Abstract des Autors

Many athletes think that their performance is helped by a high-sugar snack shortly before competition. To test this theory, the authors studied the effect of a preexercise snack on the duration to exhaustion and the changes that occur to blood glucose and blooc lactate. Five college distance runners rode a bicycle ergometer to exhaustion - once after a glucose drink and once after drinking an equal volume of sugar-free, caffeine-free cola. Exercise time to exhaustion was 25 longer without the sugar drink than with it. Verf.-Referat
