Summary: | This study investigated the effectiveness of Malaysian Acacia honey drink ingested
before, during and post exercise on physiological responses, blood glucose
metabolism, urine osmolality and running time-trial performance in the heat. The first
phase of this study found that honey drink and sports drink ingestion before and during
exercise elicited similar effects on physiological responses, blood parameters and
running performance in the heat. The second phase of the study found that honey drink
during dehydration after exercise elicited benefiCial effect on running performance and
selected physiological parameters. Therefore, Acacia honey drink, a local Malaysian
product, can be proposed to be used as an alternative ergogenic aid before, during
and post exercise for athletes who train and compete in hot environment. |
