Abstract/Summary:
his study assessed the plasma glucose (PG) and insulin (INS) responses, during exercise in the heat, to carbohydrate (CHO) ingestion in a hypohydrated state versus oral or intravenous (IV) rehydration with saline solutions. It also compared the efficacy of the different methods of rehydration in alleviating the detrimental effects of hypohydration on subsequent exercise in a hot environment.;Exercise duration in NF was significantly shorter (p ;It was concluded that no differences existed in the efficacy of the different rehydration methods to prolong exercise tolerance in the heat. However, NF resulted in decreased exercise endurance. In addition the ;Eight male subjects (age, 21.8...
