices. It does not recommend treatments, but instead provides information about their backgrounds, goals, benefits, and risks to help the reader make informed choices. It is divided into seven sections addressing different categories of alternative and complementary treatments: (1) traditional healing methods, which typically are ancient approaches that offer remedies in the context of spiritual or lifestyle guidance; (2) dietary and herbal remedies; (3) methods that involve active use of the mind to heal the body; (4) biologic therapies involving unproven pharmacologic and other types of

164 Muscles medication; (5) bodywork, involving manipulation of muscles and bones; (6) use of the senses to enhance well-being; and (7) the application of external energies to restore health. Each section contains several chapters, each of which include a brief introduction, a description of the alternative or complementary therapy, and information about the claims of practitioners, theories or beliefs upon which the therapy is based, available research, potential benefits, and where to find additional information. This book contains a list of complementary therapies for common ailments, a glossary, a list of professional degrees and titles, and an index. National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) of the National Institutes of Health (http://nccam.nih.gov/) has created a link to the National Library of Medicine’s databases to facilitate research for articles that specifically relate to muscles and complementary medicine. To search the database, go to the following Web site: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/nccam/camonpubmed.html. Select “CAM on PubMed.” Enter “muscles” (or synonyms) into the search box. Click “Go.” The following references provide information on particular aspects of complementary and alternative medicine that are related to muscles: Additional Web Resources A number of additional Web sites offer encyclopedic information covering CAM and related topics.
