Influence of the type of carbohydrate breakfasts on metabolism and endurance running capacity in man.
Year: 1999
Type: dissertation
Abstract: Compared to the overnight fasted state, a high carbohydrate (CHO) breakfast 3-4 hours\nbefore exercise enhances endurance performance. However, the optimal type or\ncomposition of the pre-exercise meal to be consumed is less clear. Glycaemic and\ninsulinaemic responses to a meal play a key role in subsequent metabolism during exercise.\nThe investigations described in this thesis focused on the influence of I) the composition\nand 2) glycaemic index (GI) of CHO breakfasts 3 hours before exercise on postprandial and\nexercise metabolism and endurance running capacity [continued]…
