Dose caffeinated energy drink is a consideration issue for endurance performance.

Caffeinated energy drinks are commonly taken to improve exercise performance, but there are few studies on the influence of different doses on an athlete's performance. We conducted a double-blind, randomized, counter-balanced, and crossover research study to examine the effects of low caffeinated energy drink (Low ED) or high caffeinated energy drink (High ED) supplement on the performance, haematological response, and oxidative stress in triathletes. Twelve male participants underwent three testing sessions separated by weekly intervals, consisting of sprint triathlon training (0.

Aging effects on glycemic control and inflammation for politicians in Taiwan.

Unlabelled: Insulin sensitivity is deteriorating with age leading to many metabolic complications, yet fasting glucose is the common metabolic predictor in preventive medicine. In this study we compared the differences in fasting glucose, glucose tolerance, and inflammatory markers between two generations in politically active families. Their physical activity levels and dietary intake amounts were also evaluated.

The role of DHEA-S in the mood adjustment against negative competition outcome in golfers.

Several lines of evidence suggest that dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-S) is invariably consumed following different types of acute stress, implicating its role in stress coping and recovery. The role of DHEA-S in the mood adjustment against negative outcome for athletic competition has not previously been investigated. In the current study, 14 elite golfers participating in a major national golf tournament were subsequently divided into two groups according to their competition outcomes: made the cut (n=8) and failed to make the cut (n 8).
