Hi everyone, 
Today's episode I review a paper that uses Salivary Alpha Amylase and Cortisol as biomarkers to help explain competition readiness is athletes.  As both of these metabolites can now be analysed real-time this has great advantage.  The paper I review is called:
Salivary alpha-amylase response to competition: relation to gender, previous experience, and attitudes.
Journal: Psychoneuroendocrinology. 2006 Jul;31(6):703-14. Epub 2006 Apr 18.
