Carbohydrate and exercise performance: the role of multiple transportable carbohydrates
Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Carbohydrate feeding has been shown to be ergogenic, but recently substantial advances have been made in optimizing the guidelines for carbohydrate intake during prolonged exercise. RECENT FINDINGS: It was found that limitations to carbohydrate oxidation were in the absorptive process most likely because of a saturation of carbohydrate transporters. By using a combination of carbohydrates that use different intestinal transporters for absorption it was shown that carbohydrate delivery and oxidation could be increased. Studies demonstrated increases in exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates of up to 65% of glucose: fructose compared with glucose only. Exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates reach values of 1.75 g/min whereas previously it was thought that 1 g/min was the absolute maximum. The increased carbohydrate oxidation with multiple transportable carbohydrates was accompanied by increased fluid delivery and improved oxidation efficiency, and thus the likelihood of gastrointestinal distress may be diminished. Studies also demonstrated reduced fatigue and improved exercise performance with multiple transportable carbohydrates compared with a single carbohydrate. SUMMARY: Multiple transportable carbohydrates, ingested at high rates, can be beneficial during endurance sports in which the duration of exercise is 3 h or more.

“The rate of intake of CHO during exercise is a key factor in determining exogenous CHO oxidation, with the intestinal absorption of CHO being the limiting factor in gut delivery and subsequent utilisation in the muscle.”

In the citing paper
“the pre-intervention rates of exogenous CHO use in our population (mean peak of 1.47 g/min) are high in absolute comparison to findings from other studies using similar tracer technology (~1.2–1.4 g/min) [68,69].”

In the citing paper
“The use of “multiple transportable CHOs” (combinations of CHO sources with non-competing intestinal absorption mechanisms) represents a solution to this gut bottleneck and has been associated with high rates of exogenous CHO oxidation during laboratory exercise (for review, see [68,69])”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
