Abstract

Dietary guidelines for achieving optimal muscle glycogen storage after prolonged exercise have been given in terms of absolute carbohydrate (CHO) intake (8-10 g.kg-1.day-1). However, it is of further interest to determine whether the addition of fat and protein to carbohydrate feedings affects muscle glycogen storage. Eight well-trained triathletes [23.1 +/- 2.0 (SE) yr; 74.0 +/- 3.4 kg; peak O2 consumption = 4.7 +/- 0.4 l/min] undertook an exercise trial (2 h at 75% peak O2 consumption, followed by four 30-s sprints) on three occasions, each 1 wk apart. For 24 h after each trial, the subjects rested and were assigned to the following diets in randomized order: control (C) diet (high glycemic index CHO foods; CHO = 7 g.kg-1.day-1), added fat and protein (FP) diet (C diet + 1.6 g.kg-1.day-1 fat + 1.2 g.kg-1.day-1 protein), and matched-energy diet [C diet + 4.8 g.kg-1.day-1 additional CHO (Polycose) to match the additional energy in the FP diet]. Meals were eaten at t = 0, 4, 8, and 21 h of recovery. The total postprandial incremental plasma glucose area was significantly reduced after the FP diet (P < 0.05). Serum free fatty acid and plasma triglyceride responses were significantly elevated during the FP trial (P < 0.05). There were no differences between trials in muscle glycogen storage over 24 h (C, 85.8 +/- 2.7 mmol/kg wet wt; FP, 80.5 +/- 8.2 mmol/kg wet wt; matched-energy, 87.9 +/- 7.0 mmol/kg wet wt).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

  • A glycogen storage threshold appears to occur at a daily CHO intake of ~7-10 g/kg body mass.

    “Synthesising data from a range of studies that have monitored glycogen storage over 24 h following exercise-induced depletion, including two dose-response studies (19, 28), a 'glycogen storage threshold' appears to occur at a daily CHO intake of ~7-10 g/kg body mass (BM) (24).”

  • The addition of fat and protein (0.4 g/kg and 0.3 g/kg BM per meal, respectively) to a diet containing adequate CHO to achieve maximal glycogen storage over 24 h of refueling fails to increase rates of glycogen synthesis.

    “In the only available study involving endurance sport, the addition of fat and protein (0.4 g/kg and 0.3 g/kg BM per meal, respectively) to a diet containing adequate CHO to achieve maximal glycogen storage over 24 h of refueling failed to increase rates of glycogen synthesis despite markedly different responses in blood glucose and free fatty acid concentrations (19).”

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.
